===Planetary History===

====Star League era====
 +
After the [[Amaris Coup]], the system was the site of a space battle. There, Rim Republic warships managed to intercept and destroy the SLDF warship [[TAS Dreadnought]].<ref>''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1'', p. 78</ref>
  
Opening Statement: "Planet1 is the [orbital number] planet in the SystemName system [and is the regional capital of the FactionName6's Region5 district]. On the surface, the planet hosts CompanyName7's FactoryName8 industrial facility [and the summer palace of ImportantPerson9], while the Industrial Satellite4 facility orbits its moon, Moon10.
+
====First Succession War====
-->
+
Wyatt was annexed by the [[Free Worlds League]] early in the [[First Succession War]], but the [[Marik Militia]] forces assigned to Wyatt withdrew in late [[2790]], leaving the planet open to conquest. The League had honored the titles of the [[House Roark|Roark family]] on Wyatt when the world was annexed from the [[Terran Hegemony]], in exchange for the Roark's fealty. That fealty was tested when two [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] [[regiments]]—the [[Fourth Donegal Guards]] and [[Fifth Lyran Guards]]—arrived to annex the planet in January [[2791]]. A Lyran negotiator attempted to persuade [[Baroness]] [[Althea Roark]] to switch her allegiance to the [[Lyran Commonwealth]], the previous Baron—Althea's husband—having left with the [[Star League Defense Force]] on the [[Operation EXODUS|Exodus]]. But Althea's son and daughter, former [[Captain]] Stephan Roark of the SLDF and his sister Dana, were opposed to breaking their oaths to [[House Marik]], as was Stephan's uncle, retired SLDF [[General]] Bartolomeo Roark. The defending forces on Wyatt consisted of the [[Wyatt Militia (FWL)|Wyatt Militia]]—a force that can muster barely four [[lance]]s of [['Mech]]s—and the personal 'Mechs of House Roark, which were dispersed around the various Roark landholdings across the world. Stephan and his allies fought against the annexation, but were undercut by the Baroness, who aligned House Roark with the Commonwealth to preserve the family's position on Wyatt.<ref name=ASP/>
 +
 
 +
====Third Succession War====
 +
In July [[2868]], the [[Free Worlds League]] once again attacked Wyatt.  Elements of the [[12th Marik Militia]] clashed with the [[6th Lyran Regulars] within the Napier County area.  The two units became mired down into a giant melee that would force both units to be disbanded after reinforcements for both sides arrived on world.<ref name=BSLR3>''BattleCorps Scenario: Lead Rainmakers'', p. 3: "Aftermath"</ref>
 +
 
 +
In [[2991]], the [[Free Worlds League]] launched [[Battle of Wyatt (2991)|a retaliation raid]] against the Commonwealth forces on Wyatt.  The purpose of this attack was to capture several ''[[Chippewa]]'' fighters for study.  Several [[Dispossessed]] pilots with infantry support were dropped in secret on world.  This team then infiltrated an airfield and flew off with six ''Chippewa'' fighters.  Only four of these fighters eventually made it to Marik space and were later put into service with the Free Worlds League Military.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3025'', p. 162</ref>
 +
 
 +
[[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik]] sent the [[Beta Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Beta Regiment]] and [[Gamma Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Gamma Regiment]]s of [[Wolf's Dragoons]] to raid Wyatt in [[3016]].  The opening attacks from the Dragoons targeted and destroyed a key command and control center that the Lyran's had thought was in a secret location.  In the initial confusion from the attack, the Dragoons hit several targets and then faded away into the rugged terrain that made up the desert world.  However, the defending [[Eleventh Lyran Guards]] and [[Seventeenth Arcturan Guards]] recovered quickly and flooded likely hiding spaces with reconnaissance drones, scout lances and heavy air cover.  For the Dragoons, what began as a raid became a deadly game of hide and seek in the ravines and valleys of Wyatt.
 +
 
 +
During the fighting on the ground, the Dragoons' [[DropShip]]s were stationed in-system ready to evacuate if necessary.  When the Lyrans finally found the Dragoons, the commanders of both regiments sent the order for the six [[Overlord]] Dropships to come pick them up. Lyran fighters immediately launched an assault against the incoming DropShips.  During the fighting, the [[Utah Beach]] and [[Sendalor]] were heavily damaged, but were able to land with the others in the Libre Valley to pick up the ground forces.  As the six ships lifted off, the Lyrans redoubled their efforts and the Sendalor was sent tumbling to the ground, taking a [[battalion]] of Wolf's Dragoons with it.<ref name=WDsp21/>
 +
 
