* '''1 Jan [[2407]]''' The [[Draconis Combine]] attacked and overwhelmed the minor [[Lyran Commonwealth]] defenders on many border worlds. A follow-up wave poured through the hole made, pushing for the Lyran capital world of [[Arcturus]]. However, this was only a diversion. The Kuritan plan actually was to lunge towards [[Arcturus]], then turn sharply and head straight for [[Terra]], dividing the Commonwealth into sections.<ref name=HSp13/>

* '''[[2407]] VEGA STRIKE''' - [[Archon]] [[Alistair Marsden]] got a sudden flash of intuition concerning Kurita's next move. A second Combine prong was slated for the LC invasion. These two prongs were to meet up somewhere in the LC interior, isolating large regions to be annexed to the Combine. Surmising that a second wave would be launched from the world of [[Vega]], Marsden collected all the forces he'd held back in reserve for one massive strike at the Vegan staging ground. In the middle of preparing for their role in the LC invasion, the Vegan forces were taken by complete surprise, and able to mount only token resistance, before Marsden's forces plowed through them and to the actual holding facilities, where firing indiscriminately, large stockpiles of brand new military hardware were destroyed and countless crates of ammunition and other expendables blown up.<ref name=HSp13/>
