Though this allows the BPM access to equipment they wouldn't otherwise receive, the natives of Furillo have accused the BPM of valuing companies more than people. The Furillo BPM received several [[Condor (Combat Vehicle)#Variants|Condor Trans-Track]] hovercraft in the late 3040's.<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Boondoggles'', p. 9</ref> ===FedCom Civil War=== 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> ===Jihad=== [[Dixie]] saw a battalion of the Knights of the [[Inner Sphere]] assault the world on 10 September 3068.

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.
