+After an initial successful campaign at 215/1 (See Pivotal Battles) Linnaeus continued to refine the Legion, giving increased autonomy his Lord Commanders and dispatching several Battalions to serve in other expeditionary fleets as had the old III Legion, this initially left the 215th somewhat under strength for a Legions core fleet but this was quickly made up by a large number of Magi and Warlords appealing to field their troops alongside the unusually cooperative Astartes legion.

 Intelligence from captives in all cases was used to divide and conquer survivors with the surprisingly adept political minds of the IIIrd manipulating the delicate balance of the belt to bring compliance to some clans peacefully and manipulate others into direct confrontations or traps. All in all Operation Phoenix was an exceptional success and brought praise from the Emperor himself, allowing the outer Sol system campaigns to continue unhindered and establishing that the Third could indeed operate like their peers when needed, rather than glorified babysitters.

 His strategy was not a traditional decapitation strike though, the canny rulers of this world had kept their centre of power hidden, a puppet senate merely doing as ordered was not even a target in the initial strikes. No, whilst the world's defenders clustered at military and political targets Linnaeus struck at a far more vital target, the great reservoirs that held the planets precious water supplies. Tearing through their minimal garrisons and counter attacks they laid charges which blew the reservoirs open sending their contents deep into the planets undercity and away from those who depended on it.
-As citizens began to riot and defence force's discipline fractured the Star Lions started striking at their true targets, the proxy rulers and military leaders attempting to regain control of the situation for their hidden masters and in doing so gave up intelligence on their true targets, the so called "Sith lords" secretly controlling the empire. At this point Nemean Lions were still relatively rare, the Gargoyles perhaps too thinly spread and the initial Sith strikes were devastating, but if anything the Lions counter attack was a return tenfold, Linnaeus striking at the head of a mix of former Seekers and Terran veterans directly at every revealed Sith via Stormbird and tearing the heart from their order with his own hands.

 At this point Imperial army forces began landing in great numbers, bringing with them water supplies harvested from the asteroid belt and quickly refilling all compliant reserves. With a stark choice between thirst and compliance resistance was quickly crushed, the Star lions remaining on station to bloodily destroy the last few diehards and ensure secondary fortified reservoirs were under construction, after all, if it was done once it could be done again, this Lion closes the door when he comes in.

 One of the closing actions in the Sol Campaign Operation Phoenix was the first solo operation by the III Legion against the various petty fleets of the Asteroid Belt, an exemplary campaign it takes pride of place amongst [[Lord Commander Hercule Vanzamt]]'s battle honours.