 +
In recognition for these losses, Janos Marik sent [[Jaime Wolf]] a gold and firestone right engraved with "In memory of Sendalor".<ref name=WDsp22>''Wolf's Dragoons'', p. 22: "Raid And Counter-Raid"</ref>
 +
 
 +
====Fourth Succession War====
 +
In October [[3028]], Wyatt was targeted by the [[Free Worlds League Military]] as a part of [[Operation DAGGER]], the offensive planned by [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik]] to seize valuable industrial worlds in the [[Federation of Skye]]. Wyatt was a particular target of DAGGER because of the presence of two [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] line regiments, the Eleventh Lyran Guards and Seventeenth Arcturan Guards; while the [[Fifth Regulan Hussars]] and [[Twenty-fifth Marik Militia]] jumped into the Wyatt system intent on destroying both regiments, other [[FWLM]] regiments were capturing the [[Milton]] and [[Phecda]] systems in an effort to isolate the Lyran forces.<ref name="FSWMAv1p62">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', pp. 62–63: "Operation DAGGER"</ref>
 +
 
 +
Unfortunately for the two League regiments, the two Lyran regiments had been forewarned of the attack. The Hussars arrived at a [[pirate point]] allowing them to make an immediate drop on the surface of the planet, while the Militia appeared at the zenith [[jump point]]—only to find the Eleventh Lyran Guards waiting at the jump point, with the 'Mechs embarked on transports and [[aerospace fighter]]s patrolling. Before the Militia could launch fighters the Eleventh's aerospace fighters began strafing attacks, with pairs of ''[[Chippewa]]s'' and ''[[Lucifer]]s'' each launching a single attack before withdrawing. The cumulative damage destroyed two ''[[Union]]s'' and a ''[[Leopard]]''; worse still for the Militia, one of the DropShips was transporting a [[battalion]] command staff, and when it was destroyed, not only were those staff killed, but the [[DropShip]] then exploded, damaging a number of neighboring DropShips as they separated from their ''[[Invader]]''-class [[JumpShip]]. With the Militia forces frantically trying to form up, the Eleventh retrieved its fighters and jumped out to the [[Alchiba]] system, while the Arcturan Guards jumped for [[Cor Caroli]].<ref name="FSWMAv1p62"/> Although the plan to destroy the two Lyran regiments was unsuccessful, the League did capture Wyatt.<ref name="FSWMAv1p63">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 63: "Overview"</ref>

====The Jihad====
 +
A full eclipse with the planet's moon made for a full blackout that generated chaos on the planet.<ref name=eclipse/>
  
==Planetary History==
+
Following the invasion of the [[Free Worlds League]] by the Skye and Bolan Provinces of the [[Lyran Alliance]] in what was termed [[Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], Marshall [[Jeremy Brett]] took command of the local [[FWLM]] and launched a counteroffensive, under the name [[Operation BROKEN FIST]]. BROKEN FIST went beyond simply attempting to recapture worlds that the Lyrans had seized, striking into Lyran space at numerous worlds. Wyatt was one of the worlds hit and was captured by the League on 1 September [[3068]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>
=== First Succession War ===
 
Wyatt was annexed by the [[Free Worlds League]] early in the [[First Succession War]], but the [[Marik Militia]] forces assigned to Wyatt withdrew in late [[2790]], leaving the planet open to conquest. The League had honored the titles of the [[House Roark|Roark family]] on Wyatt when the world was annexed from the [[Terran Hegemony]], in exchange for the Roark's fealty. That fealty was tested when two [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] [[regiment]]s - the [[Fourth Donegal Guards]] and [[Fifth Lyran Guards]] - arrived to annex the planet in January [[2791]]. A Lyran negotiator attempted to persuade [[Baroness]] [[Althea Roark]] to switch her allegiance to the [[Lyran Commonwealth]], the previous Baron - Althea's husband - having left with the [[Star League Defense Force]] on the [[Operation EXODUS|Exodus]], but Althea's son and daughter - former [[Captain]] Stephan Roark of the [[SLDF]] and his sister, Dana - are opposed to breaking their oaths to [[House Marik]], as is Stephan's uncle, retired SLDF [[General]] Bartolomeo Roark.

