History[edit]
Operation CHIEFTAIN[edit]
In 2772, Talitha was the first target for XXIV Corps in the opening drive to retake the Terran Hegemony. The world was home to a Star League exchange and mint, but was also an important regional military center protected by three Castles Brian and two brigades of Amaris forces. Efforts to subjugate the world had only encouraged the formation of a strong resistance, made even more powerful by the presence of so many SLDF retirees. So while the Amaris defenders used WMD liberally against XXIV Corps and civilian targets, resistance groups were able to quickly locate their agents and strongholds which allowed the SLDF to secure Talitha by the end of the year. Much of the world had been battered but retained the industrial capability to support the logistical needs of the military, and by mid-2773, the system was once again serving the SLDF as a regional headquarters and supply depot.[1]
