History
In January 3059 the Hessian Horsemen took a contract on the planet Durham from the Draconis Combine. They were employed to prevent the raids of a pirate band know as Corazon's Cossacks. They were also tasked with locating the pirate base of operations and destroying the raiders as well. Later the same month the pirates arrived via a pirate point located close to Durham's moon and made planet fall. The Horsemen repelled this attack on and managed to plant an undercover agent within the Cossack’s ranks. This spy allowed them to track the pirates back to their base. In March the Horsemen ambushed a group of Cossacks on Labbezanga and in April they had tracked the pirates to Isfahan and destroyed them in combat. [1]
During this contract the Horsemen made use of both their Intruders for action in space, using them to ferry platoons of marines in boarding actions that captured two pirate JumpShips.
