	On August 28, 3028 two powerful interstellar houses were on the verge of uniting.  For the marriage between the Davion and Steiner houses a sequence of events was planned to coincide.  It was called "Operation Rat" and succeeded in the surprise invasion of over 9 Capellan Confederation worlds.  The house of Kurita however, through its' vast network of spies, discovered this plan far in advance.  To take advantage of this knowledge, Kurita planned its' own offensive into Steiner space.  The primary target was the icy borderworld of Carse.  Key military officials (formost of which was Michael Cassidy) were bribed ahead of the invasion.  Kurita troops invaded along with Tooth of Yamir mercenary units and succeeded in taking all but one key location on the planet.  Presently Steiner troops are holding out in the ancient fortress at Anapalia which has a secret cache of Starleague era knowledge.  The Roughrider mercenary company has landed in support of Steiner troops and fought a desperate battle to secure a Kurita stronghold.  Let the battle for Carse commence in earnest!
