Its component Clusters had taken heavy casualties and the only surviving cluster that was relatively intact was the 4th Striker. It was temporarily assigned to [[Clan Jade Wolf]]'s Tau Galaxy for all of nineteen days, until the Wolf Clan was resurrected.<ref name=CWOK32>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 32</ref><ref name="FM:CCp145"/><ref name=F&W468>''The Falcon and the Wolf'', pp. 46–48</ref> Delta Galaxy was re-formed by reassigning units that had belonged to [[Sigma Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Sigma Galaxy]] prior to the start of the Refusal War.

On [[New Home]] they faced off against an [[SDS]] that surrounded the planet, and they fought alongside forces from [[Clan Jade Falcon]] and [[Clan Ghost Bear]] as well. With so many Clan forces on the world, it appeared that they allowed their competitive nature to work against them. The assault on New Earth was a failure, with all Clan forces taking serious losses. Fortunately the assault destroyed at least one [[Protectorate Militia]] division and located a missing [[Shadow Division]].<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 66</ref><ref>''Total Chaos'', p. 229</ref> Delta Galaxy relocated to [[Rigel Kentarus]], where they staged several [[Trial of Possession|Trials of Possession]] against the Ghost Bears for supplies taken during the offensive. They then left Rigel Kentarus to rebuild.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 67</ref> They assaulted [[Skye]] alongside [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]]'s Beta Galaxy and Stone's Lament.<ref>''Total Chaos'', p. 54</ref> Delta Galaxy was also involved with the Coalition assault on [[Hesperus II]] in [[3074]]. They surrounded the [[40th Shadow Division]] in Maria's Elegy, holding the Blakists in place until the [[1st Skye Jaegers]] could break the stalemate.<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus II'', p. 8</ref> They fought side by side with [[Stone's Lament]].<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus II'', p. 9</ref> In [[3076]] they assaulted [[Galatea]].<ref>''Total Chaos'', p. 113</ref> During the assault on [[Terra]], Elementals from Delta Galaxy were assigned to take Luna with the assistance of DEST troops, the [[Star Seeds]] mercenary unit, and [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Alpha Galaxy]] of [[Clan Jade Falcon]].<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 96</ref> They did so, capturing the [[TerraSec]] facility on Luna while suffering nearly 60% casualties.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 104: "Bloody Moon Rising"</ref><ref>''Total Chaos'', pp. 180, 184, 197</ref> ===Post-Jihad=== Delta Galaxy was given to the newly formed [[Republic of the Sphere]] to help build the Republic's Armed Forces.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 167</ref><ref name=eddap18>''Era Digest: Dark Age'', p. 18</ref> Following the Republic's standard practices, the individual warriors of Delta's Clusters were broken up and used to fill gaps in other units. This both diluted their ties to Clan Wolf and forced the new Republic soldiers to form new bonds.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 166</ref> Delta Galaxy would remain off the roster of Clan Wolf until the [[Blackout]].<ref name=fm3145p159>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 159</ref> Several of Delta's traditions would be passed down to the [[Steel Wolves]] splinter faction of the Republic.<ref name=er3145p70/><ref name=eddap18/> ===Dark Age=== Delta Galaxy was re-formed shortly after the Blackout, in [[3134]].<ref name=er3145p70>''Era Report: 3145'', p. 70</ref> They were the third Galaxy sent to raid [[The Republic of the Sphere]] by Clan Wolf. They focused mostly on Prefecture IX. However as the third Galaxy, they mostly acted as a backup force for Alpha and Beta Galaxies. Though it was largely filled with conventional vehicles at its formation, by 3145 it was equipped with BattleMechs.<ref name=fm3145p159/> During [[Operation HAMMERFALL]] Delta was used to set up new communities in the systems that would become the [[Wolf Empire]].<ref name=er3145p70/> In 3140 they faced elements of the [[11th Lyran Regulars]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Lyran Commonwealth'', p. 12</ref> In 3145 elements of Delta faced the [[11th Lyran Guards]] on [[Smolnik]].
