Planetary History

Rim Worlds Republic

Steelton was originally a part of the Apollo Province of the Rim Worlds Republic and was conquered by the Lyran Commonwealth during the 2773 - 2775 Republic-Commonwealth war.[1]

Clan Invasion of 3050

In April of 3050, Clan Jade Falcon dispatched the 8th and the 12th Falcon Regulars Clusters to take Steelton. The world's defenses were lead by Colonel Francis "Crab" Carranza, commandeding the planet's militia force and the 1st Regiment of the 12th Star Guards. Colonel Carranza bluffed the Jade Falcon forces by making it appear he had brigade of forces defending the planet. The inflated number of troops forced the bidding Jade Falcon commander to call in reinforcements which ultimately led to the Colonel's demise. The Falcons targetted the planet's capital city of Cregan's Bluff as the main objective; in course of the battle the 12th Star Guards positions were overrun by Falcon forces, but the 12th managed to hold their positions long enough for elements of the Star Guards and the surviving militia forces to evacuate the planet, but couldn't prevent the death of Colonel Carranza.[2]
