Venice is a star system of the Vega Sector deep into the Empire of Kilrah space, where it is known as Kharak Tar in the Kilrathi language.[1]
Background[]
It has a habitable planet which is a water world (much like Hurricane), which was once inhabited but now only ancient ruins remain sinking into the ocean. As the Kilrathi don't like water, their base is an orbital station, a Kilrathi Star Post serving as the headquarters of the Kilrathi High Command.[1] During the Vega Campaign, the Confederate Sector Command realized the significance of the station and organized a final assault against the base.
TCS Tiger's Claw traveled here from a brief stopover in Hubble's Star, and TCS Eagle's Talon joined them after their missions in Hell's Kitchen. The end of the battle and in turn the Vega Campaign was around 2654.287.
Christopher Blair's whereabouts during this period have never been published.[2]
Carl T. LaFong flew a few missions in Rapiers with Ian St. John in that system
- During a patrol they encountered a Ralari-class escorted by Khajja nar Ja'targk.[1]
- Assisted with Foxtrot Wing Rapiers from the TCS Kyoto, they moved against a Fralthi-class which was recently in contact with the Star Base.[3]
- Accompany the TCS Tiger's Claw as it moved into position for the final strike.[4]
- Final attack against a Ralari and the Headquarters.[5]
Following the mission Tiger's Claw headed towards Goddard for Operation: Thor's Hammer.
