Operating alongside the [[Twenty-second Marik Militia]], the Thirty-seventh landed on [[Wazan]] during the third wave of the campaign in May [[2787]], escorted by the ''[[Atreus (WarShip class)|Atreus]]''-class [[battleship]] [[FWLS Ragusa|FWLS ''Ragusa'']] and the ''[[Lola]]''-class [[destroyer]]s [[Minsck|FWLS ''Minsck'']] and [[Warsaw (Individual Lola I-class WarShip)|FWLS ''Warsaw'']].<ref name="FSWp55A">''First Succession War'', pp. 55–56: "Corey and Wazan"</ref>

The Twenty-second and Thirty-seventh faced no opposition during their landings, and swiftly captured the spaceport at Rumallah before capturing the capital city itself, during which the two Militia regiments fought minor clashes with local security and militia forces. The location of Wazan's primary defensive force was confirmed shortly afterwards, when reconnaissance forces scouting the industrial city of Asuwayda came under attack from the [[Eighth Liao Lancers]], a regiment that League intelligence assessments had placed on [[Old Kentucky]]. The Lancers forces swiftly broke off contact, but [[Colonel]] [[Daphan Hullbright]] - Commanding Officer of the Twenty-second and lead officer among the ground forces - suspected that the Lancers were attempting to lure her forces into a trap, with references to death trap tactics used by the [[Capellan Confederation Armed Forces]] during the [[Age of War]] firmly in mind.<ref name="FSWp55A"/>
