<u>Matamoras</u><br>
[[Galaxy Commander]] [[Hang Mehta]] with Alpha Command Nova accompanied the [[19th Striker (Clan Smoke Jaguar)|Nineteenth Striker Cluster]] during the assault on [[Matamoras]] in late July 3059.<ref>''Shadows of War'', p. 51</ref> They hit the planets defenders, the [[Ryuken-yon]], the [[1st Free Worlds Guards|First Free Worlds Guards]] and the [[2nd Night Stalkers|Second Night Stalkers]], fast and hard. It was only due to civilian resistance groups that the planet did not fall as they tied up Jaguar warriors and frustrated their offensive efforts. This forced the Nineteenth to group together for protection and gave the respite needed for the Ryuken-yon to perform a nighttime combat drop on their positions, supported by a counterattack by the other Inner Sphere forces that broke the back of the Nineteenth and force the Clan warriors from the planet by August 13th.<ref>''The Dragon Roars'', p. 36</ref>

It was only due to civilian resistance groups that the planet did not fall as they tied up Jaguar warriors and frustrated their offensive efforts. This forced the Nineteenth to group together for protection and gave the respite needed for the Ryuken-yon to preform a night time combat drop on their positions, supported by a counter attack by the other Inner Sphere forces that broke the back of the Nineteenth and force the Clan warriors from the planet by August 13th.<ref>''The Dragon Roars'', p. 36</ref>

<u>Pesht</u><br>
The remaining elements of the Keshik led the [[3rd Assault (Clan Smoke Jaguar)|3rd Assault Cluster]] during the attack on [[Pesht]]. The Watch had identified the defenders as the [[7th Sword of Light|Seventh Sword of Light]], the [[Ryuken-san]] and the [[1st Kell Hounds|First Kell Hound Regiment]]. Unfortunately when the Keshik landed they cut off the Third Assault Cluster by a surprise attack from [[Clan Wolf (in Exile)|Clan Wolf (in Exile)'s]] [[2nd Wolf Legion (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|2nd Wolf Legion]]. The Wolf assault smashed into the Keshik's flank and annihilated it.<ref>''The Dragon Roars'', p. 36</ref> The Wolves allege they left none alive.<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 159</ref>
