Unit Brief

The Styx Protectorate Militia is one of the many militias raised by Word of Blake to defend the Word of Blake Protectorate. The unit was deployed in Styx. As of 3075 it was the only unit raised from this planet.[1]

History

Forces from the allied coalition assembled by Devlin Stone were attempting to liberate Styx in May 3077 as a part of Operation SCOUR when a Blakist ambushed badly damaged the 1st New Ivaarsen Chasseurs. In response, on the 14th of May the commander of the 19th Arcturan Guards authorized the bombardment of the base complex housing the Styx Protectorate Militia with tactical nuclear weapons. The resulting bombardment collapsed a number of mines in the area and destroyed the entire of the city in which the base complex lay.[2] Casualties from the two tactical nukes detonated as airbursts over the capital city of Styx amounted to at least 15,000 civilians.[3]
