Dai'gor Campaign

The Dai'gor Campaign (2530 - present) is the ongoing military conflict involving the Yamatai Imperial Military's attempts to pacify Dai'gor's non-Human indigenous population, the Nekari. It is a part of the Alliance-Yamatai War and by extension the Divine Mission. The main aims of the Dai'gor Campaign are to subjugate or eradicate the non-Human Nekari to preserve the supremacy of Humanity and to fulfil the Divine Destiny of Humanity. Secondary aims include attempting to halt Nekari raids on Yamataian civilian settlements, attaining control of Dai'gor for human colonisation, and attempting to secure a victory in the Alliance-Yamatai War.

In 2030, the last in a series of 250 demands that the Nekari submit themselves to Human domination was rejected by the barbaric non-Humans. After counsel with the Gods and Her ancestors, the Empress Teruko herself ordered the Shogun to act and deal with the Nekari once and for all. In late 2030, the Yamatai Imperial Navy launched a full-scale attack into Nekari Space with the largest combined fighting force in the history of Yamatai, involving fifteen fleets and over 400 capital ships. The Battle of the Dai'gor System eventually resulted in a Yamataian victory, and the SNLF made landfall on Dai'gor in early 2031, but were forced to retreat off-planet. It was only in late 2031 that the SNLF was able to secure a solid foothold on Dai'gor in the Hirumi Archipelago.

The Nekari would prove to be tenacious both in space and planetside, continuously wrestling for space superiority and besieging the few SNLF and Army fortresses established on the planet itself.

It has been a stalemate for around 20 years. Ground fighting is heavy, as well as underwater fighting and space battles. Orbital bombardment cannot hit the main Nekari settlements as they are so deep underwater, while the Nekari are able to easily blockade the Yamataian landing zones on the islands.
