Planetary History[edit]

Fourth Succession war[edit]

Shaula was captured in the opening wave of Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG, the major Lyran Commonwealth offensive of the Fourth Succession War.[19]

Clan Invasion[edit]

During the fifth wave of Operation REVIVAL, Clan Wolf's Delta Galaxy invaded the planet in December 3051. They were opposed by the survivors of the First Lyran Guards RCT, which had earlier been mauled by Clan Wolf on Maestu. Hauptmann General Jane Craigie was determined to avenge her earlier defeat and incorporated the local militia to replenish her ranks, even resorting to kidnapping when necessary. She determined the likely routes of advance the Wolves would take, set up ambush sites and planted vibrabombs. Unfortunately she had not counted on Delta Galaxy's lighter and swifter 'Mechs; while they advanced along the predicted routes, they moved too fast for most of the planned ambushes to be attempted and were too light to set off the vibrabombs. Two Clusters were successfully ambushed at Kodak Springs by a battalion of Guard 'Mechs and a regiment of heavy armor, but the accuracy and maneuverability of the Wolves ensured their victory during that pitched battle. Other battles took place at Orcim Salt Flats and Rolyat Bridge before the Guards were finally defeated and forced to retreat, fleeing to Orkney.[45]

IlClan Era[edit]

Shortly after Clan Jade Falcon stripped its Occupation Zone of warriors for the assault on Terra, Khan Gottfried Amirault led an attack on Shaula with two purposes in mind: to secure a springboard for further expansion towards Terra and to discern the current state of the Falcon OZ's defenses. Amirault's force easily crushed the solahma Falcon garrison - which consisted of two 'Mechs and a Trinary of vehicles and infantry - and learned from prisoners that the Falcons had indeed left their OZ practically undefended.[46]
