Planetary History
The Age of War
In 2427 the Lyran Commonwealth launched another campaign against the Free Worlds League, beginning with landing troops on Bolan. The Lyran forces seized Bolan and dug in, while further attacks captured the League worlds of Dixie and Kamenz, leading the Free Worlds League Parliament to disband the War Powers Act and install Terrence Marik as Captain-General in response.[7]
Star League Era
During the Star League era a Castle Brian was established on Dixie; the subsequent discovery of the existence of this facility was enough to invite an invasion during the Succession Wars.[1]
The Jihad
For most of the Jihad Dixie served as a Lyran Alliance Armed Forces storage depot and launching point for raids into the Free Worlds League.[1] Following the invasion of the Free Worlds League by the Skye and Bolan Provinces of the Lyran Alliance in what was termed Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN, Marshall Jeremy Brett took command of the local FWLM and launched a counteroffensive, under the name Operation BROKEN FIST. BROKEN FIST went beyond simply attempting to recapture worlds that the Lyrans had seized, striking into Lyran space at numerous worlds. Dixie was one of the worlds hit and was overrun by the League forces on the 10th of September 3068.[8]
By the end of the Jihad the LAAF had begun repairing the Castle Brian located on Dixie, despite it having been picked clean long before.[1]
