First Sector War

## Basic Info

The TSR fleet had returned to full strength, as Kal Nedis: Kalhein Kalhein declared a full "Sector war" against nearly every major power in the nine sectors region. The Kaiser quickly struck an alliance with the local Solarian powers, the Krovans, Vyrians, Tiaxalacan and the Vramese and prepared his forces for war once again.
In 12176 The TSR fleet arrived over the UTSE colony of Sorros and destroyed the UTSE fleet with ease.the Kaiser was able to reduce the severity of military casualties at the cost of abandoning millions of civilians in the colonies. This policy of abandonment sowed discontent and extreme criticism against Matt Tygore for the next few decades, still it did allow the battered UTSE fleet to fight on. The UTSE would be given a much needed reprieve as the allied forces in the Tyyrian Sector began making gains on the TSR, the unlikely alliance of the Carsannian Imperial Remnant, the TEC, Boreluzian Federation, Hylogan Directorate and the Centerpoint Chapter managed to push back the TSR after the battle of Nodacon, this reprieve would allow Matt Tygore to mobilize his fleet for a daring and potentially deadly raid on the Natogytt homeworld of Shrine.

### First Sector War The Nelson Raid

Matt Tygore knew that the Terrans could never win a war of attrition with the TSR so instead he speculated that striking fear in the ranks of the TSR's civilian base would be the only way to beat them combining this with the other allies holding the line. UTSE war hero from the Red Rebellion an Admiral: Ricardo Nelson was the man that proposed the raid on Shrine, Matt Tygore initially hesitant agreed on September 1st 12177. Admiral Nelson was placed in command of the Sky Tiger IV and was given a small fleet of a dozen ships and 48 fighters to commit to the raid.
The Next week, the fleet warped straight to a relatively undefended Shrine and dropped 96 frost cores on the surface while including 4 that would detonate be set to detonate within the week. part of the fleet attacked the Shrine Station Orbital, the TSR's main refueling and re-supply station. The TSR was caught entirely off guard and due to the Psionic link of the greater Kalreini any attempts to keep the raid a secret for morale purposes would fail and the battle lines in the Tyyrian sector would further fall to the Allied forces.
The frost cores set a week prior would detonate and kill 178 members of the TSR central government and would destroy the western corridor of Tygotan City, killing 7 million civilians and 97,000 TSR military forces.
Kalhein Kalhein state of mind would be in chaos and his sanity would begin to faultier, his childhood home of the Shrine Station Orbital was destroyed and his power was undermined. Kalhein ordered a massive fleet to be ready to invade the planet Earth in retaliation ignoring his advisers and causing a slow to start but long civil war known as the Teinkan Conflict. The fleet was ready and set off for Earth in late 12177.

### First Sector War Earth Blitz, the Second Trap

On December 7, 12177 the TSR fleet arrived over the planet Earth coming to a similar situation as the UTSE had with Shrine, as the fleet prepared for battle and destroyed numerous UTSE satelites and space stations, however this was a trap, at 9:11 AM 63 frost cores would detonate and destroy hundreds of TSR ships. The TSR Kommandant: Zhorgyn Feil would panic and order his fleet to withdraw, as this was happening the real UTSE fleet de-cloaked and cut them off before they could begin their warp rift. the resulting battle was a one-sided massacre with a dozen TSR ships outright surrendering to the UTSE. (these ships would later be repainted an would permenantly join the UTSE as an ally, they would be the first Natogytt forces to fight under the UTSE banner) The UTSE once again shocked the galaxy and dealt a severe blow to the TSR and while the war would still go on, the UTSE was now in the position to rebuild and recapture their lost colonies.

### The McMurdo Project

In 12181 Matt Tygore commissioned his scientists to begin work on a new series of projects the most important of which was the McMurdo Project it was began in two parts a cover project to develop a new space superiority fighter and the core project, a fully realized Eternal Winter super weapon.
The project's core idea was based on the widely known fake super-weapon and with the cover story in play the project would remain a secret until completion.
By 12187 The Kaiser's fleet and military forces had grown and was able to support other allied forces to tighten the grip on the TSR and put them on the defensive. Matt Tygore sent 5 fleets to assist his Viserak allies in the Josminian Empire. The fleet would face near constant TSR assaults, specifically at the battle of Acai where Josminian and Terran forces overran the TSR fleet and ground forces on that planet. The battle of Acai would feed into the Viserak's speciesist superiority complex over the Natogytts who they had been defeating for three years. The Kaiser would be wary of this and would slowly pull his forces from that region back to the Solarian sector.

