As part of the 11th Arcturan's growing Task Force of military units, General Esteban moved the unit to [[York]] to set her "Prince Trap".  There with the recent acquired Carlisla APM, the two militia units became bait for Victor Steiner-Davion's task force whom arrived in early [[3065]]. Taking the roll of garrison force stationed outside area known as the Salibury Flats, the unit drew attention of [[6th Crucis Lancers]]. Short of 15 kilometers of the Alarion Milita and its sister unit, 11th Arcturan Guards landed in daring orbital drop behind the 6th Crucis Lancers.

Finding themselves in trap, the Crucis Lancers fled the APMs, moving west of York's capital city.  The Alarion and Carlisle regiments being faster than the heavily laden 6th Crucis, allowed the unit damage unit as it withdrew to their Landing Zone and fled the planet.<ref>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'' page 102-103 Wave 3 - York - Alarion APM with Carlisle APM lure and give chance to the 6th Crucis Lancers until they flee the plant.</ref>
