− The world of [[Restitution]] was expected to be a difficult target for the 57th Brigade; the third world to be targeted in the first year of the [[Star League]] invasion of the Magistracy, intelligence highlighted that the world had an advanced communications net and an industry geared around the media that provided the world with experts in communications, data delivery and video manipulation. The planetary defenses had been built up in anticipation of an attack and the capital city of Magdeburg was surrounded by artificial and natural defenses. The 57th were allocated the majority of the AeroSpace assets from the [[58th Brigade]] to assist them in achieving air superiority over Magdeburg so allow for the 57th to make a direct assault on the city, bypassing the bulk of the prepared defenses. The plan was a complete success - in large part due to the fact that only token resistance was offered; the 55th secured the city, only to discover that there was no sign of the [[Magistracy Armed Forces]] units expected to be defending the world. While the SLDF had been preparing to conquer Restitution, the planetary defenders had redeployed and would appear two weeks later in the [[Cranston]] system, bloodying the 58th Brigade.<ref name="H:RWp148"/><ref name="H:RWp97">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 97-98, "Restitution and Cranston (October-November 2577)"</ref> + The world of [[Restitution]] was expected to be a difficult target for the 57th Brigade; the third world to be targetted in the first year of the [[Star League]] invasion of the Magistracy, intelligence highlighted that the world had an advanced communications net and an industry geared around the media that provided the world with experts in communications, data delivery and video manipulation.
