====Third Succession War====
 +
In [[3020]], the Free Worlds League attempted to set a trap for the mercenary unit [[Snord's Irregulars]], in retaliation for the number of successful raids and campaigns against the League that the Irregulars had either performed or supported. The League plan involved redeploying the Third Battalion of the [[Second Free Worlds Guards]] to McAffe and spreading rumors that a number of priceless artworks, including a number captured from the Irregulars' museum on [[Clinton]] in [[3017]], were being held in a facility on the Kincaid Peninsula on McAffe. The intent was to lure [[Cranston Snord]] into bringing the Irregulars to McAffe to retrieve the artworks, at which point the Third Battalion, commanded by [[Force Commander]] [[Simon Beckner]], would ambush and destroy the Irregulars.<ref name="Dispatch">''Dispatch''</ref>
 +
 
 +
Snord took the bait, but managed to outfox the ambushers; using one of the rakshasa storms common to McAffe as cover, Snord had his [['Mechs]] enter the ocean at Marggraf's Harbor and then walk across the ocean floor to the Kincaid Peninsula before jumping from the seaward shelf into the rear area of the Third Battalion. They quickly destroyed a [[lance]] of Free Worlds Guards 'Mechs, causing the other lances to withdraw, before securing the artworks and leaving McAffe—and leaving the destroyed 'Mechs behind for the Free Worlds Guards to salvage. Snord went so far as to send a taunting message to [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik (30th c.)|Janos Marik]] about the Irregulars successful retrieval of the artifacts—including a toy dog that had belonged to [[w:Elvis Presley|Elvis Presley]]—on returning to the Irregulars base on Clinton. Force Commander Beckner was reduced in rank to [[captain]] and recalled to [[Atreus (FWL)|Atreus]] for a board of inquiry for his failure.<ref name="Dispatch"/>

 +
====The Jihad====
 +
The planet McAffe was one of the targets of the Skye and Bolan Province invasion of the Free Worlds League in [[3068]]. The invasion by the combined forces of the two Provinces, named [[Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], saw McAffe occupied along with the worlds of [[Preston (FWL)|Preston]] and [[Rexburg]] by 20 May 3068. The Lyrans would only hold McAffe for a few weeks; when Marshall [[Jeremy Brett]] assumed control of the local [[FWLM]] forces and launched [[Operation BROKEN FIST]], the Free Worlds League counterattack against the invading Lyran forces, McAffe was one of his first targets, and the FWLM recaptured the world on the 2nd of July.<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

Planetary History[edit]

Third Succession War[edit]

In 3020, the Free Worlds League attempted to set a trap for the mercenary unit Snord's Irregulars, in retaliation for the number of successful raids and campaigns against the League that the Irregulars had either performed or supported. The League plan involved redeploying the Third Battalion of the Second Free Worlds Guards to McAffe and spreading rumors that a number of priceless artworks, including a number captured from the Irregulars' museum on Clinton in 3017, were being held in a facility on the Kincaid Peninsula on McAffe. The intent was to lure Cranston Snord into bringing the Irregulars to McAffe to retrieve the artworks, at which point the Third Battalion, commanded by Force Commander Simon Beckner, would ambush and destroy the Irregulars.[13]

Snord took the bait, but managed to outfox the ambushers; using one of the rakshasa storms common to McAffe as cover, Snord had his 'Mechs enter the ocean at Marggraf's Harbor and then walk across the ocean floor to the Kincaid Peninsula before jumping from the seaward shelf into the rear area of the Third Battalion. They quickly destroyed a lance of Free Worlds Guards 'Mechs, causing the other lances to withdraw, before securing the artworks and leaving McAffe—and leaving the destroyed 'Mechs behind for the Free Worlds Guards to salvage. Snord went so far as to send a taunting message to Captain-General Janos Marik about the Irregulars successful retrieval of the artifacts—including a toy dog that had belonged to Elvis Presley—on returning to the Irregulars base on Clinton. Force Commander Beckner was reduced in rank to captain and recalled to Atreus for a board of inquiry for his failure.[13]

The Jihad[edit]

The planet McAffe was one of the targets of the Skye and Bolan Province invasion of the Free Worlds League in 3068. The invasion by the combined forces of the two Provinces, named Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN, saw McAffe occupied along with the worlds of Preston and Rexburg by 20 May 3068. The Lyrans would only hold McAffe for a few weeks; when Marshall Jeremy Brett assumed control of the local FWLM forces and launched Operation BROKEN FIST, the Free Worlds League counterattack against the invading Lyran forces, McAffe was one of his first targets, and the FWLM recaptured the world on the 2nd of July.[10]
