I actually have material for this page. Very little, but now, at least, I know what is really going to be here. A three-sided battle for the planet Epsilon Eridoni in the Chaos March. One side, obviously, would be the Capellan Confederation. The other side would be the Federated Commonwealth-supported Eridoni Planetary Government. The third side, I don't know yet. Could it be troops from the Free Worlds League coming to help Liao regain control of lost planets in the March? Or even Word of Blake troops from Terra seeking to crush a planned Comstar assult from Epsilon Eridoni? (and if so, does that mean that there is a Comstar presence on the planet?) Could it be that the Lyran Alliance is seeking to destablize the Davion-friendly world by sendng its own troops to aid the Liao (or even take the world for the House Steiner)? I haven't figured out who the third party would be just yet. Maybe, just maybe, there will be more than three sides to this battle.
Yes, there will be more than three sides! Comstar has a few regiments, a few dropships, and a jumpship. They are planning a stike on Terra and are setting up for it. Word of Blake found out about the Epsilon launch site and decided to attack. The Davion garrison pledged to help protect the Comstar battle group and thus came under the Word's attacks, as well. Liao resistants groups threaten everyone with their seemingly random bombings and raids. And who knows what to faction the most recent Jumpship to arrive insystem after the Word of Blake attack belongs? It answers no hails and has sent nearly a dozen dropships silently towards Epsilon Eridoni. Planetary administrators are frightened of the incoming fleet. Could it be unannounced Comstar reinforcements? Could the Word of Blake's second wave? Is the Capellan Confederation or Lyran Alliance sending a small fleet to take advantage of the Davion's weakend defense? No one knows. Best keep in touch. |
