SPOILER WARNING: First Formic War plot details follow.


The Battle of the Belt was a brief conflict between the Formic scout ship and Human mining vessels and space stations in the Belt that took place in 87 BX.[1]

Overview[]

As human ships in the Belt realized that an alien ship was coming, they united together against the common foe, and attempted to destroy it as it passed through.[1]

The Formic ship released a burst of gamma plasma exhaust while under barrage by the humans, which subsequently wiped out all the human ships who tried to take it down, as well as the asteroid outpost Kleopatra.[1]

Aftermath[]

The overwhelming destruction that resulted from the battle widely wiped out human infrastructure and communication in The Belt.[1]
