On the last day of the [[First Cylon War]], the colony [[Tauron]] was besieged by the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]] who had apparent ground, air and space superiority. | |||
With at least three [[basestar (RDM)|basestar]]s in orbit, the Cylons sent ground forces and [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]'s are deployed on the planet's surface. Colonial military ground forces engage in urban warfare with [[Centurion Model 0005]]s amidst bombed out buildings, trapping civilians (such as [[Helena Cain]]'s family) in the crossfire. | |||
During this midst of taking Tauron, the Cylons withdraw as they have signed an [[Cimtar Peace Accords|armistice]]. With their apparent superiority, it is likely that they would have taken Tauron had this event not occurred ("[[Razor]]", extended version). | |||