=== Third Succession War ===
+
As a part of the fighting on Wyatt in 3068 the [[Bowie Industries]] plant was hit by a pair of 50-kiloton cobalt-laced nuclear weapons which devastated the plant and nearby Earhardt City. Multiplying the long-term effects of the nuclear strike against the Bowie plant was a Class Nine storm which spread the fallout across a wide swath of the planet. So much of Wyatt's farmland was contaminated by fallout that the previously self-sufficient world was placed under a Famine Order, with food having to be imported until soil along the equatorial belt could be cleansed of radiation. Estimates at the time indicated that local [[Sauget]] fisheries would take at least twenty years to recover, and that without substantial assistance from the Free Worlds League or the Lyran Alliance, Wyatt would never recover to the point of having a self-sustaining economy again. The possibility that Wyatt would be unable to survive without imports and would become a dead world was considered very real.<ref name="JHS:3072p17">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 17: "Environmental Impact"</ref>
In [[2991]], the [[Free Worlds League]] launched a retaliation raid against [[Steiner]] forces on Wyatt. The purpose of this attack was to capture several ''[[Chippewa]]'' fighters for study. Several [[Dispossessed]] pilots with infantry support were dropped in secret on world.  This team then infiltrated an airfield and flew off with six ''Chippewa'' fighters.  Only four of these fighters eventually made it to Marik space and were later put into service with the Free Worlds League Military.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3025'', p. 162</ref>
 
  
The world was raided in [[3016]] by [[Wolf's Dragoons]] Beta and Delta Regiments. They faced off with the [[Eleventh Lyran Guards]] and [[Seventeenth Arcturan Guards]] regiments.<ref name=wd21/>

Later in the [[Jihad]] the [[Word of Blake]] incorporated Wyatt into their [[Word of Blake Protectorate|Protectorate]]. Wyatt was one of three worlds to be liberated in January [[3078]] by forces from the allied coalition fighting on the Lyran front as a part of [[Operation SCOUR]].<ref name="J:FRp58">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 58: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>
  
=== Fourth Succession War ===
+
====Dark Age====
In October [[3028]] Wyatt was targeted by the [[Free Worlds League Military]] as a part of [[Operation DAGGER]], the offensive planned by [[Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik]] to seize valuable industrial worlds in the [[Federation of Skye]]. Wyatt was a particular target of DAGGER because of the presence of two [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] line regiments, the Eleventh Lyran Guards and Seventeenth Arcturan Guards; while the [[Fifth Regulan Hussars]] and [[Twenty-fifth Marik Militia]] jumped into the Wyatt system intent on destroying both regiments, other [[FWLM]] regiments were capturing the [[Milton]] and [[Phecda]] systems in an effort to isolate the Lyran forces.<ref name="FSWMAv1p62">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 62-63, "Operation DAGGER"</ref>
+
After the Jihad, Wyatt was annexed by the [[Republic of the Sphere]].
  
Unfortunately for the two League regiments, the two Lyran regiments had been forewarned of the attack. The Hussars arrived at a [[pirate point]] allowing them to make an immediate drop on the surface of the planet, while the Militia appeared at the zenith [[jump point]] - only to find the Eleventh Lyran Guards waiting at the jump point, with the 'Mechs embarked on transports and [[aerospace fighter]]s patroling. Before the Militia could launch fighters the Eleventh's aerospace fighters began strafing attacks, with pairs of ''[[Chippewa]]s'' and ''[[Lucifer]]s'' each launching a single attack before withdrawing. The cumulatative damage destroyed two ''[[Union]]s'' and a ''[[Leopard]]''; worse still for the Militia, one of the DropShips was transporting a [[battalion]] command staff, and when it was destroyed, not only were those staff killed, but the [[DropShip]] then exploded, damaging a number of neighbouring DropShips as they seperated from their ''[[Invader]]''-class [[JumpShip]]. With the Militia forces frantically trying to form up, the Eleventh retrieved its fighters and jumped out to the [[Alchiba]] system, while the Arcturan Guards jumped for [[Cor Caroli]].<ref name="FSWMAv1p62"/> Although the plan to destroy the two Lyran regiments was unsuccessful, the League did capture Wyatt.<ref name="FSWMAv1p63">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 63, "Overview"</ref>
+
When the [[Blackout]] struck in [[3132]], Wyatt was somehow erased from thousands of star charts in addition to losing HPG communications with the wider universe. While still not totally isolated this increased Wyatt's status as a backwater, which [[Jacob Bannson]], through his local associate [[Rutger Chaffee]], took advantage of to secretly ship in mercenaries and equipment, and provide him with a potential rabbit hole.<ref name=ToOc7>''Target of Opportunity'', ch. 7</ref>
  
