Overview

After the failed Dieron Strike Katana Tormark needed to secure materials to support her coming war effort. Addicks was chosen as one of the worlds to be raided. Landing on the 3rd of November, the Dragon's Fury launched an assault to capture the planetary oil fields. The Fury's attack on the Weyland Industrial Complex near Neo Cartagia was repulsed by forces from the Northwind Highlanders, stationed near the oil fields by Tara Campbell in anticipation of just such an attack.[1]


The oil fields would be contested again in April 3133, when the Spirit Cats successfully defeated the Highlander contingent who'd managed to hold off the Fury several months before.
