Editing Pacification of the Chwiorydd Hardd (section)

==The attack==

The Strike Cruisers ''Détermination'', ''Endurance'', and ''Ténacité'' warped into the system with their escorts.  The few slave-ships they found in system would have been no match for even one of the cruisers, and were swiftly disabled and boarded.  No prisoners were taken from the Xenos crews, but the liberated human captives were taken aboard the Fifth's medical vessels for genetic screening and rehabilitation.  Gaspard Lumey and Fabrice Diallo led drop pod assaults against their designated landing sites on CH-3 and CH-4, quickly securing their objectives.  Meanwhile, the transports bearing the nascent [[Ciban Chasseurs]] entered the Chwiorydd Hardd system.  The efficiency of Lumey's Space Marines meant that the auxilia had an easy way down, and the Marshal d'Orléans' charges were soon disembarking on the surface of the planets CH-3 and CH-4, ready to begin the ground campaign.

On CH-4, Diallo's forces found minimal resistance and swiftly liquidated the Amatteir found there.  The planet had been arranged as a pleasure park and the slaves, if mistreated, had been kept in fairly sanitary conditions.  CH-3 was a work camp and Lumey's group faced much stiffer resistance, led by a skilled commander.  However, the Amatteir garrison lacked heavy weaponry and their determination was no match for the Fifth's firepower and the Power Armour of the Adeptus Astartes.  Gaspard Lumey's men overwhelmed their foes and put the Xenos to the sword.

With the whole Amatteir garrison eliminated, the Fifth Legion declared victory.  Casualties had been light and the slaver plague that infested the Al-Sherar sector had been weakened.
