By 3085, the Alcyone CMM was suffering from dramatic logistical problems. The unit experienced everything from ammunition shortages to basic training failures. One company of [[Vedettes]], for example, used manual firing controls that none of the unit's members could operate. The unit also had no aerospace support, forcing the unit to use conventional aircraft to get some sort of air cover.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 64</ref> They were based on [[Alcyone]] in 3085.<ref name=FM3085p69/>

In 3145 the Alcyone CMM was deployed to [[Redfield]] as a defense against the [[Capellan Confederation]]'s advance. Though by this time they had solved the logistical problems that had hampered them shortly after the Jihad their rapid redeployment left them no time to create an adequate supply chain to Redfield. This resulted in another logistical problem that had affected them in 3085.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 81</ref>
