The '''Hades Rebellion''' was an attempted coup initiated by rogue elements of the [[GTI]] following the events of the [[Great War]], and was catalogued in the [[Silent Threat]] campaign. These rebel [[GTI]] officers had managed to create the massive [[GTD Hades]] class of superdestroyer, which incorporated the same sort of Flux Cannons that had made the Shivan [[SD Lucifer|Lucifer]] class of destroyer so dangerous.
