==History==
In [[3061]], the '''Twelfth Provisional Garrison Cluster''' was stationed on [[Last Frontier]] as a part of [[Sigma Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Sigma Galaxy]].<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 163: "Deployment Table - Clan Ghost Bear"</ref>

=== First Draconis Combine/Ghost Bear War ===
Despite being a second-line Galaxy, elements of Sigma Galaxy took an active part in the [[1st Combine-Dominion War|First Draconis Combine / Ghost Bear War]],<ref name="FM:Up61">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 61: "Sigma Galaxy"</ref> which began in [[3062]] with a suicidal attack by three [[regiment]]s of the [[Alshain Avengers]] against [[Alshain]].<ref name="FM:Up60">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 60: "Overview"</ref> Late in the War the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] launched an attack on [[Last Frontier]], a daring deep strike that mauled the defending [[21st Phalanx (Clan Ghost Bear)|Twenty-first Phalanx]] and Twelfth Provisional Garrison Cluster.<ref name="FM:Up61"/>

=== The Jihad ===
Morale within Sigma Galaxy plummeted during the [[Jihad]], as the [[7th Bear Regulars (Clan Ghost Bear)|Seventh Bear Regulars]] were reassigned to [[Omicron Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Omicron Galaxy]] to join the campaign against the [[Word of Blake]] but the remainder of the Galaxy, including the Twelfth, were consigned to garrison duty within the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]]. The drop in morale quickly changed once the [[2nd Freemen (Rasalhague Dominion)|Second Freemen]] and [[1st Kavalleri (Rasalhague Dominion)|First Kavalleri]] [[regiment]]s<ref name="FR:Cp10">''Field Report: Clans'', p. 10: "Sigma Galaxy"</ref>—both former [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] [[regiment]]s—rebelled in October [[3076]] against the [[Trial of Position|Trials of Position]] mandated by the Ghost Bears after the incorporation of the Free Rasalhague Republic into the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]].<ref name="JHS:Tp22">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 22: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56: "The Jihad In Review"</ref> Sigma Galaxy were positioned to contain the rogue units, working alongside [[Tau Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Tau Galaxy]]<ref name="FR:Cp10T">''Field Report: Clans'', p. 10: "Tau Galaxy"</ref> until [[Rasalhague Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Rasalhague Galaxy]] could return to Dominion space to lead efforts to put down the mutiny without creating a public relations catastrophe.<ref name="FR:Cp10"/>

=== The Dark Age ===
The Ghost Bear's [[Theta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Theta Galaxy]] had taken substantial damage during the Jihad, and the Dominion Council decided to disband a number of second-line [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] to assist in rebuilding various elements of the [[Clan Ghost Bear Touman|''touman'']]. Sigma Galaxy was one of the Galaxies chosen to be disbanded, with three complete [[Cluster]]s<ref name="FM:3085p120">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 120: "Theta Galaxy"</ref> including the Twelfth transferring into Theta Galaxy.<ref name="FM:3085p127">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 127: "Theta Galaxy"</ref>

As a part of Theta Galaxy the Twelfth was relocated to the heart of the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]] as it rebuilt from the Jihad and the mass defections to the [[Republic of the Sphere]] that had prompted the transfer of so many units from other Galaxies into it.<ref name="FM:3085p120"/>
