History
By 3026 Kincaid was the owner of minor Lyran ammunition manufacturer and arms dealer Kincaid Defiance Industries.
On 5 March 3028 an assault lance of the DSPF (consisting of an Atlas, Zeus, Flashman and Griffin, incidentally all 'Mech designs built or maintained on Hesperus II) was deployed to the remote Kincaid Defiance Industries complex together with a LIC molehunter team investigating apparent organized theft of Double Heat Sinks. Just before the investigation could be concluded, McCarron's Armored Cavalry staged a raid against the facility on 21 April; the DSPF lance fought among the defenders.
The official story was that it had been a grudge raid, after CEO Simon Kincaid had taken money from the mercenary unit but failed to deliver the unspecified goods (an implicitly illegal deal, given that McCarron's Armored Cavalry was closely associated with House Liao who were enemies of the Lyrans' close allies, the Federated Suns). It is unclear if House Steiner ever learned that in truth, it was an extraction raid for Simon Kincaid who had been collaborating with House Liao and jumped ship as he was about to be found out. Kincaid had actively sabotaged the defenses and personally killed LIC agent Schröder by destroying the DSPF Zeus Schröder was piloting during the fight. The specific fate of the other DSPF 'Mechs was not mentioned, but the raid was considered a success, implying they were destroyed or at least defeated.[1]
