With Furillo a key source of matériel for the [[LAAF]] during the [[FedCom Civil War]], the world was targeted as part of the first thrust of [[Operation SCATTER]], [[Victor Steiner-Davion]]'s multipronged attack to restrict the Loyalist's ability to effectively respond and attack his forces. Allied troops led by the rogue [[Com Guards|Com Guard]] [[244th Division (ComStar)|244th Division]] easily brushed aside the Furillo BPM's defensive lines to claim the Defiance factories on world within three days. Brutally rebuffing the militia's attempts to recapture the factory complex, the 244th finally withdrew after the arrival of the [[Fox (WarShip class)|''Fox''-class]] LAS ''Robert Kelswa'', lifting off on 17 July [[3064]] with their [[DropShip]]s filled with vital matériel and supplies.<ref name=FCCW-104>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 104: "Operation Scatter"</ref>

In [[3145]] the Furillo BPM was stationed on [[Eidsfoss]],<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Lyran Commonwealth'', p. 14</ref> a world near the Commonwealth's border with the [[Wolf Empire]]. For any assault on [[Furillo]], the Wolves would need to take Eidsfoss, so their presence on that world indicates how seriously the LCAF High Command took the threat presented by the Wolves. The High Command also stationed two additional wings of aerospace fighters to the world to provide additional defense.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 131</ref>

The Furillo BPM prefers to use light 'Mechs and VTOLs to engage an enemy via hit and run and other mobile attacks.<ref name=FMLAp111/> While stationed on Eidsfoss, the BPM set up a strategy to help use its supply of [[Swallow (Combat Vehicle)|Swallow WiGEs]]. The unit established a number of supply dumps on islands or aboard bluewater vessels, allowing the vehicles to attack by swooping in at the shorelines, then withdrawing across the water for resupply.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3150'', p. 70: Swallow WiGE</ref>
