The '''Twenty-second Blood Cavalry''' was a Cluster built around [[ProtoMech]]s. The Twenty-second was raised around 3072 and was one of four new ProtoMech [[Cluster]]s assigned to [[Omicron Provisional Galaxy (Clan Blood Spirit)|Omicron Galaxy]]. Their first action came on [[Eden]] with attacks against the [[Clan Star Adder]] and [[Clan Hell's Horses]] enclaves, they showed no mercy to the Adders in retribution for the bombardment of [[York (Clan System)|York]] the previous year. After Eden, the Cluster moved to [[Arcadia (Clan System)|Arcadia]] and then [[Albion (Clan System)|Albion]]. On reaching the planet, the Cluster made a combat drop straight onto one of the Adder enclaves, which fell quickly. <ref name=wor122>''The Wars of Reaving'', p.122 </ref> A week later, they moved against a second Adder enclave, here the fighting was more fierce, they took heavy damage from aerospace attacks before the Spirits withdrew and obliterated both Adder enclaves with orbital bombardment.<ref name=wor123>''The Wars of Reaving'', p.123 </ref>
