==History==
===The Burrock Absorption===
During the [[Burrock Absorption]], Beta Galaxy was part of the initial assault on the disgraced [[Clan Burrock]]'s world of [[Albion (Clan System)|Albion]].  Beta would initially fight against Burrocks in their [[Trial of Absorption]] until the arrival of three Galaxies from [[Clan Blood Spirit]] who interrupted the Trial. Beta along with its other Galaxies would fight with Burrock against the Blood Spirit intruders. Beta would be ravaged in the fight with the Spirits, some Clusters only having a handful of survivors. With the threat over, Clan Star Adder's Khan [[Cassius N'Buta]] would resume his duel Burrock's surviving senior officer for control of Albion and ultimately fate Clan Burrock itself. After the conflict, unblooded Star Captain [[Stanislov N'Buta|Stanislov of N'Buta Bloodline]] would be elected by survivors of Beta to become Adder Keeper of the Clan.<ref>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', pp. 114, 121: "Clan Beta's action during the Absorption of Clan Burrock on Albion and its aftermath result"</ref>

The Galaxy would be decommissioned after taking massive losses during the Burrock Absorption, where one fragment of the Galaxy would remain. Its survivors would be transferred to [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Star Adder)|Alpha Galaxy]].<ref>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 123: "Alpha Galaxy" - The original Beta Galaxy's fate noted as the Absorption</ref> Reconstituted in late [[3062]] under command of the then Galaxy Commander Stanislov N'Buta, he would lead Beta as part of the brutal and bloody invasion of [[Clan Blood Spirit|Clan Blood Spirit's]] world of [[York (Clan System)|York]]. The Galaxy's initial assault would result in the destruction of one of the Spirit's WarShips, [[Lola III#Named Vessels|Blood Fury]]. Beta and its component Clusters would end up claiming southern reaches of the Boques continent.  The Galaxy would remain on planet as part Adder's conclave garrison force and blood many young Blood Spirit warriors due to determination of Spirits efforts to reclaim the lost region.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', pp. 51–52: "Beta Galaxy's resurrection and role in invasion of York in 3062"</ref>
