Planetary History[edit]
The Succession Wars[edit]
In 3044 Althea's Choice was raided by pirates from the Tortuga Dominions who had escaped the slaughter of Paula Trevaline's forces by AFFC troops. Among the defending forces opposing the pirates were a battalion of local infantry, who had been cut off during the initial landings while only equipped with training gear. Using their Pit Bull trucks, the logistics section of the main infantry garrison was able to travel cross-country to the isolated battalion with conventional weaponry, allowing the infantry to resist the pirate attack, as well as providing transport for the infantry as they returned to the main unit base after the pirate forces retreated.[41]
The Jihad[edit]
On the 12th of June 3072 the Taurian Concordat defense forces on Althea's Choice were attacked by troops sporting AFFS colors.[42][43]
