Battle of Edowin

The Battle of Edowin occured in 2005 during the Tau'ri-Wraith war.

Prelude
Lt. Col. John Sheppard and his team were captured by Aiden Ford's gang. They were captured so that they could formulate a plan to destroy a Hive Ship by using the C-4 they stole from the Genii. Both teams manage to make a damaged Wraith Dart operational. However, as they entered the Hive ship, they were easily outnumbered and were all stunned and sent to the brig.

Meanwhile, Dr. Weir sent Maj. Lorne and his team to find Sheppards team, but with a wide number of planets in the Pegasus Galaxy, the chances of finding them were slim at best. McKay was eventually able to escape Ford's compound by overpowering the guards whilst under the influence of the Wraith enzyme. He came back to Atlantis, where he went through withdrawal. After finally recovering, he managed to have tracked the Hive Ship to a planet named Edowin. However, the Hive has allied with another hive ship to cull this world.

The Daedalus was quickly dispatched to the planet and send Lorne and McKay by a cloaked Jumper to rescue Sheppard and Ford's team. They attempt to radio Sheppard, but recieve no signal, so they assumed they were killed. They returned to the Daedalus to destroy the ships.

The Battle
Col. Caldwell intended to beam Nuclear warheads, but they managed to have installed the Jamming code, preventing such action. Now that the ships were aware of the Daedalus, they had to destroy the Hive ships, before they could escape and tell every Wraith that Atlantis may not have been destroyed. Whilst the Daedalus attacks the hive ships with railguns, Sheppard, Ford, Teyla and Ronon managed to have escaped from their captivity, but Ford takes his own way.

Sheppard manages to aquire a Dart and beamed Teyla and Ronon out. After leaving the Hive ship, the other Darts were heading towards Edowin, so Sheppard decides to fire on the neighbouring Hive ship. This started a battle between two squadrons of Darts. Eventully, the two Hives fired on each other, until both of them was destroyed. However, after the destruction, the Daedalus detected nothing but debris, assuming Sheppard was killed in the process.

Aftermath
However, Sheppard manages to fly the Dart to the planet, before becoming part of the debris. He gated to another planet, dropped of Teyla and Ronon and abandoned the Dart, before gating back to Atlantis.
