The Devil's Brigade was present on [[Outreach]] when the [[Word of Blake]] started their Jihad, but left shortly after the initial attack.<ref>''Total Chaos'', p. 39</ref> Chandresekhar Kurita sent them to investigate the remains of [[New Dallas]]. There they found little of interest at first, but when they began deep scans of [[SLDF]] ruins, they found a Star League Memory Core. Before they could escape however, a [[Level III]] from the Word of Blake's [[19th Division (Word of Blake)|19th Division]] arrived. The Devil's Brigade escaped through a bunker complex and dodged the Blakists for another week before lifting off with the New Dallas Memory Core.<ref name=HTPNWp5>''Historical Turning Points: New Dallas'', p. 5</ref>
