However, the Galaxy was recalled in late [[3076]], when former [[KungsArmé]] military units refused to stand down to undergo [[Trial of Position|Trials of Position]]. The First Tyr was sent to [[Trondheim (FRR)|Trondheim]] where they met with members of one rebellious unit, the [[2nd Freemen (Clan Ghost Bear)|Second Freemen]]. Talks between the two sides turned ugly as they exchanged insults and physical throw downs, and negotiations broke down when the First Tyr moved to disarm the rebellious unit. This led to fighting in the streets of the planet's capital city of Misby Flats. Most of the battle was concentrated in the industrial areas of the city, where the fighting was brutal, but some of the fighting spilled over into the residential areas and resulted in loss of civilian life. Ultimately only six of the Freemen MechWarriors survived the First Tyr's onslaught against them.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', pp. 91–92: Rasalhague Rebellion - 1st Tyr Assault takes down one of its own forces</ref>

===Blackout and the Dark Age===
During the [[Second Combine-Dominion War]] in [[3100]] the First Tyr Assault Cluster was stationed on Trondheim with several other Ghost Bear units when the [[11th Ghost]] and [[5th Sword of Light]] regiments arrived, supported by the ''[[Draconis Rift (Individual Kyushu-class WarShip)|Draconis Rift]]''. The First Tyr attempted to support the [[2nd Rasalhague Bears (Rasalhague Dominion)|Second Rasalhague Bears]] when they fought the Eleventh Ghost, but was unable to reach the Bears before they were destroyed. After this the First Tyr loaded into DropShips and began playing hide-and-seek, hiding from the Fifth Sword of Light and the ''Draconis Rift'' by moving between Trondheim and its four moons. They were able to do so long enough for reinforcements to arrive.<ref>''Historical: Wars of the Republic Era'', pp. 33, 35</ref>

The First Tyr saw significant deployment during the chaotic early years of the Dark Age, where it and its Galaxy were deployed to [[Prefecture I]] in the former [[Republic of the Sphere]] in [[3135]]. The unit was first used to secure several worlds in the Prefecture as the Republic's cohesion collapsed due to various invasions and rebellions. However, after [[Clan Wolf|Clan Wolf's]] abandonment of its [[Occupation Zone]], the Cluster and its entire parent Galaxy were redeployed to claim former Wolf worlds for the Dominion. As [[Clan Hell's Horses]] were closer and had moved more swiftly, the Rasalhague Galaxy Clusters were only able to take the worlds bordering the Dominion. The First Tyr during this action flitted from world to world, cutting off Horses probes.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 163: Rasalhague Dominion/Rasalhague Galaxy - 1st Tyr's noted actions during the Dark Age leading to 3145</ref>

The First Tyr was present on [[Memmingen]] in or after [[3146]] when the planet was raided by the Horses, and succeeded in repelling the raiders.<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 19'', p. 4: "Star Captain Theron"</ref>
