In the city of New Davies the pirates used some of their BattleMechs to distract the city police and militia while the rest of the band looted every bank and repository in the city. On the way out of the city the 'Mechs walked through three hospitals and one school. In Bainbridge the Boys tried a new tactic. Instead of cowing the police and militia with their 'Mechs, they detoured around the city and destroyed the electrical junctions at the fusion plants that supply Bainbridge with electrical power. They then proceeded directly to the food storage facilities and set them ablaze, which drew most of the emergency responders away from the city itself. They were able to loot with impunity. The Boys were finally brought to justice in [[3038]] by a detachment of the [[Eighth Lyran Regulars]], and all of them were executed after being convicted by tribunal for crimes against humanity.<ref name=Nickel_Boys>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [24/08/3071]: "Memory of Attack Still Vivid"''</ref> ====The Jihad==== With the destruction of [[Alarion]] and the shipyards there, Gibbs was a critical industrial site for the [[Lyran Alliance]] during the late [[Jihad]], as the shipyards here represented the Alliance's only [[JumpShip]] production facilities, as well as the only facilities capable of supporting the Alliance's diminished [[WarShip]] fleet.<ref name="J:FRp85A">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 85: "Alarion (Buena) Province"</ref><ref name="J:FRp85B">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 85: "Donegal Province"</ref><ref name=OBLA24/> ===Military Deployment=== ====3085==== * [[First Royal Guards]] [[RCT]]<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 108: "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> ====3145==== * [[Sixteenth Lyran Regulars]]<ref name=FM:3145p133>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 133: "Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces - Donegal Province"</ref> ===Geography=== Gibbs has three continents named Murray, Pablo, and Perrette.