### First Sector War The Frontier Clash

As more and more years pass the TSR's battle lines fell apart in the Tyyrian sector. The Kaiser accurately predicted the TSR's response to this defeat, the Kaiser fortified his fleet at planet Frontier. and awaited the TSR forces who would likely try to build morale by defeating the Terrans, and just as predicted the TSR Kanderarch squadron fleet arrived and was immediately fired upon by the UTSE frontier armada. after a colossal battle of hundreds of large ships and thousands of fighters, the TSR fleet was defeated and forced to retreat. This battle was a major turning point in the war, never again would the TSR threaten UTSE territory in the solarian sector, and the UTSE would begin their major offensive into the Sapphirian sector, their target was a major supply base of the TSR an ice world known as Socrova or it's later name "Antarctos".

### First Sector War Battle of Antarctos

The UTSE armada would finally assault planet Antarctos in January of 12199 following the secret completion of the McMurdo Project. The first invasion was a total failure for the UTSE with 70% of the forces sent being eliminated by the TSR with only nominal gains. the second invasion was more successful by creating a foothold on the planet, but reinforcements and extra supplies were required to push the battle lines. Matt Tygore himself would oversee the battle of X1-28 Region and would lead the victorious UTSE forces to capture 75,000 TSR soldiers within a single week. The entire takeover of planet Antarctos would take six more months to complete but the UTSE would defeat the TSR forces and their reinforcements. With the success of this battle in hand, Matt Tygore renamed his nation, the "United Terran Systems from Earth to Antarctos". While minor changes in governance were made, the renaming was seen as a new era for mankind and would lead to a new balance of power in space.

### First Sector War Siege of Tygotan (Shrine)

After eight more years of fierce fighting the allied forces would finally assault the TSR core worlds, raids on the capitol of Shrine were becoming more and more common, but the TSR would not surrender, eventually the UTSEA and it's allies would engage in a full scale invasion of Shrine. still the TSR would not surrender even as UTSEA troops captured major cities including Horat and Saphron the TSR forces would fight for several more weeks. The Kaiser wanted to demonstrate to the galaxy that he and his species were the next rising power in space, finally under the authority of the Kaiser the UTSEA's 9th and 27th fleets departed from the hidden base at planet Roma and warped to Shrine.
On October 15, 12108 Kaiser: Matt Tygore ordered the Eternal Winter II to fire upon the rebuilt Shrine Station Orbital, the resulting attack flash froze every inch of the space station and instantly killed every one of it's 650,000 residents and crew. The nine sector's region was caught off guard by the attack, the Kaiser and the galaxy knew a new arms race was about to begin, still the TSR was unable to fight back against such weaponry because of this Kal Nedis: Gal Shaigo contacted the UTSEA, TEC and their respective allies and offered a surrender.

### Conclusion: The Treaty of Shirian-Opol City

The UTSEA, TEC and TSR all went to the negotiating table, however the TSR's negotating power was null and the UTSEA and TEC negotiated with each other directly to determine their territorial gains. by the end of 12108 the UTSEA dissolved the Third Shrine Republic and created the Shrine Provisional Authority and took over roughly 200 worlds formerly owned by the TSR while the rest of the allies took an assortment of 332 worlds, the TEC and Centerpoint factions gained most of the "northern" Sapphirian systems. While numerous uprisings would occur by Shirian militants the saga of Natogytt dominance of space was at an end. The UTSEA was now a great power, the Kaiser's reign would tighten but this would cause rebellion and discontent among the populace.

### Aftermath:

This war made the UTSEA the strongest power in Delta Space, similar to their predesssor the United States of America after world war II, due to the near entirety of the region losing many of their fleets and much of their infrastructure in this conflict.
