Last Frontier was the first of [[Clan Ghost Bear]]'s targeted planets during the third wave of [[Operation REVIVAL]], an intended stepping stone for their eventual conquest of [[Rasalhague]] itself. On 23 June [[3050]], [[saKhan]] [[Theresa DelVillar]] led the [[Silveroot Keshik (Clan Ghost Bear)|Silveroot Keshik]], [[Ourse Keshik (Clan Ghost Bear)|Ourse Keshik]], and the [[1st Bear Guards (Clan Ghost Bear)|First Bear Guards]]' 310th Assault Trinary onto the planet's surface, where they confronted the defending [[1st Freemen (Free Rasalhague Republic)|First Freemen]] [[regiment]] at Brighton Rock and Ascension.  Compared to the elite of the [[Clan Ghost Bear Touman|Ghost Bear ''touman'']], the inexperienced Freemen had no real chance of victory but nevertheless gave it their all.  In the end they managed to extract a heavy price from the Ghost Bears when Ourse Keshik, personally led by saKhan DelVillar, raided one of the Freemen's supply caches on 24 June. ''[[Överste]]'' [[Knute Kurita]]'s defending company of 'Mechs opened fire on the charging warriors and, surely by chance, scoured a direct missile hit on the Ghost Bear saKhan.  Severely injured but still alive, she was removed from the battlefield by her [[Elemental]] [[Point]], but the injuries sustained caused the saKhan to slip into a coma from which she never emerged.  This set in motion a series of events which would have serious consequences for the Ghost Bear Clan throughout the rest of the invasion.<ref>''Invading Clans'', pp. 21–22, 32</ref>

On 7 October [[3051]], a Draconis Combine raiding force secretly landed on Last Frontier. After diversionary attacks on some outlying facilities, a mercenary MechWarrior infiltrated a Ghost Bear base and stole a ''[[Kodiak]]'' assault 'Mech under cover of a radiation storm and Combine communications jamming. It is unclear whether the mercenary delivered the ''Kodiak'' to the Combine as contracted, or if he took the ''Kodiak'' for himself after killing all witnesses.<ref name="MW2:M">''MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries''</ref>
