2439.9-2440.1 A brief Historic report
The Delta Corporation dispatched its private navy and fleet to seize the Anderman world of Horod V and began conducting biological and genetic experiments upon the civilian population in an attempt to better understand the Anderman soldiers who were engineered to survive in almost any planetary environment with only a minimum of life support equipment.
This action was unsanctioned by the Icaran government and has in fact caused the delta corporation to come under investigation, however because of the fact that the financial records of the Delta corporation “security department” was mysteriously destroyed when the archive building burned to the ground the day before Naval investigators were able to arrive.
Having spent nearly all of it’s financial assets on forming the private fleet with which to launch the attack on Horod V the Delta Corporation began selling several patents on the open market creating havoc in the Medical and Chemical markets of the Empire.

The 5th fleet under Admiral White invaded Glakka I and suffered heavy casualties as seven Super Dreadnoughts were destroyed with another being crippled with the majority of it’s crew dead, the invasion cost the Empire 41,820 of it’s young men and women, however the planet was seized and valuable resources were brought into the Empire, the seven destroyed ships names have been added to the Wall of the Fallen to honor their heroism in service of the Empire.

On a much more important note to modern historians the Celestian republic was absorbed into the Empire on Tellus 3rd 2440 bringing in several systems and worlds into the folds of the Icaran Empire.

What no one could have suspected was that the Mantisoran government though claiming alliance to the Anderman and flying under the Anderman Alliance banner was secretly planting agents throughout the other members of the Anderman Alliance and creating disorder and instability in their governments in order to bring them into the Mantisoran fold.