=== The Jihad ===
+
By [[3135]], Wyatt's HPG had been chosen by [[ComStar]] to play host to an attempted restoration. While the first attempt failed, the second, overseen by technical genius [[Tucker Harwell]], proved successful and on 5 May 3135, Wyatt's HPG had transmitted and received data with its counterpart on [[Thorin]].<ref name=ToOc8>''Target of Opportunity'', ch. 8</ref>
Following the invasion of the [[Free Worlds League]] by the Skye and Bolan Provinces of the [[Lyran Alliance]] in what was termed [[Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], Marshall [[Jeremy Brett]] took command of the local [[FWLM]] and launched a counteroffensive, under the name [[Operation BROKEN FIST]]. BROKEN FIST went beyond simply attempting to recapture worlds that the Lyrans had seized, striking into Lyran space at numerous worlds. Wyatt was one of the worlds hit and was captured by the League on the 1st of September [[3068]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45, "The Jihad In Review"</ref>
 
  
As a part of the fighting on Wyatt in 3068 the [[Bowie Industries]] plant was hit by a pair of 50-kiloton cobalt-laced nuclear weapons which devastated the plant and nearby Earhardt City. Multiplying the long-term effects of the nuclear strike against the Bowie plant was a Class Nine storm which proceeded to distribute the fallout across a wide swathe of the planet. So much of Wyatt's farmland was contaminated by fallout that the previously self-sufficient world was placed under a Famine Order, with food having to be imported until soil along the equatorial belt could be cleansed of radiation. Estimates at the time indicated that local fisheries would take at least twenty years to recover, and that without substantial assistance from the Free Worlds League or the Lyran Alliance, Wyatt would never recover to the point of having a self-sustaining economy again. The possibility that Wyatt would be unable to survive without imports and would become a dead world was considered very real.<ref name="JHS:3072p17">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 17, "Environmental Impact"</ref>
+
As many had anticipated, Harwell's success attracted the attention of other interested parties and Wyatt saw fighting between several factions throughout May that year, all intent on securing both the now-valuable planet and/or Harwell himself. These included the Republic's Wyatt militia, the [[Eagle's Talons]] from the [[Oriente Protectorate]], [[Chaffee's Cut-Throats]], a mercenary force affiliated with [[Bannson's Raiders]], and the Purifier Pouncers [[Trinary]] from the [[Spirit Cats]]. On May 22, a [[1st Division (ComStar)|new and mysterious force]] entered the fray, abducting Harwell and then vanishing.<ref>''Era Report: 3145'', p. 18: "Timeline of Events: 3135-3145"</ref><ref name=ToOc27>''Target of Opportunity'', ch. 27</ref>
  
Later in the [[Jihad]] the [[Word of Blake]] incorporated Wyatt into their [[Word of Blake Protectorate|Protectorate]]. Wyatt was one of three worlds to be liberated in January [[3078]] by forces from the allied coalition fighting on the Lyran front as a part of [[Operation SCOUR]].<ref name="J:FRp58">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 58, "The Jihad in Review"</ref>
+
Shortly after, when [[Exarch]] [[Jonah Levin]] enacted the [[Fortress Republic]] plan, Wyatt was effectively left as an independent world.<ref name="ER:3145p10"/> By [[3145]], it had been incorporated into the [[Wolf Empire]].<ref name="ER:3145p39"/>

System Information

The Wyatt system is the location of at least one habitable world or construct and as of 3152 was located in the Wolf Empire.[1]

System Description[edit]

Wyatt is located near the Callison and Dubhe systems. The system lies three jumps Anti-spinward from Terra.[2][3]

