History

Xi Galaxy is the location of the Ghost Bear's most incompetent commanders. When formed, the commander was abusive and lacked any tactical skill. He was replaced by a subordinate, but that warrior was also incompetent. The stream of incompetence continued throughout the unit's history until Galaxy Commander Bourjon was assigned. The Khan hopes that Bourjon will be able to turn the unit around.[1]

First Draconis Combine/Ghost Bear War

During the First Draconis Combine / Ghost Bear War Xi Galaxy launched a single offensive campaign, deploying the Fifth Bear Regulars to capture the Draconis Combine world of Richmond. The Fifth successfully captured the planet, only to have a counter-offensive capture their own homeworld, Constance. This forced Xi Galaxy to recapture Constance, only to lose Richmond while doing so.[2]

Officers

As of 3061 the commanding officer was Galaxy Commander Bradley Bourjon[1] who continued to command the Galaxy until at least as late as 3067.[3]

Tactics

With such poor leadership, it is not surprising that Xi Galaxy's warriors typically perform frontal assaults against an enemy position. Though effective, this typically causes heavy losses for the Galaxy as well.[1]

Composition

3067

  • Fifth Bear Regulars[3]
