Planetary History
Clan Invasion
Chupadero was conquered by Clan Smoke Jaguar in May 3050 during the Second Wave of Operation Revival. The First Trinary Assault and Aerospace Trinary of the 214th Jaguar Dragoons invaded the planet, which was defended by the 1st Chupadero Armored Legion. The battle started quickly in the Jaguars' favor as their OmniFighters quickly decimated their opponent's antique air support, winning air superiority and First Trinary Assault ample time to hunt down the defenders at their leisure. At Dale Valley they easily stepped over 'Mech traps laid by the defenders and routed the tank regiment even as it attempted a retreat. The Legion's remnants fell back to the Billoc Tunnels, through which they intended to reach the capital Fredsin and make their final stand, but were foiled when Star Captain Wesley Moon decided to enter after them and destroyed their last remaining vehicles.[11]
In spite of the destruction rained upon them elements of the Chupadero Legion survived and went to ground. Rebuilding their forces from the local populace and scrounging any vehicle they could get their hands on, they were able to rebuild and field two armor and one infantry battalions to resist Clan rule. Thus the planet was one of several handed over by Clan Smoke Jaguar to Clan Nova Cat during the Fifth Wave in November 3051. Hoping to win the populace's hearts and minds the Nova Cat Khans reminded Shiva Keshik to tread lightly in defeating the guerrillas so as to create favorable occupation conditions. The Legion did not see the situation the same way however, and fiercely resisted their new occupiers, fighting major battles at Cornerstone and Hill Valley which caused major damage. While successful in the end, the fighting on Chupadero caused the Nova Cats to file a formal complaint with ilKhan Ulric Kerensky regarding the Smoke Jaguars and their occupation methods.[12]
Operation Bulldog
Chupadero was invaded in the first wave of Operation Bulldog by the Forty-Second Galedon Regulars. The defending Nova Cat Fifteenth Garrison Cluster lost the planet, but only after killing the invading unit's CO.[13]