System History[edit]

The Wyatt system was settled at some point during or before the first half of the twenty-fourth century.[4] By the end of the Reunification War, Wyatt was a member of the Tyrfing Province of the Terran Hegemony.[5]

Political Affiliation[edit]

Planetary History[edit]

Star League era[edit]

After the Amaris Coup, the system was the site of a space battle. There, Rim Republic warships managed to intercept and destroy the SLDF warship TAS Dreadnought.[44]

First Succession War[edit]

Wyatt was annexed by the Free Worlds League early in the First Succession War, but the Marik Militia forces assigned to Wyatt withdrew in late 2790, leaving the planet open to conquest. The League had honored the titles of the Roark family on Wyatt when the world was annexed from the Terran Hegemony, in exchange for the Roark's fealty. That fealty was tested when two Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces regiments—the Fourth Donegal Guards and Fifth Lyran Guards—arrived to annex the planet in January 2791. A Lyran negotiator attempted to persuade Baroness Althea Roark to switch her allegiance to the Lyran Commonwealth, the previous Baron—Althea's husband—having left with the Star League Defense Force on the Exodus. But Althea's son and daughter, former Captain Stephan Roark of the SLDF and his sister Dana, were opposed to breaking their oaths to House Marik, as was Stephan's uncle, retired SLDF General Bartolomeo Roark. The defending forces on Wyatt consisted of the Wyatt Militia—a force that can muster barely four lances of 'Mechs—and the personal 'Mechs of House Roark, which were dispersed around the various Roark landholdings across the world. Stephan and his allies fought against the annexation, but were undercut by the Baroness, who aligned House Roark with the Commonwealth to preserve the family's position on Wyatt.[15]

Third Succession War[edit]

In July 2868, the Free Worlds League once again attacked Wyatt. Elements of the 12th Marik Militia clashed with the [[6th Lyran Regulars] within the Napier County area. The two units became mired down into a giant melee that would force both units to be disbanded after reinforcements for both sides arrived on world.[45]

In 2991, the Free Worlds League launched a retaliation raid against the Commonwealth forces on Wyatt. The purpose of this attack was to capture several Chippewa fighters for study. Several Dispossessed pilots with infantry support were dropped in secret on world. This team then infiltrated an airfield and flew off with six Chippewa fighters. Only four of these fighters eventually made it to Marik space and were later put into service with the Free Worlds League Military.[46]

Captain-General Janos Marik sent the Beta Regiment and Gamma Regiments of Wolf's Dragoons to raid Wyatt in 3016. The opening attacks from the Dragoons targeted and destroyed a key command and control center that the Lyran's had thought was in a secret location. In the initial confusion from the attack, the Dragoons hit several targets and then faded away into the rugged terrain that made up the desert world. However, the defending Eleventh Lyran Guards and Seventeenth Arcturan Guards recovered quickly and flooded likely hiding spaces with reconnaissance drones, scout lances and heavy air cover. For the Dragoons, what began as a raid became a deadly game of hide and seek in the ravines and valleys of Wyatt.

During the fighting on the ground, the Dragoons' DropShips were stationed in-system ready to evacuate if necessary. When the Lyrans finally found the Dragoons, the commanders of both regiments sent the order for the six Overlord Dropships to come pick them up. Lyran fighters immediately launched an assault against the incoming DropShips. During the fighting, the Utah Beach and Sendalor were heavily damaged, but were able to land with the others in the Libre Valley to pick up the ground forces. As the six ships lifted off, the Lyrans redoubled their efforts and the Sendalor was sent tumbling to the ground, taking a battalion of Wolf's Dragoons with it.[21]

In recognition for these losses, Janos Marik sent Jaime Wolf a gold and firestone right engraved with "In memory of Sendalor".[47]

Fourth Succession War[edit]

In October 3028, Wyatt was targeted by the Free Worlds League Military as a part of Operation DAGGER, the offensive planned by Captain-General Janos Marik to seize valuable industrial worlds in the Federation of Skye. Wyatt was a particular target of DAGGER because of the presence of two Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces line regiments, the Eleventh Lyran Guards and Seventeenth Arcturan Guards; while the Fifth Regulan Hussars and Twenty-fifth Marik Militia jumped into the Wyatt system intent on destroying both regiments, other FWLM regiments were capturing the Milton and Phecda systems in an effort to isolate the Lyran forces.[23]

