History[edit]
In 3067, the Sixty-first was stationed on Strato Domingo.[1]
Dark Age[edit]
At the beginning of the Dark Age, the Sixty-first and the other elements of Iota Galaxy were in a sad state; despite having four component Clusters, the total strength of all four was little more than a Cluster, spread across the Hell's Horses Periphery border. Iota was at the tail end of the Hell's Horses supply chain, with no prospect of rebuilding quickly.[2]
