At the start of 3050, the unit was based on Meacham. [2]

During the Clan war it successfully raided the Clan Jade Falcon world of La Grave in 3053.[1]

The fighting on Dalkeith smashed the Thirteenth, and it was merged with the Fifth Alliance Guards for the rest of the civil war. [3]

As of 1st August 3067, the Thirteenth was on Dalkeith and down to 15% strength.[3]

The Thirteenth was dramatically under strength, and Word of Blake forces totally destroyed the unit in the Jihad.[4]
