Overview
The Free Worlds League Military attacked Hsien hoping to secure the world's freshwater supplies.
Lieutenant Martin Davis led a command lance for the Fifteenth Dracon against the FWLM during the 2934 Battle of Hsien. His 'Mech's jump capabilities combined with its long-range fire support allowed Martin to hold the attacking force at bay for several days of fighting outside the village of Transe. He also discovered the inherent difficulties of the Anderson 21 jump jets when they overheated several times in combat.[1][3]
