With Clan Wolf's economic growth, the Wolves merchants challenged Widowmaker's Merchants for year worth of bauxite ore used to make ferro-alluminium from its mines on Dadga. Khan Jorgensson and his fellow saKhan attempted to block the trial from taking place, which Wolves merchants called on its warrior touman fight formal Trial of Possession. Despite the Widowmaker's loss, its' merchants were awed by respect Wolves' merchants were given by its military and the freedoms they'd received.

Jorgensson's Widowmakers were known to be at times brutal with their own civilian population, Khan Jorgensson had merchants killed. The brutality exhibited by Jorgensson's clan touman shocked greater community of the Clans. Khan Jorgensson would be say it was matter of internal affairs, pointed finger at Wolf Khan Jerome Winson as cause of Widowmaker's uprising.

Jorgenson dueled the Wolf Khan in his BattleMech, where he did not fair well against the Winson. As all look lost for him, a Widowmaker star of 'Mechs broke the Circle of Equals to save him being slayed by Khan Winson.
