In August [[3029]] the Twenty-second intercepted a communications message from [[Colonel]] [[Quentin Moore]], commander of Mobile Fire, requesting assistance from the Bad Dream due to more than half of his command being afflicted with [[Birnheart's Fever]], a debilitating illness common to Gunzburg. ''[[Tai-sho (rank)|Tai-sho]]'' [[Tassen Sorenson]], the commanding officer of the Regulars, felt that the time was right for a direct attack on the weakened mercenary command, as the communications intercept showed the Bad Dream to be three hours or more away from being able to offer assistance.<ref name="FSWMAv2p63"/>

Moving to the coordinates given by Moore, the Twenty-second found the location to be a deserted camp with nothing more than a half-dozen [['Mech]]s present and no sign of enemy troops. As Sorenson's troops moved into the open, heat traces in the swamp revealed the presence of Mobile Fire forces as the concealed mercenary BattleMechs began emerging from the swamp to attack the Regulars at close range. Even as Moore's forces were revealing themselves the Bad Dream began to attack the Regulars from behind, and Sorenson realized that he and his troops had been deceived. Sorenson ordered the Twenty-second to surrender rather than be destroyed - an embarrassing defeat for the Combine - before committing suicide, leaving Gunzburg in Lyran hands.<ref name="FSWMAv2p63"/>
