When Clan Jade Falcon attacked [[Steelton]] in April [[3050]], the planet's commander falsely claimed to possess a much larger force during the ''batchall''.

Their Colonel was killed and only a battalion escaped the fighting.<ref name=JF37>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 37</ref>

The survivors made it off planet and escaped to [[Wotan]] to join the remnant of their sister unit, the [[2nd Regiment (12th Star Guards)|Second Regiment]]. The Falcons hit the planet in June 3050 and the Guards attempted to fight them off alongside the Wotan TMM. Colonel Pierce-Marinetti of the Second coordinated a series of small unit actions until he was killed in an airstrike, after which the defenders were easily defeated.<ref name=JF39>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 39</ref>
