−	The Republican forces hadn't been able to establish a foothold within any of the training facilities or the Military Region administrative headquarters, and as a result when they launched their campaign to take control of Epsilon Eridani they bombarded the Castle Brian housing the Military Region HQ with multiple nuclear weapons while also hitting the various training bases with a combination of nuclear and biological attacks. While these attacks were largely effective, the Republicans didn't manage to hit every training base, nor were they able to track down and hit every location where SLDF equipment was stored; they also failed to capture or destroy all of the war matériel stored across Epsilon Eridani awaiting shipping to the Periphery front. Epsilon Eridani subsequently became a hotbed for resistance against the Republican forces as the SLDF personnel who survived the initial attacks made use of the remaining equipment to form and lead resistance groups across the planet.<ref name="H:LoTV1p84+"/>	+	The Republican forces hadn't been able to establish a foothold within any of the training facilities or the Military Region administrative headquarters, and as a result when they launched their campaign to take control of Epsilon Eridani they bombarded the Castle Brian housing the Military Region HQ with multiple nuclear weapons while also hitting the various training bases with a combination of nuclear and biological attacks.

These people, primarily administrative, support and logistics personnel, posed a risk to the [[Rim Worlds Republic]] forces, which had already managed to occupy at least one [[Castle Brian]] on Epsilon Eridani prior to the Coup beginning.<ref name="H:LoTV1p84+"/> The Republican forces hadn't been able to establish a foothold within any of the training facilities or the Military Region administrative headquarters, and as a result when they launched their campaign to take control of Epsilon Eridani they bombarded the Castle Brian housing the Military Region HQ with multiple nuclear weapons while also hitting the various training bases with a combination of nuclear and biological attacks. While these attacks were largely effective, the Republicans didn't manage to hit every training base, nor were they able to track down and hit every location where SLDF equipment was stored; they also failed to capture or destroy all of the war materiel stored across Epsilon Eridani awaiting shipping to the Periphery front. Epsilon Eridani subsequently became a hotbed for resistance against the Republican forces and Stefan Amaris as the SLDF personnel who survived the initial attacks made use of the remaining equipment to form and lead resistance groups across the planet.<ref name="H:LoTV1p84+"/> The AEAF orbital bombardment of Epsilon Eridani included strikes on the planetary capital, Madison, which was located on Parassus; the bombardment almost levelled the city, including the Star League mint which was located in the city and was repsonsible for printing Capellan currency.<ref name=DARWp238/> === Succession Wars === ==== First Succession War ==== With the outbreak of fighting after the fall of the Star League, Epsilon Eridani surrendered itself to [[House Liao|House Liao's]] [[Ariana Grenadiers]] and [[Justinia's Cuirassiers]]. This was part of House Liao's first campaign during the [[First Succession War]] to claim former Terran Hegemony worlds between [[2780]] and [[2800]].<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 45, "Eridani E surrenders to Liao forces in 1st Succession War".</ref> ==== Third Succession War ==== In [[2944]], House Liao's [[first Chesterton Voltigeurs]] repelled a [[House Marik]] raid on Epsilon eridani. The unit had fended off the attack by Marik forces with heavy losses in air and ground support.<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 83, "1st Chesterton Voltigeurs" - Unit action during the Third Succession War on Epsilon Eridani.</ref> In the last years of the [[Third Succession War]], [[Laurel's Legion]] was able to make a blunt move to take the planet from [[House Davion]] forces in [[3024]].<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 83, "Laurel's Legion" - Unit profile shows it fending off Davion attack in 3024.</ref> ==== Fourth Succession War ==== Following negotiations between [[Colonel]] [[Pavel Ridzik]], chief military advisor to [[Chancellor]] [[Maximillian Liao]], and [[AFFS]] [[Lieutenant General]] [[Ardan Sortek]], conducted in February [[3029]] Ridzik created a new nation, the [[Tikonov Free Republic]]. The Republic was created by incorporating those worlds of the [[Tikonov Commonality]] that hadn't already been conquered during the first half of the [[Fourth Succession War]]. Ridzik returned to [[Elgin]], the new capital of the Tikonov Free Republic, on the 3rd of March 3029 and swiftly began implementing a new government consisting of family members, friends and other appointees loyal to himself, purging dissident elements on the various Republic worlds and taking the opportunity to settle old scores. Epsilon Eridani was one of the systems incorporated into the Republic.