As the Rebel Coalition's war effort against the Imperium gains momentum and more planets are militarily wrestled from the Empress' domination, the Corterie continues to pit Sith against Sith in a civil war that may yet tear the Imperium apart from the inside out. To further destabilise an already bruised and now-bloodied Empire, those fighting under the banner of the True Throne have begun to make their move alongside of the Rebel Coalition; exiled sons and daughters of the late-Galactic Empire, men and women who would see Sithspawn removed absolutely from their worlds.
Having served as the capital of the Imperial Remnant and the proceeding Fel Empire, the fortress world of Bastion has become little more than another blip on the New Sith Imperium's map. Even with the core world of Anaxes now granted the dubious honour of being the Imperium's capital, the sectors of the northern Outer Rim - a decade ago the Empire's beating heart - yet remain the furthest territories from the Rebel Coalition's grasp. A new frontline in the war against the Imperium, however, may yet be drawn across the galactic map.
Taking advantage of information provided by the turncoat Ubiqtorate, the Imperial Knights and their Rebel benefactors have taken steps to reach out and open discussion with individuals of importance within the Imperial Armed Forces, as well as the Corterie, who's potential for dissidence has been secretly noted by the former spymasters of the Imperium. Together with those imprisoned and since released by the Ubiqtorate's deception, the Imperial Knights and those forces aligned under the banner of the True Throne begin to plan and set into motion a series of events that will, Force willing, see the fortress planet of Bastion and other neighbouring Imperial worlds taken from under the very nose of the Sith Imperium.

T;DR: Calixis' workspace for opening a potential second, internal, front from within the Imperium.
This idea is very much inspired by the Empire-in-Exile from the Legacy comics and it's not coincidence that the territory they are seeking to lay claim to and expand from is the same as those of Fel's exiles, albeit not quite so many worlds, at not initially. The logic here is that with the Coalition gaining momentum and really starting to pound at the Imperium's door, coupled with the Corterie in open rebellion, the True Throne's forces can finally get the foothold they need to rally those who want rid of the Sith - Empress' loyalists AND Corterie - to their side.
The theory is that those who have sworn loyalty to the True Throne will assemble their forces on and close to Bastion, taking advantage of those in some position of authority to arrange such 'exercises' and 'transfers' to put them in position. Then, overwhelm the few Sith remaining planetside, as well as what loyalists remain, and take control. This initial event would involve a couple of 'Battle of-' threads between loyalist IAF and True Throne characters, as well as the Sith. Due to the sheer number of forces gathered however, Bastion would be lost in a matter of hours. The rest of the campaign remains up for debate of coursell being well, the Imperium is too focused on its frontline with the Coalition, the Coterie - and potentially the Hutt Cartel(?) - to afford throwing everything they have at the True Throne's planets.
Work-in-Progress
