During the [[Second Succession War]], Asuncion served as a bastion in the Free Worlds League defense against the Capellan Confederation, even during the dire years of the [[ComStar War]]; however, in the summer of [[2840]] the Capellans finally conquered Asuncion as the [[Free Worlds League Military]] desperately tried to mount a defense of the key industrial world of [[Irian]] in the face of Lyran and Capellan offensives that had begun during the interdiction and were continuing relentlessly afterwards.

In [[3070]], the [[Sixth Orloff Grenadiers]] had fallen back from an attack into [[Lyran Alliance]] space to station Asuncion when they found themselves under attack by the mercenary unit [[Barrett's Fusiliers]]. The Fusiliers had been stationed on the nearby world of [[Zion]] when the other major unit on the planet, the [[Third Free Worlds Guards]] lifted off Zion without orders to launch an attack into Capellan space. As the League dissolved into chaos, the Fusiliers were told by the planetary government on Zion that as a temporary measure, the Zion government would be assuming control of their contract, and ordered the Fusiliers to secure Asuncion and put down a rebellion on that planet.<ref name="MSUp29">''Mercenaries Supplemental Update'', p. 29: "Barrett's Fusiliers"</ref>

The Fusiliers were surprised by the presence of the Sixth on Asuncion, announced when the Sixth's air wing intercepted the Fusiliers soon after their arrival at a local pirate point. The Fusiliers air forces punched through the Sixth's fighter screen, and the mercenaries landed and deployed around the Plains of Schakondra, southwest of the planetary capital and north of the Forest of Kendra. This strength of this cautious approach was buoyed by the Fusiliers deploying a 'Mech battalion and significant artillery assets within the Forest. Colonel Loge soon met the Fusiliers in a fierce combat action, despite coming under a significant artillery barrage from the mercenaries hidden artillery assets, followed by bombardment from heavy bombers when Loge ordered the Sixth to charge through the artillery barrage to engage the Fusiliers.<ref name="MSUp29"/>
