Osiris Colony



Osiris is located in the 70 Ophiuchi System. Prior to the First Battle of Osiris, Osiris was represented in the Confederation Senate by Senator Andrews. Ironically just weeks before the initial attack on Osiris, Admiral Carruthers made it clear that Osiris was concerned that they were next on the Sh'daar hit list.

First Battle of Osiris
Osiris was overrun by Sh'daar vassal races in January of 2405 during a battle that may have lasted anywhere from 3 to 16 days, it is not known or not mentioned how long the colony was able to hold out however it should be mentioned that the colony was under attacked by TWO Sh'daar races (the Turusch and the Nungiirtok). This fact as well as the fact that by day 3 of the battle when the planet was said to no longer be a 'garden world' may imply that the battle did not last for more that a week on the ground.

Second Battle of Osiris
On November 16, 2424 CBG-40 (America carrier battle group) decisively defeated the Sh'daar client races in orbit of the planet, and allusions are made to a possible later ground operation to eliminate Sh'daar ground forces and recolonize the planet. The battle was the first time the tactic of using a cargo freighter filled with space debris mostly from the asteroid belt to wipe out and/or weaken the defending fleet to such an extent that the weakened CBG-40 which was down to 16 capital ships and the Carrier America as well as about 6 squadrons, or what was left of them, were able to defeat a superior force of 57 ships made up of Slan and Turusch ships.
