Baxter Metals was mining company working for the Lyran Commonwealth.[1]
Overview
Breed's Brawlers pirates raided Kolovraty in 3075 and had as target a cache of refined metals produced by the company for off-world shipment stored in a warehouse in Paxton city and defended by a short platoon of city militia tanks and an infantry company. Though the pirates could have beaten the forces in a stand up fight, one of the pirate's tank, a modified Myrmidon moved in search of several hospitals on the city, destroying three of them and killing all the innocents bystanders near them. This made the militia try to defend the hospitals and allowed the rest of the pirates, and the Myrmidon sacked the warehouse's contents and escaped, costing Baxter Metals billions of kroner. The LAAF has set a bounty on Tate's crew of more than two million kroner, and ComStar has matched that in C-bills.[1]
