The [[68th Striker (Clan Ghost Bear)|68th Striker Cluster]] was tasked with conquering the planet, then defended by the Honor Guard, a garrison force of five [[BattleMech]] [[Company|companies]] and two [[regiment]]s of [[Combat Vehicle|armor]]. With major confrontations taking place at Cedar Groves and Harmond Hills, the defenders used every trick in the book to defeat the Clan invaders in this savage battle, including poisoning the general water supply on the assumption the Ghost Bears did not have their own reserves. [[Star Colonel]] [[Chou Vong]] labeled the Honor Guard ''[[dezgra]]'' after this incident and used it as an excuse to call down his entire Cluster to finish the battle quickly. However the Honor Guard's use of guerrilla tactics denied this swift victory as both sides resorted to ambushes and other devious tactics. The Honor Guard's elite armor regiments were finally hunted down over the course of five days of attrition fighting.<ref>''Invading Clans'', p. 31</ref> ====The Jihad==== In March [[3076]] Constance was the second of four Ghost Bear Dominion worlds to be raided by [[Clan Ice Hellion]] stragglers after the failed Ice Hellion invasion of the [[Clan Jade Falcon]] Occupation Zone several years before.<ref name="JHS:Tp21">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 21, "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp55">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 55, "The Jihad In Review"</ref> ====Dark Age==== Constance was the site of the Vacaville Slaughter in November [[3120]] when a group of rebels seized the capital and a [[Trinary]] from the [[56th Provisional Garrison Cluster (Clan Ghost Bear)|56th PGC]] was dispatched to crush the revolt. This was accomplished when a [[Vulture Mk III|Vulture]] [[Nova (Formation)|Nova]], pursuing the rebels into the Vacaville subdivision, finally resorted to bombarding the entire town. The majority of the civilian population was killed; only afterwards were the rebels found to have committed mass suicide beforehand.<ref name="TR;3150p160">''Technical Readout: 3150'', p. 160, "Vulture III"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information = Planet Name = {{InfoBoxPlanetStandard | image = | caption = | name = | position = | distance = | moons = | day = | gravity = | pressure = | temperature = | water = | life = | date = | ruler = | capital = | population = | USIIR = | hpg = }} Opening Statement: "Planet1 is the [orbital number] planet in the SystemName system [and is the regional capital of the FactionName6's Region5 district].