<ref name="FSWMAv2p16"/> === FedCom Civil War === In [[3062]], The mercenary unit [[The 48th]]'s Command lance took part in a conflict between rival factions on the Planet. They are then reported to be cleared of all wrongdoings by the local authorities when evidence of their employers’ corruption came to light after the conflict.<ref name=MSU_24>''Mercenaries Supplemental Update - The 48th'', p. 24</ref> In [[3067]] two mercenary units, the [[Lone Star Regiment]] and [[Redfield's Renegades]], were battling on Epsilon Eridani when they made a significant discovery. The fighting near the Shamus Mountains unearthed an old [[Star League Defense Force]] depot hidden within the mountains. Still intact within the Depot was a functioning ''[[Colossus (DropShip)|Colossus]]''-class [[DropShip]] in pristine condition. Both mercenary units immediately laid claim to the DropShip, and with neither willing to compromise a gruelling combat was initiated that saw both units take heavy casualties. Ultimately, the Lone Star Regiment were the victors and recovered both the DropShip and the battlefield salvage as prizes.<ref name="TRO3075p198">''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 198, "Colossus"</ref> === The Jihad === The [[Word of Blake]] assimilated Epsilon Eridani into their [[Word of Blake Protectorate|Protectorate]] early in the [[Jihad]], and it would remain a Blakist world until February [[3078]]. Forces from the [[Federated Suns]] front of [[Operation SCOUR]] liberated Epsilon Eridani on the 22nd of February after a fiercely fought week-long battle against the defending Blakist forces.<ref name="J:FRp58">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 58, "The Jihad in Review"</ref> The assault on Epsilon Eridani was one of - if not the - first assault to be performed on the Federated Suns front since command of the front passed to [[Marshal]] [[Jon Davion]] following the death of [[Field Marshal]] [[Katheryn Sandoval-Ito]] on [[Acamar]]. Leading Group II of the Federated Suns front personally, Davion deployed the allied coalition forces via a combined arms sub-orbital drop strategy that he had developed during his time at [[Sakhara Academy]]. The drop allowed the coalition forces to strike directly at the Blakist leadership on Epsilon Eridani, decapitating the [[Word of Blake]] forces on the planet within the first 24 hours of combat operations and restoring civil law to the capital within a week.<ref name="JHS:Tp71">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 71, "Epsilon Eridani Liberated"</ref> The Federated Suns News Service held up the smooth transition in leadership between Sandoval-Ito and Davion as an example of how closely the [[Marshal of the Armies]] had been involved in planning the Federated Suns front of SCOUR, and held up the quick campaign by Group III as an example of how the Group was a genuinely integrated force. The FSNS also included a human interest piece to substantiate the claim for easy integration, detailing an American Football match on Epsilon Eridani on or around the 22nd of February that saw a team consisting of members of [[Clan Nova Cat|Clan Nova Cat's]] [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Nova Cat)|Delta Galaxy]] augmented by personnel from the [[Drake's Drivers]] mercenary unit on one side and a [[LAAF]] offensive line on the other team, backed up by runners and receivers from the [[Benjamin Regulars]] and fielding a [[Com Guard]] quarterback.<ref name="JHS:Tp71"/> === The Dark Age === The city of Madison, rebuilt after the Amaris Civil War, continued to serve as planetary capital during the rule of the Republic of the Sphere. Madison was located 370km northwest of Dori, the large port city located on the shores of Lake Arous which was itself the center of Epsilon Eridani's commercial industry.<ref name=DARWp238/> The largest of the various industries on Epsilon Eridani was Kressly Technologies - the renamed Kressly Warworks - who operated a number of manufacturing facilities across the planet, including an [[IndustrialMech]] manufacturing plant; Kressly expanded their presence on Epsilon Eridani when they established an aerospace plant in the Goushan Highlands on the site of a former surface testing facility. The facility had been a testing facility for the [[Harvard Company]], a Star League-era [[aerospace fighter]] manufacturer which had been destroyed during fighting between the Capellan Confederation and the [[Federated Suns]] during the [[First Succession War]], and the facility had largely been forgotten until Kressly redeveloped it.<ref name=DARWp238/> == Political Affiliation == * [[2208]] -

The two major continents are the southern continent of Gousha, which is divided primarily into a mix of swamplands and rainforest, and the northern continent of Parassus, which is rockier and drier than Gousha but still prone to frequent rain.
