When some 3,000 former Smoke Jaguars escaped from Huntress under the leadership of former Star Colonel [[Paul Moon]] in August 3060, Myers detached his personal [[Cluster]], the [[35th Scorpion Cuirassiers (Escorpión Imperio)|35th Scorpion Cuirassiers]], from Alpha Galaxy and pursued the refugees down the Exodus Road to Wayside V, the isolated location of a former Smoke Jaguar resupply depot.<ref>''Forever Faithful'', p. 251</ref>  The rest of Alpha Galaxy remained in garrison on Huntress under the command of Myers' subordinates.  Myers' unauthorized pursuit of the former Jaguars ended in a debacle, and after he and the survivors of the Thirty-fifth were forced to work as laborers to grow enough food for the return trip to Clan space, he returned to Huntress in March 3064 in disgrace.  After Myers explained that he had learned a great deal about himself, that he had been broken and remade as a new man, and had paid a heavy price for his arrogance, Goliath Scorpion Khan [[Ariel Suvorov]] left him in command of the Thirty-fifth to give him the chance to redeem himself but required him to retest for his position as Alpha Galaxy commander.<ref>''Forever Faithful'', pp. 272–274</ref>

In November 3074 Khan Suvorov took at least one Cluster from Alpha Galaxy, the Twenty-fourth Cuirassiers, to [[Shadow]] on a mission to meet [[Clan Fire Mandrill]]. However a full naval Star from [[Clan Coyote]] prevented their landing on the planet and the Khan moved her force on to [[Dagda (Clan System)|Dagda]] instead.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 127: "Scorpion Gambit"</ref> Here they found the planet in decline, its ecosystem had become unstable. The few Mandrill survivors still on the planet were rescued and absorbed into the Clan after a brief Trial of Possession which saw Khan Suvorov knock out Star Colonel Hampton Schroeder in a boxing match.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 129: "Scorpion Gambit"</ref>

Fighting continued for a least a further week before orbital bombardment reduced the last Viper strongpoint to dust.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 150–151: "Focused Aggression"</ref>
