The Battle of Dverger Starzone (Japanese: ドヴェルグ星域会戦) was a battle of the Alliance–Imperial War which took place in the Dverger Starzone in 796 UC (487 IC / 3596 CE). The battle occurred within the scope of a larger campaign which included the Battle of Jafnhár, the Battle of Bilrost, the Battle of Alviss, and the Battle of Amritsar. (LOGH: 'The Battle of Amritsar Starzone')

History

The battle occurred as part of the Imperial counterattack against the invading Alliance fleets. With the Alliance supply line severed, the Alliance forces were short of supplies. Attempts to forage triggered revolts in the local population, further sapping the strength of the Alliance forces.

The 7th Fleet was in the Dverger starzone when engaged by the Kircheis Fleet. With low supplies, the 7th Fleet was quickly defeated and the suvivors accepted the offer to surrender after they were surrounded. ('The Battle of Amritsar Starzone')
