At the end of [[3025]], agents of Ibex Rampant under [[Captain]] [[Alistair Haust]] covertly salvaged the [[Long Tom Artillery Piece]] from the crashed [[Taurian Concordat]] ''[[Fortress]]''-class [[DropShip]] ''[[Iberia]]'', intending to use it to shell the Arano Palace. [[Walther Suydam]], a former Directorate [[MechWarrior]], had been recruited by Haust to assist with this. Instead, he rigged the Long Tom to explode, killing several conspirators and nearly killing himself.<ref name=Almost>''Almost Sounds Like the Guns Themselves''</ref>
 
  
 
Ibex Rampant had reportedly been all but eradicated during [[Operation RESTORED HOPE]];<ref name=ORH/> [[Farida Lamb]] had personally killed their leader on [[Gaucin]] by punching through his ''[[Awesome]]''&#39;s cockpit with her ''[[BattleMaster]]''&#39;s fist at some point in or prior to 3026 in what was considered a decisive end for Operation RESTORED HOPE.<ref name=HA:TACp48/>

On 8 October [[3026]], [[Rampart Company]] (the restored [[Aurigan Coalition]]'s black ops company) received intel from Lord [[Alexander Madeira]] regarding [[Federated Suns]] forces that were operating illegally in the [[Capellan Confederation]] world of [[Hurik]], arming local rebel groups with advanced weaponry in an effort to foment internal conflict and destabilize the region. Rampart Company assumed the identity of the ''Wolves of Joppa'' and send two [[lance]]s to Hurik aboard an unmarked [[DropShip]]. Once there, they located the rebel camp and managed to draw them out enough for the rebels to be destroyed by Capellan forces. As it turned out, the rebels had contained elements of Ibex Rampant.<ref name=HA:TACp36>''House Arano (The Aurigan Coalition)'', pp. 36, "OPERATION WOLFHOUND"</ref>
