[edit] Events of 2321

March 2 - The Onyx Empire launches a nuclear strike against Theia, violating the Titan Peace Accords. The two long-range missiles are deflected from Titan City itself by the city's gravity shield. One is broken into multiple pieces, disabling it. The other crashes intact into the nearby
March 23 - Agents of the Omegas infiltrate Titan City in an attempt to assassinate members of the United Earth Alliance provisional government. Councilman Gary Hughes is severely wounded, though the Premier, Barbara Dannins, escapes. Six Titan City police officers and three Omegas agents die in the resulting fire-fight.

April 5 - The UEAS Thomas led an attack against a Royal Imperial Air Force defense base in orbit of Themis. Twenty-nine Imperial F-4 Ravens were destroyed in the attack.
April 6 - Omegas agents sabotaged one of the eight reactors that powered Titan City's shields. They planned to bomb each reactor in succession, but Titan City police killed them in a fierce firefight. The planned Imperial invasion of Theia was put off for a while.
April 18 - The Royal Imperial Navy began a systematic seek and destroy mission against all United Earth Alliance forces on Rhea, levelling several key installations before Scott Sanburn's forces drove them off.
April 24 - The HMS Iron Hand launched a heavy long-range bombardment against Titan City, which overwhelmed the shield generators and destroyed several power transfer stations from the ensuing feedback. Titan City suffered a ten hour blackout, and Titan City police had to deal with a riot instigated by Omegas agents.
April 25 - A large squadron of United Earth Alliance Defense Force bombers managed to catch a flight of Royal Imperial Navy frigates off guard and without fighter escort near Themis. The HMS Gorgon was severely damaged, and many crew aboard were killed when three decks decompressed suddenly.

May 4 - Josiah MacArthur Hlow, the brilliant mind behind most Imperial weapons, attempted to defect to the United Earth Alliance provisional government. He was discovered by Imperial forces as he fled with his most loyal assistants. They managed to escape the Imperial blockade of the Titan System, and headed for Theia.

May 16 - For twelve days, Imperial and United Earth Alliance forces fought each other around Hlow's ship. Hlow's corvette took minor damage in the battle. At the height of the fighting, Hlow's ship disappeared entirely. No one knows, even today, what happened or how Hlow escaped.

May 19 - The resources consumed by the Royal Imperial Navy in the battle for custody of Hlow were enormous. All hostilities against the Titan System were suspended until the next year.

July 12 - In the confusion surrounding the attempted defection, the United Earth Alliance Defense Force took the initiative, and attacked the Royal Imperial Navy's forward base orbiting Themis. The attack was a complete success, resulting in devastating losses for the Empire and prompting their retreat from Themis.
