[[Andromeda (TV series)|Andromeda]] was conceived by Gene Roddenberry in the early 1970s and posthumously produced on his behalf by his widow Majel Barrett-Roddenberry. Captain [[Dylan Hunt]] is a member of the [[Systems Commonwealth]]'s [[High Guard]]; he and his ship the [[Andromeda Ascendant]] are frozen in time. They awaken 300 years in the future, where [[Dylan Hunt|Hunt]] discovers that the Commonwealth has fallen and the universe has fallen into chaos, with the strong preying on the weak. Deciding to change all of this, Hunt sets out with a new crew to create a new Commonwealth and bring order to a chaotic galaxy. With this impossible task in front of him, Dylan must come up with a way to convince races to sign up while fighting off some of the galaxy's most fearsome enemies, including the [[Magog]] (and their god the [[Spirit of the Abyss]]) and the [[Nietzschean]]s, whilst also dealing with the problems and betrayals of the members of his new crew.

'''''The Battle of Samsarra''''' was a battle between the [[Systems Commonwealth|Commonwealth]] and the Pyrians over the territorial ownership of the planet of [[Samsarra]].
+
The '''Battle of Brandenburg Tor''' was the first major encounter and battle fought between the [[Systems Commonwealth]] and the [[Magog]].
[[image:pyrianbattle2.jpg|right|thumb|230px]]
 
==Prelude==
 
The Andromeda had gone to Samsarra because the Commonwealth colonists had sent a distress call. The Pyrians had dropped 24 atmosphere generators that were spewing Carbon dioxide, Methane, and Carbon Sulfides into their atmosphere and left without speaking a word to the colonists. If the generators where left in place, then the planet would not have been able to support oxygen breathing life within a month. The [[Andromeda Ascendant|Andromeda]] destroyed all of the generators, and Captain [[Dylan Hunt|Hunt]] called for combined [[Systems Commonwealth|Commonwealth]] fleet to blockade [[Samsarra]]. But, several hours after he sent the call for backup, [[Rommie]] detected [[Pyrian]] ships entering the system.
 
==The Battle==
 
The [[Pyrian]] fleet was a huge battle group made of several dozen [[Torchship|Torchships]], 2 Dropships, and other escort craft. The [[Andromeda Ascendant|Andromeda]] was badly...[[Battle of Samsarra|''Read More'']]

Andromeda was conceived by Gene Roddenberry in the early 1970s and posthumously produced on his behalf by his widow Majel Barrett-Roddenberry. Captain Dylan Hunt is a member of the Systems Commonwealth's High Guard; he and his ship the Andromeda Ascendant are frozen in time. They awaken 300 years in the future, where Hunt discovers that the Commonwealth has fallen and the universe has fallen into chaos, with the strong preying on the weak. Deciding to change all of this, Hunt sets out with a new crew to create a new Commonwealth and bring order to a chaotic galaxy. With this impossible task in front of him, Dylan must come up with a way to convince races to sign up while fighting off some of the galaxy's most fearsome enemies, including the Magog (and their god the Spirit of the Abyss) and the Nietzscheans, whilst also dealing with the problems and betrayals of the members of his new crew.
