PLANETARY DETAILS:
Legend has it that Chara received the name Pacifica from its first explorer, who was fortunate enough to arrive on a placid day. In fact, this water-rich, Terra-like world soon proved to be anything but tranquil to the colonists who came afterward though the name stuck, curiously enough. Thanks to a fast rotation fourteen standard hours, compared to Terra's twenty-four and the lack of a moon to slow it down, the planet's weather systems are in constant turmoil.
Sudden rain - or thunderstorms rage across the temperate coastal regions, while fierce blizzards and punishing downpours of freezing rain frequent the northern and southern latitudes most coming from skies that seemed clear just minutes before. But even as the natives came to describe their weather by paraphrasing the favored line of Terra's New England region if you don't like the weather here, just wait a minute and it'll change the planet soon became an agricultural paradise.
Starpad, an agro-commune established soon after the first settlers arrived here, is the largest agriplex on the planet, situated just 150 kilometers south of the planetary capital city of Farhaven on the northern Azula continent. During the Succession Wars, in fact, the output of this single, ninety-kilometer-diameter patch of farmland was so great that its exports to agriculturally poorer neighbors prompted the need for a full battalion of permanent garrison troops. Many raids by House Kurita were launched against this planet, despite the impressive garrison. Perhaps the worst of the fighting occurred between Combine forces as the defending mercenary Kell Hounds regiment on the eve of the Fourth Succession War, when the planet was briefly invaded.
In addition to Azula and Verdez, a third continent, Rojia, straddles the planetary equator. Though its location and mountainous coastlines minimize the effects of the planet's worst weather systems, this landmass is the most underpopulated, largely due to the fact that its interior reaches are almost all desert and badlands, thanks to a lack of inland riverways and lakes.

EMPLOYER SITUATION REPORT:
First and foremost the Liberty Holds Premier, Isis Marik, extends her gratitude to the Royal Corvax command staff, or what's left of it of course, in the successful accomplishment of subverting the Lipton Government to side with their former benefactors the Lyran Alliance. The Council feels this bodes well in the simmering hostilities threatening to boil over in the region.
Although we do have empathy for the current state of your units command for the life of us we do not pretend to comprehend why your clan's Khan chose this exact moment to recall your unit's senior most leaders. But none-the-less we were please with the Royal Corvax performance even in the face of a 'lobotomized' command staff. Hence we will not hold your failure to hold the Lipton Spaceport for our equipment extraction team. However, what Liberty Holds will require of the Royal Corvax is to intercept the Diamond Sharks on Chara. A second chance so to speak.
We need your unit to infiltrate the Chara system and over take the elements of the Diamond Sharks you so recently encountered. You know them well, their tactics, their methods, their strengths and more importantly their weaknesses. We need to recapture that equipment. We will refit you as best we can and provide you with ample aerospace fighter cover. This op is all yours to command as you see fit. You will be given full salvage rights. If you can haul it you can keep it. Our units will remain on station for the Royal Corvax safe extraction.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
1) Infiltrate Chara and secure the Space Port
2) Provide defensive fire for our transporting DropShip
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
1) Recover the Military Hardware lost on Lipton
2) N/A
