====Trials against Clan Star Adder & Clan Goliath Scorpion in 3068====
In early December 3068, the Delta Naval Star of [[Clan Star Adder]] arrived in-system and initiated a [[Trial of Possession]] against the Snow Ravens for the orbital space above the world of Lum and the valuable industrial assets located there. The ensuing battle between the two forces was one of the largest naval battles in Clan space with multiple Stars of WarShips, DropShips and aerofighters on each side. After the fierce fighting, the Snow Ravens were victorious and the Star Adders withdrew from Lum space.

The [[Clan Goliath Scorpion]] [[Beta Naval Star (Clan Goliath Scorpion)|Beta Naval Star]], led by [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Colin Yeh]], declared a Trial of Possession for the orbiting Lum naval yards. The Goliath Scorpion fleet had been assembled by the Khans under the direction of Star Captain [[Archibald Ben-Shimon]], [[Crimson Seeker Star]] member and naval commander. Plans and schematics collected by the SLDF at the time of [[Operation EXODUS]] were kept in the Lum Shipyards and a tempting target for the [[Clan_Goliath_Scorpion#Seekers|Seekers]].<ref>''Spotlight On: Crimson Seeker Star'', pp. 3-4</ref> In a moment of exasperation at the situation, as his forces were exhausted and damaged from the previous battle, Clan Snow Raven [[Star Admiral]] [[Thomas Waters (31st c.)|Thomas Waters]] declared that all Raven assets in the system would defend in the Trial.

During the fighting, weapons on the Lum shipyard opened fire on the Scorpion vessels. This designated the yard and other facilities as legal combat targets.

The Jade Falcons were not involved in the fighting and the Snow Ravens still controlled the planet itself.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 40: "Lamentations and the Raven": Details of the twin assaults of Lum in 3068</ref>
