Planetary History

First Succession War

Odell was invaded during the second half of the major invasion into the Federated Suns launched by the Draconis Combine in May 2791.[9] When word began to spread of the genocide being conducted on Kentares IV by Coordinator Jinjiro Kurita, Armed Forces of the Federated Suns units began to launch vengeful cross-border attacks and raids in retaliation against the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery. The first to cross the border were the Third Deneb Light Cavalry, the Seventh Crucis Lancers and the Twentieth Syrtis Fusiliers - all units with recent ties to Kentares. Hitting various worlds near Goderich in October 2797, by mid-November the three commands had liberated both Logandale and Marlette, breaking the DCMS defensive lines on both worlds. Other units were quickly following suit, with AFFS troops landing on Bristol in November, and in December AFFS units near New Avalon launched assaults on both Delavan and Odell, throwing themselves at the leading edge of the Combine invasion. These early attacks were heralds of the AFFS shaking off the low morale of earlier years, and the beginning of a resurgence that would see the AFFS recapture most of the systems lost to the Combine.[35]

Jihad

Since 3075, Nigel Simpson had been stalking Baroness Sandra Foster-Glades both at her home and her public appearances, with two dozen documented confrontations between them.

Simpson had been claiming to be the baroness' lover, though this claim was disputed by all members of the family.

Already in prision for thirteen months on previous convictions, finally the trial against him was completed on the 22nd of July 3080. Planetary Judge Thomas Ruynon sentenced him to 25 years in prision, thanks to the great work of the Baroness layer Manny Fagan and with the disgust of Simpson's defender Deborah Jacobs.[28]

Military Deployment
