Andurien Secession
During the Andurien Secession, the 13th Marik Militia attacked the Federated Commonwealth world of Wasat. This wasn't a serious attempt to take the world, but rather a way for Thomas Marik to gain political support at home and disrupt the Sarna March. [2] In 3036 the 13th Marik Militia led forces loyal to Duncan Marik onto Andurien soil by attacking Ingonish. They were supported by the 3rd Free Worlds Guards and the Iron Guard regiments.[3]
Clan Invasion
In 3047, the Militia saw action against the 17th Arcturan Guard RCT. [4] By 3050, the Militia was stationed on Irian. [5] They were still on Irian as of 3054. [6]
Operation Guerrero
During Operation Guerrero the 13th Militia returned to Wasat, this time accompanied by the 4th Oriente Hussars, 2nd Sirian Lancers, and 21st Centauri Lancers. They captured the world, destroying the 2nd Republican in the process.[7] After these events, they moved to their homeworld, Irian.[8]
