Planetary History
Clan Invasion
In March of 3052, Clan Smoke Jaguar attacked Port Arthur during the Fifth Wave of Operation Revival. The strategic value of the resource-rich planet meant saKhan Sarah Weaver personally led the attack, involving the Shroud Keshik and 7th Jaguar Dragoons. They immediately engaged the 1st Proserpina Hussars at Zuave Vale, forcing them to fall back to secondary positions at Disher. Here the Smoke Jaguar attack bogged down, forcing saKhan Weaver to order a "headhunter" Star to locate and destroy the First Hussars' command company. While they succeeded in wiping out half the unit they failed to kill Tai-sa Jeong Moon Lee who narrowly escaped. Regardless this attack caused the defenders to retreat again, with the Jaguars again pursuing them. However at Point aux Trembles the Hussars managed to draw the Smoke Jaguars into range of concealed remote-firing weapons protected in hardened positions. The Jaguars had to spend nearly a week rooting out these hidden defenses while the Hussars launched sporadic raids on Clan supply depots. The use of such "dishonorable" tactics only served to infuriate the Jaguars even more; they mercilessly hunted down the rest of the regiment until the survivors were eventually were forced to abandon the world.[28]
Operation Bulldog
Port Arthur was invaded in the first wave of Operation Bulldog by the First Davion Guards, the Seventeenth Benjamin Regulars, the Second Legion of Vega, and the Fifth Sword of Light. The defending 168th Garrison Cluster of Clan Smoke Jaguar fought fiercely against the invading taskforce, who had to call in reinforcements; the Inner Sphere forces eventually captured the planet.[29]
