==History==
Throughout its history '''Xi Galaxy''' was the location of the [[Clan Ghost Bear|Ghost Bear's]] most incompetent commanders and the Galaxy within the [[Clan Ghost Bear Touman|Ghost Bear ''touman'']] that attracted the worst of its warrior caste. Xi Galaxy suffered under the command of an abusive [[Galaxy Commander]] lacking in tactical acumen during its early years; he was soon challenged and replaced by his second in command, who proved no better a commander. This pattern of incompetent commanders continued well into the thirty-first century; the first real opportunity for change came when [[Khan]] [[Bjorn Jorgensson]] appointed [[Bradley Bourjon]] to command Xi Galaxy.<ref name="FM:WCp96">''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 96, "Xi Galaxy"</ref>

Bourjon had been a ''[[ristar]]'' aerospace pilot within the ''touman'' until he lost most of his left leg in a severe crash. The prosthetic replacement allowed him to continue functioning, but left him piloting a desk. Despite his resentment of the twist of fate that landed him command of the worst Galaxy in the ''touman'' Bourjon was determined to turn Xi around and was an able commander with a particular strength in strategic planning. Bourjon's efforts were in their infancy in the early 3060s, but the warriors of Xi Galaxy were both ferocious and highly loyal to their units - if not their commander, and continued their tradition of furious, direct assaults against the enemy, driving their foes from the field while suffering heavy damage themselves. Bourjon's efforts were being ably assisted by his aide, Elemental [[Star Captain]] James, a ''ristar'' capable of using raw brutality to keep upstarts in line, and [[Star Colonel]] Lauren, a ''ristar'' fighter pilot and commander of the [[56th Provisional Garrison (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fifty-sixth Provisional Garrison Cluster]].<ref name="FM:WCp96"/>

=== First Draconis Combine/Ghost Bear War ===
During the [[1st Combine-Dominion War|First Draconis Combine / Ghost Bear War]] Xi Galaxy launched a single offensive campaign, deploying the [[5th Bear Regulars (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fifth Bear Regulars]] to capture the [[Draconis Combine]] world of [[Richmond]]. The Fifth successfully captured the planet, only to have a counteroffensive capture their own homeworld, [[Constance]]. This forced Xi Galaxy to recapture Constance, only to lose Richmond while doing so.<ref name="FM:Up61">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 61, "Xi Galaxy"</ref>

==Tactics==
With such poor leadership, it is not surprising that Xi Galaxy's warriors typically perform frontal assaults against an enemy position. Though effective, this typically causes heavy losses for the Galaxy as well.<ref name="FM:WCp96"/>
