After the loss of [[Tokasha]] to [[Clan Ghost Bear]], Theta Galaxy was formed to serve as a training unit to prepare troops for front-line service. In this task it functions in a manner similar to the [[Sun Zhang Academy Cadre]]. Experienced [[Star Commander]]s were transferred into this Galaxy and paired with new ''[[sibko]]'' graduates as advanced field instructors. Warriors who barely passed their Trial of Position were assigned to the 53rd BattleMech Cluster. They were then tested in a series of mock engagements, mostly defensive, and as their skills improved they would Trial to enter the 49th BattleMech Cluster. After serving in that unit, they would Trial again to move to the 42nd BattleMech Cluster. Once part of the 42nd, they could participate in Trials to enter front-line service. The process worked very well, allowing the Horses to quickly rebuild their commands.<ref name=FM:CCp72/>

In [[3071]] Theta moved into the [[Periphery]]. Following the front line Galaxies, Theta's troops were used to secure undefended worlds. Late in 3071, Theta's warriors were sent to secure several Periphery planets, including [[Botany Bay]], [[Here]], [[Lackhove]], [[Last Chance]], and [[Götterdämmerung (system)|Götterdämmerung]]. Theta was successful, and eventually captured the [[Dark Nebula]] orbital facility with [[Clan Jade Falcon]]'s [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Delta Galaxy]].<ref name=frc12>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 12</ref>

After moving to the [[Inner Sphere]] Theta assaulted [[Liezen]] in the [[Clan Wolf]] Occupation Zone. There the entire unit faced the Wolves' [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Beta Galaxy]]. Theta's troops thought they could easily defeat the outnumbered Wolves and their bidding cut their attack forces down to dangerously low levels. When Theta landed, Beta Galaxy was able to outmaneuver the slow tanks and infantry used by Theta. Beta's actions forced Theta to break their bid and call down the entire Galaxy. Fortunately for Theta, Beta Galaxy was forced to ask for ''hegira'' to withdraw and deal with a problem on Kirchbach. This left Theta technically victorious, but at the cost of nearly half their forces.
