Overview

In 2725 the Draconis Combine struck across the Federated Suns border at the world of Marduk, First Lord Jonathan Cameron refused to commit the SLDF to stop the fighting, leaving the Federated Suns to fend for itself. Prince Joseph, without considering all the implications, ordered the commander of the Draconis March, General Kessem, to launch a deep strike into Draconis Combine territory. General Kessem got as far as Ludwig before running into significant opposition, and the realization that the Combine were launching their own deep strike towards New Avalon. Fortunately, Kessem was able to conquer Ludwig after a one-year campaign, forcing the over-extended DCMS advance to a halt.[1][2]
