In early 3024, Bowen Kincaid contracted out the Waco Rangers' reserve battalion under the command of C.H.G. Keller on a short-term basis while he searched for his family's famed Archer, Agincourt, which he wanted to destroy before it could be found by Jake Mason and his Cavaliers mercenary unit, to whom his father had bequeathed it to after he died.[30]

Major Keller's forces were late arriving at a decommissioned base on Bernardo where the Agincourt was once stored, encountering strong resistance from the Cavaliers and forced to withdraw. It was actually hidden in a city on Berenson the Cavaliers were able to find the 'Mech, killing Bowen Kincaid in the process. With his death, the Waco Rangers withdrew from the field.[30]

Jihad[edit]

During the Jihad, the Tenth Marik Militia lifted off, leaving Bernardo defenseless. In or around 3079, the planet's militia units came to an agreement with Kallon Industries to provide support and defense for the factories in exchange for discounted equipment.[1] With the Free Worlds League's dissolution, the Republic of the Sphere sent out several diplomatic teams to discuss terms for Bernardo merging into the Republic.[31]
