History

Operation Revival

Beta Galaxy Units fought on the following worlds during the invasion of the Inner Sphere:

The Periphery

Wave One

Wave Two

Wave Three

Wave Four

Wave Five

Tukayyid

Led by saKhan Sarah Weaver, Beta was assigned the secondary target city of Port Racice. Staging a combat drop into the marshes of the Racice River Delta leading to the city, the divisions of the Com Guards veteran 5th Army used the advantages offered by the terrain and well-placed artillery fire to herd Beta Galaxy deeper into the treacherous marshes. Hit-and-run attacks by the 367th, 401st, and 207th Divisions drove the Jaguars further and further into the delta, slowing Beta's pace and giving the dug-in Com Guard units amply ambush opportunities while at the same time negating the Clans advantages of weapons range and superior heat sink technology. Luring the Jaguars deeper and deeper into the marshes, the 207th Division eventually succeeded in surrounding Beta Galaxy's Command Star, killing sKhan Weaver.

With death of Weaver shortly after Khan Lincoln Osis's apparent demise during Alpha Galaxy's push to the primary target city of Dinju Heights, when Precentor Martial Anastasius Focht reinforced the Fifth Army with divisions from the Com Guards Second Army, ilKhan Ulric Kerensky was forced to terminate the Jaguar campaign. While Alpha was enraged by what they felt was a Wolf Clan snub to their sacrifices and launched ultimately fruitless suicide attacks, the demoralized Beta Galaxy dutifully obeyed and withdrew to their DropShips.
