The Velites faced off against the [[7th Hector Cavaliers (Clan Hell's Horses)|Seventh Hector Cavaliers]]. The Cavaliers were initially pinned down by the Velites in a canyon of the Firth mountain range, until a Binary of ''[[Snow Fox|Snow Foxes]]'' striking at the Falcon rear created the impression of a larger force at their back. The resultant confusion allowed the Cavaliers to turn the Falcon flank and win the Trial.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3060'', p. 134</ref>+ As of [[3059]] the Commanding Officer was [[Star Colonel]] Dien. − ===The Wars of Reaving=== + ==Tactics== − In February [[3069]] the Second launched a Trial to gain possession of the petroleum farm and silver mines near Contock on [[Marshall]] from [[Clan Steel Viper]]. A flank attack by the [[5th Rattle (Clan Steel Viper)|Fifth Rattle]] caught the Second totally by surprise and inflicted heavy casualties, allowing the Vipers to win the Trial. <ref name=WoR41>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 41</ref> − Later that year, the Velites issued a ''batchall'' for the Viper Holdings on Marshall, this time bidding their entire force. Galaxy Commander Zalman bid the [[Viper Fusiliers (Clan Steel Viper)|Viper Fusiliers]] in response. The Fusiliers were outnumbered and the battle was fierce. When the Fusiliers' Star Colonel [[Allen Dumont]] killed Star Colonel [[Dien]] of the Second Velites in single combat, the Falcons broke their bid and called in artillery strikes that decimated the Fusiliers, leaving only a mixed Trinary of 'Mechs and Elementals to claim ''hegira'' and retreat from the planet.<ref name=WoR41/> − In November 3069 The Vipers Beta Galaxy returned to Marshall.
