Planetary History

In August 3050 Vipaava was invaded by Clan Ghost Bear as a part of Operation REVIVAL, the Clan invasion of the Inner Sphere. The invading forces were drawn from the Fourteenth Battle Cluster, which deployed Alpha Battle Star of the Twenty-third Battle Trinary and Alpha Nova Star of the Seventy-sixth Supernova to capture the planet. The Ghost Bear forces issued a batchall and were surprised to find the defending Twenty-second Rasalhagian Free Company not only waited to engage them at the Lion's Den rock outcropping, well away from the nearest city on Vipaava, but then fought in an honorable fashion. Alpha Nova Star engaged the Twenty-second first and swiftly decimated the KungsArmé forces, forcing the survivors to surrender. The defeat of the Twenty-second was a major factor in convincing senior officers in the KungsArmé that winning a straight fight against Clan forces was impossible, and that new tactics would be needed.[1]
