			The '''Hammer of Light Rebellion''' was a series of strikes conducted by [[Hammer of Light\|a splinter group]] of [[Vasudans]] against the allied [[Galactic Terran Alliance]] and [[Parliamentary Vasudan Navy]].

	==First encounters==		==First encounters==
			Shortly following the emergence of the [[Shivans]] in 2335 and the signing of the peace treaty, a group of Vasudans began willingly aiding the Shivan cause in accordance to ancient Vasudan legends. These Vasudans began making attacks on Vasudan and [[Terran]] targets in an attempt to aid the Shivan advance.

	~~The~~ first ~~appearance~~ of the [[Hammer of Light]] was during the escort of the shield prototypes from the [[Ribos]] system to [[Beta Cygni]]. They destroyed ~~defenceless~~ Vasudan freighters who were begging for help by the fighters escorting the prototypes. Loyally following their orders, the Terran fighters refused to help and the freighters were destroyed. At the end of the escort, a group of ~~Vasudan~~ fighters ~~were supposed~~ to ~~relieve~~ the ~~Terran pilots~~. The ~~jumping in real relievance unveilled~~ the ~~conspiracy~~ of ~~the [[Hammer of Light]] decoy and destroyed them, keeping the shield prototypes intact~~.		Among the first appearances of the [[Hammer of Light]] was during the escort of the shield prototypes from the [[Ribos]] system to [[Beta Cygni]]. They destroyed defenseless Vasudan freighters who were begging for help by the fighters escorting the prototypes. Loyally following their orders, the Terran fighters refused to help and the freighters were destroyed. At the end of the escort, a group of Hammer of Light fighters warped in, claiming to be relief for the Terrans. The ruse was later revealed by the arrival of loyalist forces.

	~~At this point, it was unknown how large this~~ rebellion ~~actually was~~. A mission to capture the PVC Ramses was launched~~, which was interrupted and circumvented by~~ the ~~arrival~~ of the [[SC Taranis]]. ~~The Ramses~~ was ~~destroyed. All~~ the ~~use~~ of this mission was that the ~~[[GTA]] learnt that the [[Hammer of Light]]~~ had acquired ~~their shielding~~ technology ~~as well~~.		The scope of the rebellion had been seriously underestimated. A mission to capture the PVC ''Ramses'' was launched in an attempt to find out more information about the rebellion. The interference of the [[SC Taranis\|SC ''Taranis'']] caused the destruction of the ''Ramses'' and the failure of the mission. It was over the course of this mission that it was discovered that the HoL had also acquired shield technology.

	==Notable engagements==		==Notable engagements==
			As the Vasudans had begun to prepare for a massive counteroffensive into the Shivan-controlled systems beyond [[Vega]], they were ambushed and destroyed by Hammer of Light forces. It appeared that the system would fall under the control of the rebels. The [[GTD Galatea\|GTD ''Galatea'']] was stationed nearby and was ordered to launch a series of assaults against Hammer of Light outposts to weaken their defenses. The new [[GTB Medusa\|GTB ''Medusa'']] technology was put to use along with the [[GTM Tsunami\|Tsunami]] anti-cruiser bomb. Complicating the engagement was the involvement of the Shivans, who attacked both sides indiscriminately.

	~~The tactics of the [[Hammer of Light]] was to interrupt engagements between the Shivans and the alliance. They kept interrupting battles in which they were usually defeated.~~		[[Antares]] was the next stop of the campaign against the Hammer. A secondary supply depot was located in an asteroid belt, in the vicinity of the jump node leading out of the system. The GTA managed to destroy all hostile targets and the depot was looted. After this victory, the ''Galatea'' was diverted to [[Beta Aquilae]].

They utilized the PVC ''Mauler'', an [[GVC Aten\|''Aten'']]-class cruiser, to ram the ''Galatea'' as well as other kamikaze fighters. The engagement ended with the destruction of all HoL units, but moderate damage inflicted upon the ''Galatea''.

			Following the destruction of the ''Lucifer'', the Hammer of Light's tactics shifted. Although they continued to oppose the Terrans and Vasudans, they turned more towards guerrilla warfare.

			Sometime after the formation of the GTVA (likely dates include either 2345 or 2358), the Hammer of Light successfully infiltrated the GVD ''Anhur'' in the [[Vasuda]] system. They managed to take possession of several ''Scarab'' class stealth prototypes on board the ''Anhur'' as well as capture Supreme Admiral Khu, an extremely important officer in the Vasudan navy. They were both unloaded onto transports and moved to the [[Alpha Centauri]] system in the ensuing confusion.

			The Hammer of Light then demanded the release of all captured HoL leaders in government custody in return for the release of the hostages. The hostages were later transferred to the HLD ''Tanis'', the last Hammer of Light destroyer, in the [[Aldebaran]] system. However, the stealth prototypes were destroyed by GTVA forces en route.

			The ''Tanis'' was later destroyed in an engagement with GTVA forces, although the hostages were safely extracted. However, in the [[Sirius]] system, the last outpost of the Hammer of Light remained. Supreme Admiral Khu, still under HoL custody, was transferred to the ''Nagada'' outpost. GTVA pilots were able to extract Khu and destroy the ''Nagada'' outpost, ending the Hammer of Light rebellion.
