The Stompers participated on a [[Capellan Confederation|Capellan]]-sponsored raid of [[Sonnia]] in 3136. The ''SM2''s proved invaluable as they conducted a slow-paced move-and-fire operation around the main starport. The constant barrage kept the inexperienced [[AFFS|Davion militia]] from intercepting the [[Seventh Capellan Chargers]] as they destroyed a large stockpile of munitions and equipment believed designated for [[Tikonov]], though it was later discovered the warehouses destroyed were filled with medicines and foodstuffs earmarked for [[Basalt]].

History

The Dark Age

Anton's Stompers is a mercenary unit whose origins are unknown that during the Dark Age was operating out of Fletcher. The unit had added a company of SM2s to his artillery battalion, giving them a fast-reaction force to support his older generation Long Tom batteries.

The Stompers participated on a Capellan-sponsored raid of Sonnia in 3136. The SM2s proved invaluable as they conducted a slow-paced move-and-fire operation around the main starport. The constant barrage kept the inexperienced Davion militia from intercepting the Seventh Capellan Chargers as they destroyed a large stockpile of munitions and equipment believed designated for Tikonov, though it was later discovered the warehouses destroyed were filled with medicines and foodstuffs earmarked for Basalt.
