Following the Human Unions first contact war against the Sirich the Union took no short corners in ensuring its defenses against future alien threats to include sending Wraith Corps ships into Lumon Empire space to monitor and collect data on the potential enemy. After almost ten years of monitoring the Lumon Empire was able to track data collection being sent to what would be revealed to be Conquest the Human Union military stronghold. Upon arrival the Lumon Empire demanded the immediate surrender of Humanity and in trade they would be conscripted as slave labor rather than face extermination. In Humanities refusal to accept the Lumon Empire War had begun.

Conquest was the first planet to fall however not on the Empires initial attempt. Beginning a bombardment of the planet Wraith Corps ships were able to catch the Empire off guard and decimate their numbers while the Union fleets enggaged the enemy head on. The small imperial scouting fleet was forced to surrender. The failure on Conquest did no sit well with the Lumon Emperor who prepared a show of force fleet to wipe out any trace of Humanity on the planet. Arriving only four short days later the Lumon Empire decimated the Union forces and Knight soldiers on the ground were helpless to stop the enemy as the Union shifted priorities from defense to evacuating as many Knight soldiers from the planet as possible. A Lumon carrier took innumerable cannon hits and suffered no real damaging giving them a startling intimidating reputation amongst the Union. This major defeat and loss of a strategic point on the side of the Union offered great foreshadow to the majority of the war.
