While on Gallery, they struck a nerve with the House Stiner's General of the Armies and acting regent of Lyran Alliance, Nondi Steiner. They struck her estate on Gallery directly, which prompted her unknown to them to have 11th Arcturan Guards to "neutralize" them.

On Thuban, the unit had finished its operations and begun to move out when the 11th Arcturan hit one of their combine arms battalions left behind for repairs. The battalions in mists of repairs was destroyed, and setup final confrontation between it sister unit, which turn in to a bloody affair on slopes of Scorpiuus Mons it and its sister unit inflicted consisterable amount damage on one another.[1]
