Overview[edit]

In early 3112 Wave Two of Operation DIVINE RIGHT launched, sending the 5th Confederation Reserve Cavalry against Hunan and the Republic Standing Guard garrisoning the world. Rookie Ruddy Stautzenberger gained some notoriety in this engagement, protecting his fallen commander with his Koshi BattleMech until his Streak SRM ammunition ran dry before reinforcements could arrive. Following the Fifth's successful conquest of the world, they departed for Styk.[1][2]

Capellan control of the world was short-lived however, as the IV Triarii Protectors brought the world back under the Republic banner in April of that year.[2]
