===Formation===
After the merging of the Republic into the Ghost Bear Dominion, Clan Ghost Bear would by [[3074]] reorganize the KungsArmé into a new Clan oriented military fighting force. The regiment had been cut in half and reduced to a Battalion size unit and tweaked into a Clan Cluster. During the 2nd Kavalleri reconfigured as a Clan Ghost Bear second-line force, much of its original members would undertake a series of [[Trial of Position|Trials of Position]] to retain their place in the Cluster.  Assigned to the newly formed Polar Galaxy, the unit would soon be redeployed within the Dominion in order to free up Clan frontline Combat units to fight the [[Word of Blake]].<ref>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 59: Reorganization of KungsArmé, which includes the 2nd Kavalleri as a Clan Ghost Bear combat force</ref><ref>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 101: Domestic Affairs - KungsArmé merger and Trials to retain their warrior status noted</ref><ref>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 113: Unit's formation and reconfiguration as a BattleMech Cluster from its Regimental origins</ref>

===Ice Hellion Raid of Damian===
 
===Ice Hellion Raid of Damian===
In early [[3076]], Clan Ice Hellion assaulted the world of [[Damian]] after series of raids through the Ghost Bear Dominion. The 2nd Kavalleri's aerospace fighter elements forced the Hellion DropShips to ground themselves. Despite being understrength, the Kavalleri's ground and aerospace fighters conducted a series of hit and run attacks on Clan Ice Hellion warriors in an attempt to keep it pinned down until reinforcements could arrive. In course of the fighting outside of the planetary capital, the forest which battle was occurring would be set ablaze as the Kavalleri were taken apart by Hellion forces.  Despite that, the Kavalleri's sister Clusters [[2nd Freemen (Clan Ghost Bear)|2nd Freemen]] and [[3rd Drakøns (Rasalhague Dominion)|3rd Drakøn]] successfully destroyed the Hellion raiders.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 72: Hellion Renegades Test Rasalhague Defense - 2nd Kavalleri's battle on Damian and its unfortunate outcome for the 2nd Kavalleri</ref>

During the [[Second Combine-Dominion War]], the Second was posted to [[Trondheim (FRR)|Trondheim]] in [[3100]]. The Draconis Combine had dispatched the [[11th Ghost]] regiment, supported by the WarShip, DCS ''[[Draconis Rift]]'' in an attempt to take the planet. When the Eleventh landed, the Second sent a request for reinforcements to [[Rasalhague]], and they held defensive positions in the planet's spaceport. Just as the Second was going to leave to engage the Combine forces, the rest of Polar Galaxy arrived and forced the [[DCMS]] units to withdraw.<ref>''Historical: Wars of the Republic Era'', p. 35</ref>
