Age of War[edit]

In 2511, Sondra Black Davion, widow of Edward Davion, was killed in action above Avigait when her DropShip was destroyed in battle. This left her son Alexander Davion orphaned and was one of the factors that played into the subsequent Davion Civil War.[29]

Operation GALAHAD[edit]

In 3026, Colonel Steven Zaks and his Twelfth Donegal Guards participated in the Operation GALAHAD wargames on Avigait, joining with AFFS Marshal Jackson Davion and his Second Crucis Lancers in a training exercise combining the two forces into a unified Federated Commonwealth coalition in preparation for the merger of the Steiner and Davion militaries into a single, centralized army. They were tasked with executing a joint-operation to destroy a decommissioned orbital defense system being garrisoned by Crater Cobras and Nik's Cavaliers mercenary forces.[30]

Colonel Zaks and his Guards were in position before the Lancers and, impatient and overestimating the abilities of the mercenaries, started the attack without them. The lack of coordination between the two Houses allowed the mercenaries to repel their forces and launch an immediate counterattack on their headquarters. The bulk of the Crater Cobras advanced on them, prompting the coalition forces to overcompensate with too many units to face them after their earlier failure; however, this was only a diversion, as this allowed the Cavaliers to conduct a surgical strike and take out their leader, Colonel Ardan Sortek, behind enemy lines. The mercenaries won the game, and Sortek ordered Colonel Zaks and Marshal Davion back to the coalition headquarters for a long debriefing.[30]
