In August [[3132]] the [[HPG]] network largely went offline or was attacked during the event later dubbed "[[Gray Monday]]".<ref>''Era Digest: Dark Age'', p. 10: Dark Age Timeline - Gray Monday / HPG Crash listed</ref> True to their mission, the First Kearny were deployed across Prefecture III aiding in putting down uprisings and newly arisen splinter groups trying to gain power for themselves. Under the direction of Prefecture III's Prefect Tara Campbell, the First Kearny served as a roving troubleshooting force across her and neighboring Prefectures during the early years of the Blackout. The First Kearny along with two newly created sister regiments (the [[Northwind Fusiliers]] and shortly after the [[Republic Guards (Northwind Highlanders)|Republic Guards]]) would end being spread thin across the Rimward and Spinward portions of the Republic.

Elements of the First Kearny would end up engaged in fighting an invasion of Northwind itself, by [[Steel Wolves]], a Clan-oriented splinter group, twice. Over the course of nine months (first in June [[3133]] and in February [[3134]]) with minimum resources, Campbell and the elements of the regiment would end up fighting off two takeover attempts by the Steel Wolves and its uncanny leader, [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Anastasia Kerensky]]. Despite betrayal of Paladin [[Ezekiel Crow]], the Highlanders succeeded, mounted what amounts to a counterattack to stop Steel Wolves from its next destination, which would soon be found out as [[Terra]]. The First Kearny with the rest of the available Northwind Highlanders Tara Campbell could muster, end up fighting off Steel Wolves with the [[Tenth Principes Guards]] on the fields of former nation of Russia in April.

The regiment would continue to be stretched for a few more months until they would be requested to muster on [[Skye]], where they would face threat of invasion by [[Clan Jade Falcon]]. They would need to dig in and help build clever strategies as they faced elements of multiple [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] of troops after the Clan had captured a number of [[Prefecture VIII]] and [[Prefecture IX|IX]] worlds. The regiment, along with other coalition forces (including Steel Wolves) would manage to repulse the Falcons' first invasion in August 3134, however they would be forced to withdraw from Skye failing to fight off the second attack.<ref>''Era Digest: Dark Age'', pp. 8–10, 15–16: Brief highlights of the combat for Northwind, Terra, and Skye noted</ref><ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', pp. 14–15: Descend - Campbell and Highlanders effort noted and more details of the Battle for Skye</ref>
