Overview

The Earth Defense Campaign of 2668 was the Kilrathis attempt at settling the conflict once and for all by launching a massive invasion Confederation space with Earth as it's final target. The assault was built around the newly constructed massive Hakaga Fleet Carriers. The Confederation hastily rallied it's fleets and attempted to halt the advance at the Battle of Sirius but is forced to retreat with catastrophic civilian losses. The remainder of the Confederation fleets made a last stand at the Battle of Earth and finally managed to rout the Kilrathi Hakaga-fleet. Before that, Earth had been critically damaged by anti-matter rockets. In the end the campaign resulted in a Kilrathi tactical defeat but the Confederations infrastructure was critically damaged with massive civilian casualties and it's defence fleets crippled.
