====Clan Invasion====
 
Vantaa was conquered by [[Clan Wolf]] during [[Operation REVIVAL]] as part of their Third Wave of attacks in July [[3050]], with major battles taking place at Odrade's Lament, Teg Acres, Spider's Climb and Duncan's Rift.  The planet was defended by the surviving two-thirds of the [[Tenth Donegal Guards]], which had earlier faced the Wolves at [[Chateau]], along with Alpha and Bravo [[battalion]]s of the Third Regiment, [[Twelfth Star Guards]]. [[Marshal (rank)|Marshal]] [[Sarah Steiner (31st c.)|Sarah Steiner]], upon receiving the ''[[batchall]]'' of [[Star Colonel]] [[Carmin Winson]], truthfully stated her forces' strength and request that the desert of Shaitan Valley serve as the designated battleground.  The Star Colonel Agreed and deployed the [[7th Battle (Clan Wolf)|Seventh Battle Cluster]]. The two sides met and engaged each other according to the proscriptions of ''[[zellbrigen]]'', with combat consisting of honorable duels between individual warriors. When half of her units had been destroyed Marshal Steiner requested that the remainder be allowed to withdraw and, much to her surprise, Star Colonel Carmin Winson granted her ''[[hegira]]''.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 60</ref>
