Nephew of [[Ingrid Liao]], Tormax inherited a host of problems when he came to power in [[2980]]. Noticing his traditional military forces were lagging behind in newly formed [[Warrior House]] regiments, especially after the resounding defeat on the world of [[Rio]] by [[House Davion|Davion]] forces, Tormax promptly reorganized the training and recruitment programs of the [[CCAF]].  At his urging, he also pushed his nation's surviving Aerospace industries to design and manufacture new fighters.

In [[2987]], Davion forces commenced a series of attacks against Liao's prefecture capital of [[Tikonov]]. These attacks pressured Tormax into using the last of his military reserves to fend off the incursion.  He also shrewdly dispatched [[Justinia's Cuirassiers]], [[Shepard's Mounted Fusiliers]], and [[Hampton's Hessens]] on a bold invasion of the Davion world of [[Lee]] in order to relieve pressure from the [[Chesterton Reserves]] which were desperately holding off Davion forces on Tikonov. The counterstrike against the reinforced Davion world relieved the beleaguered Liao forces and won the newly deployed [[Transgressor]] aerospace fighters some prestige.<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 50: "Finally, A Turnaround".</ref>
