In March 3069 the mercenary unit known as the [[Federated Freemen]] were attempting to rebuild on Spica following heavy damage taken during SOVEREIGN JUSTICE when the Capellan [[1st Janissary Brigade|First Janissary Brigade]] assaulted Spica. [[Colonel]] [[Xavier Pelt]] of the Freemen tried several feints to disrupt the Janissary Brigade, to no avail; with complete aerial supremacy, the Janissaries continually ground the Freemen down while launching devastating low-level attacks with [[VTOL]]s and [[Mechbuster]]s. Colonel Pelt was killed on the 30th of April, at which point the surviving elements of the Freemen - some two mixed [[company|companies]] of [[combat vehicle]]s and [[BattleMech]]s - negotiated a peaceful withdrawal, leaving hundreds of tons of 'Mech salvage behind.<ref name="MSUp52">''Mercenaries Supplemental Update'', p. 52, "Federated Freemen"</ref>
