History

Gamma Galaxy was decommissioned by Khan Sullivan Koga in order to reinforce Epsilon Galaxy in the mid-3050s. Gamma had lost much of its strength in battles against Clan Snow Raven in the period prior to Operation Revival.[1]

In 3070 Khan Silas Kufahl recommissioned Gamma Galaxy from "harvested" warriors to defend the expanding Coyote territory in the Clan Space. The Galaxy was ordered to defend the new enclaves on Londerholm and Hellgate. In late November, in a deal with Clan Hell's Horses the Galaxy along with Delta began transferring troops to Tiber and Krin.[2]

In 3072 the 27th Strike Cluster and the 44th Battle Cluster struck out at the Steel Vipers' Beta Galaxy positions on Londerholm, destroying the 195th Striker Cluster in the early stages of the fighting. As the battle progressed the Vipers' Gamma Galaxy caught the Coyote force in a flank attack. The Assault Clusters rolled over the Coyotes destroying them. Only a few survived to be taken bondsmen.[3]

Around the same time as the Londerholm attack the Seventh and Eighth Reserve Battle Clusters ambushed the Alpha Newt Cluster of Clan Steel Viper outside of Tolson on Foster, decimating them. However, both Clusters were caught in a counterattack by the Vipers' Alpha Galaxy and were themselves destroyed.[3]
