Acrux was the target of a two-pronged invasion of the [[Free Worlds League]] by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] in the [[First Succession War]]; [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Thaddeus Marik (29th c.)|Thaddeus Marik]] was concerned enough with the prospect of Acrux being captured—Acrux being an important industrial world at the time—that in [[2811]] he attempted to launch a counterinvasion to block the Lyran campaign.

Succession Wars

Acrux was the target of a two-pronged invasion of the Free Worlds League by the Lyran Commonwealth in the First Succession War; Captain-General Thaddeus Marik was concerned enough with the prospect of Acrux being captured—Acrux being an important industrial world at the time—that in 2811 he attempted to launch a counterinvasion to block the Lyran campaign. Marik's first target was the world of Poulsbo, which was the location of the crack Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces regiment known as The Stealths. Despite their best efforts, the Free Worlds League Military only managed to destroy Lyran aerospace fighters, not any of the DropShips or JumpShips transporting The Stealths, and the losses suffered in turn were so heavy that the counterstrike had to be called off.[31]
