− However, the first action seen was against the [[Federated Suns]] instead of Star League forces. The Taurian forces faked retreat and lured the Federated Suns into an early strike which ended up cutting off their main fleet by a Taurian blockade. The resulting battles cost the Federated Suns over two dozen warships with minor losses (three ships) for the Concordat. The assault began in the [[Tentativa]] system, where half of the [[AFFS]] WarShip fleet arrived.<ref>''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 67</ref> The Taurians then jumped their WarShips into the [[Panpour]] system, wrecked it, and withdrew. In the meantime the AFFS WarShips (Task Force Four), had jumped into several Taurian systems, destroyed the few defending WarShips, and then returned to the Tentativa system. There the Taurians lured the Task Force deep into the system, and then had WarShips from five surrounding systems jump in to attack. The AFFS' Task Force Four eventually fought its way free, but in the process lost thirty-nine WarShips. Twenty-eight were destroyed or scuttled, while the Taurians captured another eleven. This was roughly three quarters of the AFFS WarShip fleet, while the Taurians lost three WarShips.<ref>''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 68</ref> + However, the first action seen was against the [[Federated Suns]] instead of Star League forces.
