- 08.V.1664: Outraged, the Kaiser deprived Eki Verion of her noble title, effectively deposing her from government in Elwynn[3];
- 09.VI.1664: Fall Hagg-Ellen began[4].
Air campaign
The initial target for Imperialist air strikes were the radar, air traffic control, and command and control systems of the Elwynnese Republic. Stockpiles of precision guided munitions, having been expended during the War of Lost Brothers, had not recovered to the point where the Imperial Forces felt justified in wasting what they had on domestic opposition. Accordingly the first strike wave, sortieing from Bomber Command airfields in Mishalan on the morning of the 10th of Fasmas, 1664, carried free-falling iron bombs, and their targets - the airports of Ardashirshahr, Eliria, and Vijayanagara, were to be subject to area bombardment. Each airport was assigned an entire bomber group (each comprised of 264 B-49 delta-winged strategic bombers).
