Martine Gate War Games

Martine Gate War Games was a military exercise conducted by the 1st Devastation Squadron under the command of Kilo-Commander Atosuryua.

History
In ICY 956 or ICY 957, the Empire has retaken the Territory of Count Hyde during Operation Light Snow. However, the inhabitants of Martine resisted returning to the Empire.

At the same time the Empire introduced a new type of warships in the form of the attack ships of the Caubh-Class. The 1st Devastation Squadron was created with these new ships under Kilo-Commander Atosuryua. Atosuryua was to conduct an exercise within the Hyde system to evaluate the abilities of these new ships. This was meant to intimidate the Martinese and convince them of their futility. The 1st Devastation Squadron started the evaluation with a race. For this the squadron was divided into two groups. Each group would race through oe side of the 12th sord ring. The first group to arrive would act as the defending force. The losing group would act as the attacking force.

During the mock battle over Martine, the Martinese opened fire with Big Charlie, hitting the Ryumcaubh. The Ryumcaubh returned fire and destroyed the Big Charlie.

Aftermath of the excercise
Till Clint and Count Hyde negotiated an agreement which would return Martin to the Empire.
