Refusal War
After the Refusal War, Delta Galaxy was resurrected by re-naming Sigma Galaxy and using it as a foundation.
Jihad
During the Jihad Delta Galaxy was assigned to the Lyran Commonwealth thrust of Operation SCOUR. 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.[1][2] Delta Galaxy relocated to Rigel Kentarus, where they staged several Trials of Possession against the Ghost Bears for supplies taken during the offensive. They then left Rigel Kentarus to rebuild.[3]
They assaulted Skye alongside Clan Wolf-in-Exile's Beta Galaxy and Stone's Lament.[4] 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 Jagers could break the stalemate.[5] They fought side by side with Stone's Lament.[6] In 3076 they assaulted Galatea.[7]
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 of Clan Jade Falcon.[8] They did so, capturing the TerraSec facility on Luna while suffering nearly 60% casualties.[9][10]
Post Jihad
Delta Galaxy was given to the newly formed Republic of the Sphere to help build the Republic's Armed Forces.[11][12] 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.[13] Delta Galaxy would remain off the roster of Clan Wolf until the Blackout.[14] Several of Delta's traditions would be passed down to the Steel Wolves splinter faction of the Republic.[15][12]
Dark Age
Delta Galaxy was reformed shortly after the Blackout, in 3134.[15] 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.[14] During Operation HAMMERFALL Delta was used to set up new communities in the systems that would become the Wolf Empire.[15]
In 3140 they faced elements of the 11th Lyran Regulars.[16] In 3145 elements of Delta faced the 11th Lyran Guards on Smolnik. This encounter resulted in extreme damage to the planet as the Lyran Guards used Firestarters to ignite a blaze that quickly went out of control.[17]
Officers
Loremaster Conal Ward held command of Delta during Operation Revival up until 3052, two weeks after the Battle of Tukayyid, when he was relieved of command by ilKhan Ulric Kerensky.[18]
Khan Natasha Kerensky would immediately select a staunch Warden to become the next commander of Delta Galaxy, choosing John Ward over expectant Crusader ristar Marcos Radick, who desired command of his mentor's old Galaxy.[18]
As of 3059 the commanding officer was Galaxy Commander Katya Kerensky. She was still in command in 3067.[19]
During the Jihad Delta was led by Dirk Radick. He was later made a Republic Knight of the Sphere.[20]
In 3145 the commanding officer is Galaxy Commander Billie Sender. His aide is Star Colonel Tyrone.[21]

Jihad
During the Jihad Delta Galaxy receives a +2 Initiative bonus when fighting the Word of Blake. They dislike most Inner Sphere units they fight alongside unless Devlin Stone is in command.
