Planetary History

Clan Invasion

In April 3050 Almunge was attacked by Clan Smoke Jaguar as part of Operation REVIVAL. The Alpha Battle Star of Trinary Battle, First Jaguar Guards, faced off against the Almunge Cadet Infantry Battalion on the rolling green Sculyan Hills. Hopelessly outmatched the cadets nevertheless chose to defend their homeworld and took heavy casualties as they fought over every inch of ground. Star Captain Chrisholm, grudgingly impressed by the cadets' courage, accepted the surrender of their survivors and made them bondsmen.[18]

Operation BULLDOG

Almunge was invaded in the second wave of Operation BULLDOG by the First Aragon Borderers and the First Amphigean Light Assault Group, who met no resistance on the planet.[19]
