The Battle of Jorringmund
The battle of Jorringmund also known as the night of the fallen skies was an engagement between the Sinhte Corp 3rd Scout division and a significant force of Green Dragon Coalition starships above the skies of planet Jorringmund.
The battle is known for two reasons. The first being that the engagement started by a mistake in translation that caused the two forces to start firing at each other with no provocation. The second is the fact that the battle of Jorringmund was the first time that an orbital station deorbited and landed on top of a heavily populated civilian colony killing over 150,000 colonists in seconds.
