==History==
Late [[3082]] saw the [[Third Proserpina Hussars]] attack [[Weisau]] in the first reprisal assaults for the earlier Raven campaign in the [[Galedon]] District. Delta Galaxy's [[6th Raven Regulars (Clan Snow Raven)|Sixth Raven Regulars]] and Gamma's [[12th Raven Garrison (Clan Snow Raven)|Twelfth Raven Garrison]] successfully repulsed the Kuritan attack but at a high price to the Twelfth.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 42</ref> The [[Second Dieron Regulars]] hit Weisau again [[3083]] and at least one source claims that this battle cost the Raven ''[[touman]]'' "the loss of a Cluster."<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 114</ref>

As of [[3061]] the Commanding Officer was [[Galaxy Commander]] Tristen [[Crow (Bloodname)|Crow]].<ref name=FMWC130/>
  
Putting together a clear picture of the actions and outcomes during [[3083]] is difficult as a result of contradictory reporting from both sides. One regiment of the [[Galedon Regulars]] assaulted [[Valentina]] and claimed to have destroyed the Twelfth Raven Garrison Cluster.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 40</ref> However, Raven reports claim that the [[3rd Raven Auxiliaries (Clan Snow Raven)|Third Raven Auxiliaries]] used superior aerospace forces to defeat the invaders on Valentina.<ref name=FM3085p122>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 122</ref> Both sides agree that a second Regulars regiment attacked the [[100th Raven Battle (Clan Snow Raven)|100th Raven Battle Cluster]] on [[Budingen]] and subsequently withdrew, but they disagree on which Kuritan regiment attacked and the effectiveness of the assault. Following the Kuritans' withdrawal from Budingen, Gamma Galaxy was pulled back to the Alliance core worlds for repair and refit.<ref name=FM3085p122 />

==Tactics==
  
By [[3110]], Gamma Galaxy had become the heaviest user of [[ProtoMech]]s in the Snow Raven ''[[touman]]'', and was the first unit to receive deliveries of the new ''[[Hippogriff]]'' ProtoMech. The Third Raven Auxiliaries were the first subunit of Gamma Galaxy to test the ''Hippogriff'' in combat when they clashed with a reconnaissance force from the [[ManMangler]] [[mercenary]] unit on [[Milligan's World]]. A contingent from the ManManglers – apparently in the employ of the [[Draconis Combine]] – was intercepted by a [[Binary]] from the Auxiliaries. The Auxiliaries force consisted of a mixture of [[Chrysaor|''Chrysaor'' 2]]s, ''Hippogriffs'' and ''[[Roc]]s'', and intercepted the mercenaries on the Doone Plains, where the Raven ProtoMechs quickly outjumped the mercenary [[Wheeled APC|APC]]s and light [['Mech]]s, who retreated after losing two 'Mechs and most of their infantry.<ref name="TRO:3145Mp46">''Technical Readout: 3145 Mercenaries'', p. 46: "''Hippogriff'' ProtoMech"</ref>
 
  
In [[3144]], Gamma Galaxy sent two Clusters to take [[Inner End]]. After moving all noncombatants to Inner End's cities, the Ravens were able to quickly crush the resistance movement started by the [[Federated Suns]] defenders. Gamma then left Inner End and landed on [[Hazelhurst]] and started to use similar policies to bring the world under Raven Alliance control.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 165</ref>
