The '''Seventy-eighth Hellion Lancers''' Cluster was equipped with heavier equipment than was usually seen in Clan Ice Hellion. This equipment was usually slower than most Hellion gear, and so the Seventy-eighth was used to operating by itself.<ref name=otprt24>''Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials'', p. 24</ref> During the [[Hellion's Fury]] campaign, the Seventy-eighth landed on [[Foster]] to face the [[21st Vanguard Battle (Clan Fire Mandrill)|Twenty-first Vanguard Battle Cluster]]. They successfully defeated the Mandrill unit.<ref>''Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials'', p. 35</ref>

The Seventy-eighth had suffered heavy losses lately, in part because of internal fighting within the Clan in the late 3050s.<ref name=FM:CCp84>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 84: "75th Hellion Lancers Profile"</ref>

In [[3070]] the Cluster moved to [[Nouveaux Paris]] with the rest of Alpha Galaxy, arriving in September.<ref name=WoR55-6>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 55–56</ref> Mid-[[3071]] saw Alpha together with [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Delta Galaxy]] and the newly arrived [[Zeta Prime Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Zeta Prime Galaxy]] form the primary attack force under [[Khan]] Montrose. This force moved against [[Clan Jade Falcon]] industrial worlds of the Falcon Occupation Zone, fighting in multiple systems.<ref name=WoR69>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 69</ref>

The exact fate of the Cluster is not recorded, but in [[3072]] Alpha Galaxy retreated to [[Vantaa]], here along with the remnant of [[Zeta Prime Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Zeta Prime Galaxy]] they were assaulted by [[Clan Jade Falcon|Clan Jade Falcon's]] [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Alpha]] and [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Delta]] Galaxies as well as [[Clan Hell's Horses]]'s [[Iota Galaxy (Clan Hell's Horses)|Iota Galaxy]]. The two understrength Hellion Galaxies took up a defensive position in an industrial complex, as the Hell's Horses advanced the Hellions called in an orbital bombardment from the ''[[Cage's Pride]]''. This tore apart the Horse front line but also shattered much of the industrial complex resulting in a toxic spillage of chemicals in the air. Alpha was left in a state of confusion when Khan Montrose was killed during a Falcon flank attack. The Galaxy, including the Seventy-eighth, was effective destroyed by combat and toxic fumes.<ref name=WoR85>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 85</ref>
