====Star League====

| 1
During the final years of the [[Star League]], Acrux was the host to a [[Star League Defense Force]] garrison.<ref name=FMSLDFp255>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 255: "SLDF - Lyran Commonwealth Military Command Map"</ref>

====Succession Wars====
+
| [[Lyran Commonwealth | LC]]
Acrux was the target of a two-pronged invasion of the [[Free Worlds League]] by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] in the [[First Succession War]]; [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Thaddeus Marik (29th c.)|Thaddeus Marik]] was concerned enough with the prospect of Acrux being captured—Acrux being an important industrial world at the time—that in [[2811]] he attempted to launch a counterinvasion to block the Lyran campaign. Marik's first target was the world of [[Poulsbo]], which was the location of the crack [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] [[regiment]] known as [[The Stealths]]. Despite their best efforts, the [[Free Worlds League Military]] only managed to destroy Lyran [[aerospace fighter]]s, not any of the [[DropShip]]s or [[JumpShip]]s transporting The Stealths, and the losses suffered in turn were so heavy that the counterstrike had to be called off.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p29">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 29: "Father and Son"</ref>
