Both divisions quickly found themselves under fire from the [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Wolves' Beta Galaxy]] and [[Khan]] [[Natasha Kerensky]]'s [[13th Wolf Guards (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|13th Wolf Guards]] as they attempted to prevent the Com Guard forces linking up, both taking heavy losses and requiring the addition of the [[11th Army (ComStar)|11th Army]] to reinforce them.<ref name=T-90>''Tukayyid'', p. 90: "Campaign: Clan Wolf"</ref><ref name=CS-71>''ComStar'', pp. 71–72: "Battle of Tukayyid"</ref><ref name=WC-50>''Wolf Clan'', pp. 50–51: "Days of Armageddon - Wolf"</ref> One of the more notable actions involving the troop of 366th was between a heavy [[Combat Vehicle]] [[Level II]] and the [[Phelan Kell|Phelan]] led [[Nova (unit)|recon Nova]] of the Wolf Spiders in the aptly named Bloody Basin Pass.<ref name=T-93>''Tukayyid'', p. 93: "Bloody Basin Pass [25]"</ref> ===Post-Tukayyid=== Recouping its losses from Tukayyid primarily with fresh [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] graduates from the [[Sandhurst Military College]], now green rated 366th was transformed into a IV-iota formation.
