History
Post Invasion
In June 3052, the Viper Fusiliers and the 126th Striker Cluster invaded Goat Path. This was part of a larger operation which also involved elements of Alpha Galaxy attacking Blackjack simultaneously. The operation was believed to have been ordered in retaliation for Jade Falcon raids on Steel Viper merchant traffic.
On Goat Path, the Fusiliers and Strikers defeated the Second Falcon Jaegers and Fifth Battle Clusters.
In April 3055, the Fusiliers attacked Bensinger. An off-target landing meant that the Fusiliers landed within weapons range of the defending Jade Falcon 305th Assault Cluster. This resulted in almost twenty-five percent fatalities among the Fusiliers in the first few minutes of battle.
The Steel Viper Cluster rallied and after this initial setback and exploited a gap in their opponents' lines to get in so close that the 305th had to check their fire for fear of hitting their comrades.
In 3060, the Fusiliers were stationed on Goat Path when it was raided by Warrior House Ijori of the Capellan Confederation. The battle caused serious damage to both forces, but was inconclusive.
