The details of the war, outside of the conquest, were unspecified. Ma'Bor Jetrel, the originator of the metreon cascade, said that he believed he had done what needed to be done. Neelix stated that he thought the war was "unjust." He further explained that he thought "Talax was fighting for reasons that weren't worth killing for". However, he then clarified that in retrospect all this was just to rationalize being a coward. One notable engagement was the Battle of the Pyrithian Gorge.
