Second Battle of Deneva

The Second Battle of Deneva was an engagement during the Earth-Romulan War fought between the Coalition of Planets and Romulan Star Empire over the planet Deneva.

Background
The planet Deneva was one of Earth's major colonies when it was captured by Romulan forces after a brief battle. At the time of this battle Earth forces had already won two major battles at Berengaria and Altair VI and were hoping to build on this momentum with a victory at Deneva. (

The Battle
The battle happened quickly with Romulan vessels being destroyed quickly after a vicious fight in which three Earth warships were destroyed and the other Coalition vessels took very heavy damage. At the same time MACO ground troops engaged the Romulan forces, forcing their retreat from Deneva. Afterwards, they discovered the dead bodies of Deneva's colonists who had been killed by the occupying forces. 

Aftermath
Earth gains another victory and retakes another former colony.
