Prologue[edit]

ABY 32 (02 26 2023)

With the success of the scouting mission the area of space the Ishtari originate from has been located. We still know so little about them other than they are insectoid and that they seek resources, but we do know that they are a danger to the order, stability and people of this region so something needs to be done. Plans were quickly drawn up to take the fight to them.

Campaign Background[edit]

With the success of the scouting mission conducted at the end of 31 ABY, the area of space the Ishtari originate from was located. Despite knowing so little about them (other than they are insectoid and that they seek resources), previous engagements with the aggressive species led Emperor's Hammer leaders to identify that they were a danger to the order, stability and people of the region and something needed to be done. Plans were quickly drawn up to take the fight to them with the intent of neutralizing the threat for good.

Outcome[edit]

In 32 ABY, Emperor's Hammer forces arrived at the Assurian Halo to free the planets from the Ishtari insectoids' control and hopefully neutralize them for good. After a month long campaign full of small battles that slowly chipped away at both the Emperor's Hammer and Ishtari forces, the Emperor's Hammer was able to push into the core planets of the system. Vicious fighting lasted until the last day, where the TIE Corps eventually proved triumphant.

Awards[edit]

Combatants of the conflict received the Assurian Halo campaign medal.
