Planetary History

Discovery and Settlement

In August 24th, 2786 the Exodus Fleet of the SLDF led by General Aleksandr Kerensky discovered Dagda and rest of the star systems that makes up what they would call the Pentagon Worlds. Dagda was first settled on the 17th of September by first eager and ship weary passengers and soldiers of SLDF.[10] Dagda was the fourth world of the Pentagon to be settled, it was named by settlers for Irish pantheon of luck. The planet, due to rich mineral resources became the principle mining world for what became the Star League-In-Exile. The Exiles settlers used high-tech life support equipment to exploit the uplands where the atmosphere of the planet was very thin.

Pentagon/Exodus Civil War and Devastation

The Exodus Civil War in 2801, the war devastated the population, specially those who depended on the sophisticated life support system.[11]

Operation Klondike

The 4 Clans assigned to liberate Dagda during Operation Klondike were Clan Burrock, Clan Fire Mandrill, Clan Goliath Scorpion, and Clan Widowmaker.
