Warrior House Kamata

History

Founded by Colonel Xander Kamata during the Third Succession War, is the homewordl of the unit Betelgeuse.

Won their first major victory on Hsien in 2942, over mercenaries working for House Davion.

Based on Betelgeuse during the Fourth Succession War and entrusted with the defense of the factories there, most notably the Aldis Industries and Firmir Weaponry plants. House Kamata therefore missed the fighting.

Relieved St. Ives from Davion mercenary units Kingston's Commandos and Tristram's Terrorists in 3019 together with House Lu Sann, utterly destroying the attackers.

During the Xin Sheng Campaign, House Kamata destroyed two armor Battalions of the Seventh FedCom RCT in the process of reclaiming Ambergrist.

When the time is come for the CCAF to support their Concordat allies, House Kamata was originally selected. Warrior House Lu Sann challenged this decision, which ultimately was determined by a series of mock engagements. Though it was the superior unit, House Kamata surrendered.
