During the [[War of 3039]] '''Matar''' was targeted for its strategic position. From Matar the attackers could land on either [[Proserpina]] or [[Irurzun]]. The [[1st Kestrel Grenadiers]] and [[1st Kathil Uhlans]] landed on the world in April, but a series of poor drops left the [[AFFS]] forces scattered across the Tri-City Region. After 28 hours of hard fighting, the AFFS forces had claimed all their objectives, but a regiment of militia armor and a population loyal to the [[Draconis Combine]] resisted the invasion. To make matters worse, Matar's citizens hunted the world's plentiful wildlife as a pastime so they were well armed.<ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', pp. 44-45</ref>

In late September [[3039]] the [[11th Ghost]] and [[12th Ghost]] regiments arrived. Close combat in the Tri-Cities resulted in a great deal of collateral damage, resulting in the population taking up arms against the AFFS forces. After two more months of hard fighting, the Tri-Cities was effectively destroyed and the [[DCMS]] troops had successfully driven the AFFS off Matar.<ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', pp. 93-94</ref>
