An outpost on the planet Hesperus, Outpost 29 was operated by the Mobile Infantry during the Battle of Hesperus.
History[]
One of the Federation outposts on Hesperus Outpost 29 located in Badland country became cutoff from other Federation forces after Arachnids began launching attacks against it. Marauder 6 was deployed to reinforce Outpost 29 shortly before a large Arachnid force attacked the outpost, which initially was repulsed. However, a DR-8 Skyhook carrying a powercore (to activate the outpost's beacon) and automated minelayers crashed short of the outpost, forcing the Marauder to leave the outpost and retrieve them from the crashsite. After obtaining these, the Marauder returned to the outpost setting up the minelayers by its exterior and activating the powercore. This was just in time as a second wave of Arachnids consisting of Warrior Bugs and Hopper Bugs attacked the outpost in force. This force of Arachnids was so heavy that the Federation realised that it could not be held and sent a squadron of TAC Fighters on a bombing run by to slow the enemy forces. During the attack, a Tanker Bug appeared smashing the front wall of the outpost and killing several troopers inside until Marauder 6 was able to destroy it. A DR-8 Skyhook was deployed onto the outpost and the remaining troopers and Marauder evacuated the outpost onboard it.
