Amalthia Kincaid was tall and gaunt, and sickly during her entire career. Stricken with [[Pingree Fever]] in her twenties, Kincaid was described as an "armchair MechWarrior," though a brilliant strategist who conducted war as humanely as possible.

Kincaid and her senior advisor General [[Elias Priest]] formed the first Striker Regiments in preparation for renewed hostilities with the [[Taurian Concordat]].<ref name=SL49>''The Star League'', p. 49: "Desperate Measures"</ref> Striker regiments proved so successful that they were instituted by the entire SLDF for long missions behind enemy lines.

Ultimately, Kincaid's illness led indirectly to her death.  [[Taurian Defense Force|Taurian]] commandos, operating under [[Case BLACK]] and armed with a new particle-beam sniper weapon, were able to engage and eliminate targets at extreme range, but the weapon was only effective against sickly individuals.  On the morning of 3 June [[2583]], Kincaid was assassinated during a review of the [[Fifty-sixth Ariana Lancers]].  Due to lack of command structure and fear of the new Taurian "miracle weapon," the assassination of General Kincaid delayed the invasion of the [[Hyades Cluster]] for more than a year.<ref name=TPs32>''The Periphery'', p. 32</ref>
