Battle of Tukayyid[edit]

On Tukayyid Vau Galaxy was used to reinforce Robyn's Crossing after the Com Guards sent the reserves of their Third and Eleventh Armies, six divisions, to contest the Falcon's hold on the crossing.[12]

Post-REVIVAL[edit]

In 3056 Vau was ordered to attack Morges in retaliation for Federated Commonwealth raids into the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone. They landed and after four days of pursuing the garrison, pinned the Inner Sphere unit down in a river valley. The Peregrines quickly eliminated the garrison, but the time it took to find them allowed other Inner Sphere reinforcements to arrive. Wolf's Dragoons, supported by elements of the 20th Arcturan Guards and 4th Skye Rangers, landed on the world and fought Peregrine Galaxy. The fighting lasted for two days, and damaged nearly seventy-five percent of the Vau Galaxy forces.[13]

Refusal War[edit]

At the start of the Refusal War they were stationed on Quarell and preparing for an invasion of the Free Rasalhague Republic.[14] They were later dispatched into the Lyran Alliance to find and fight the Clan Wolf forces who were under Khan Phelan Ward's command.[15] They were dispatched to Morges,[16] where they faced elements of Clan Wolf and the Kell Hounds.[17] Vau Galaxy was destroyed in the Refusal War.[18]

Dark Age[edit]

Parts of Vau Galaxy invaded Arcturus in 3142. They faced the 15th Arcturan Guards. After two days of fighting, seven companies of the Fifteenth were destroyed and the survivors withdrew.[19]

Vau Galaxy faced the Fire Horse Galaxy and Malvina Hazen on Antares and lost. Taking this lesson to heart they reconfigured themselves to use lighter-weight Hussar and Jaeger Clusters. The Peregrine Galaxy was the lead unit when Clan Jade Falcon connected the Falcon's Reach to the Occupation Zone. After facing Clan Wolf-in-Exile forces on several worlds, they were able to stabilize the front lines. Vau Galaxy then began a series of long range raids, including hitting Chukchi III.[20]
