In a show of strength after the resurgence of Clan Wolf; Vlad ordered Katya Kerensky to have the Galaxy rendered battleworthy. Katya passed a single [[Cluster]] over to the other front-line Galaxies that were rebuilding, transferred out the worst of the burnouts and ''[[solahma]]'' and forged the remaining forces into a new, rebuilt Delta Galaxy.<ref name=CWOK32/><ref name="FM:CCp145">''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 145: "Delta Galaxy: The Snarling Wolves"</ref>

Sigma Galaxy was resurrected after the invasion of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] in the 3140s and the subsequent founding of the [[Wolf Empire]]. Sigma Galaxy was the second of two Galaxies to be raised predominantly from recruiting amongst the Lyran population. Stationed on the border with the [[Free Worlds League]] and the Lyran Commonwealth, Sigma found itself in the unenviable position of not only fighting against their ages-old enemy but also against their former countrymen from the [[Bolan Province]].<ref name="FM:3145p161">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 161: "Sigma Galaxy"</ref>

Given Sigma's position on the anti-spinward border of the Wolf Empire it found itself struggling to obtain new equipment, including [[battle armor]]; as a consequence, as late as [[3145]] Sigma was still largely reliant on tanks to do the heavy fighting, and Sigma had little choice but to rely on conventional infantry forces, although the infantry were at least equipped with improved small arms thanks to [[Clan]] technology. Sigma's loyalty to the Wolf Empire was driven largely by fear of invasion from the Free Worlds League.<ref name="FM:3145p161"/>
