After the end of the Capellan-St. Ives War, tensions between Borodin's Vindicators and the [[Blackwind Lancers]] boiled over. The Vindicators hated the fact that ''Mandrinn'' [[Tormano Liao]] forced them to play second fiddle to the Lancers. After a training accident involving a Lancer 'Mech (later determined to be sabotage), the Vindicators engaged in outright combat with their rival unit. Despite inferior numbers, the Lancers held out, and after several hours the Vindicators broke and ran. The Vindicators' 4th battalion, among other elements of the Vindicators, were left behind and surrendered to the Lancers.  The surviving Vindicators who reached their DropShips lifted off, rendezvoused with an unidentified JumpShip and disappeared.  <ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 30 </ref>
 
 
By [[3067]], rumors placed the Vindicators on Kittery, rebuilding with the support of Duke [[George Hasek]] who was feeding the Vindicators supplies and St. Ives refugees as recruits.  <ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 123 "Free Capella?"</ref>
