The planet Cascade was one of the initial targets of the Skye and Bolan Province invasion of the Free Worlds League in March 3068. Named [[Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], the invasion began on the 10th of March with attacks on Cascade, [[Megrez]] and [[Togwotee]]. The Lyrans would only hold Cascade for a few weeks; when Marshall [[Jeremy Brett]] assumed control of the local [[FWLM]] forces and launched [[Operation Broken Fist|Operation BROKEN FIST]], the [[Free Worlds League]] counterattack against the invading Lyran forces, Cascade was one of targets for the second wave of attacks, and the FWLM had recaptured the world by the 24th of July.<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

Following the dissolution of the Free Worlds League in January 3079, elements within the Lyran Alliance moved to annex a number of former League worlds between August and September that year. Cascade was one of seven worlds conquered during this period, and the invasion only stopped when [[Archon]] [[Adam Steiner]] declared that any other bouts of what he termed "unauthorized adventurism" would be considered an act of treason.<ref name="J:FRp60">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 60: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>
