Al Na'ir was not easily cowed. During the [[Jihad]], the Word of Blake sent large numbers of [[aerospace fighter]]-carrying [[DropShip]]s and [[Pocket WarShip]]s to the system. These Blakist units scoured the asteroid belts, destroying the [[Yori 'Mech Works]] assembly lines and inflicting severe losses on the population by destroying their domed cities.<ref name=DARW26>''Dark Age: Republic Worlds (3130)'', p. 26: "Al Na'ir"</ref> By mid-March [[3069]], Al Na'ir had been conquered by the Blakists and incorporated into the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>