Unfortunately for the two League regiments, the two Lyran regiments had been forewarned of the attack. The Hussars arrived at a pirate point allowing them to make an immediate drop on the surface of the planet, while the Militia appeared at the zenith jump point—only to find the Eleventh Lyran Guards waiting at the jump point, with the 'Mechs embarked on transports and aerospace fighters patrolling. Before the Militia could launch fighters the Eleventh's aerospace fighters began strafing attacks, with pairs of Chippewas and Lucifers each launching a single attack before withdrawing. The cumulative damage destroyed two Unions and a Leopard; worse still for the Militia, one of the DropShips was transporting a battalion command staff, and when it was destroyed, not only were those staff killed, but the DropShip then exploded, damaging a number of neighboring DropShips as they separated from their Invader-class JumpShip. With the Militia forces frantically trying to form up, the Eleventh retrieved its fighters and jumped out to the Alchiba system, while the Arcturan Guards jumped for Cor Caroli.[23] Although the plan to destroy the two Lyran regiments was unsuccessful, the League did capture Wyatt.[24]

The Jihad[edit]

A full eclipse with the planet's moon made for a full blackout that generated chaos on the planet.[42]

Following the invasion of the Free Worlds League by the Skye and Bolan Provinces of the Lyran Alliance in what was termed Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN, Marshall Jeremy Brett took command of the local FWLM and launched a counteroffensive, under the name Operation BROKEN FIST. BROKEN FIST went beyond simply attempting to recapture worlds that the Lyrans had seized, striking into Lyran space at numerous worlds. Wyatt was one of the worlds hit and was captured by the League on 1 September 3068.[35]

As a part of the fighting on Wyatt in 3068 the Bowie Industries plant was hit by a pair of 50-kiloton cobalt-laced nuclear weapons which devastated the plant and nearby Earhardt City. Multiplying the long-term effects of the nuclear strike against the Bowie plant was a Class Nine storm which spread the fallout across a wide swath of the planet. So much of Wyatt's farmland was contaminated by fallout that the previously self-sufficient world was placed under a Famine Order, with food having to be imported until soil along the equatorial belt could be cleansed of radiation. Estimates at the time indicated that local Sauget fisheries would take at least twenty years to recover, and that without substantial assistance from the Free Worlds League or the Lyran Alliance, Wyatt would never recover to the point of having a self-sustaining economy again. The possibility that Wyatt would be unable to survive without imports and would become a dead world was considered very real.[48]

Later in the Jihad the Word of Blake incorporated Wyatt into their Protectorate. Wyatt was one of three worlds to be liberated in January 3078 by forces from the allied coalition fighting on the Lyran front as a part of Operation SCOUR.[49]

Dark Age[edit]

After the Jihad, Wyatt was annexed by the Republic of the Sphere.

When the Blackout struck in 3132, Wyatt was somehow erased from thousands of star charts in addition to losing HPG communications with the wider universe. While still not totally isolated this increased Wyatt's status as a backwater, which Jacob Bannson, through his local associate Rutger Chaffee, took advantage of to secretly ship in mercenaries and equipment, and provide him with a potential rabbit hole.[50]

By 3135, Wyatt's HPG had been chosen by ComStar to play host to an attempted restoration. While the first attempt failed, the second, overseen by technical genius Tucker Harwell, proved successful and on 5 May 3135, Wyatt's HPG had transmitted and received data with its counterpart on Thorin.[51]

As many had anticipated, Harwell's success attracted the attention of other interested parties and Wyatt saw fighting between several factions throughout May that year, all intent on securing both the now-valuable planet and/or Harwell himself. These included the Republic's Wyatt militia, the Eagle's Talons from the Oriente Protectorate, Chaffee's Cut-Throats, a mercenary force affiliated with Bannson's Raiders, and the Purifier Pouncers Trinary from the Spirit Cats. On May 22, a new and mysterious force entered the fray, abducting Harwell and then vanishing.[52][53]

Shortly after, when Exarch Jonah Levin enacted the Fortress Republic plan, Wyatt was effectively left as an independent world.[40] By 3145, it had been incorporated into the Wolf Empire.[2]
