The '''Forty-second Battle Cluster''' was a front line cluster of [[Kindraa Beyl-Grant]]. In [[3048]] they provided one [[Star]] to Clan Fire Mandrill's Provisional Assault Cluster that competed in the Trials prior to [[Operation REVIVAL]].<ref name=OTP>''Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials'', p. 19-20</ref> It was stationed on [[Foster]] in [[3059]].<ref name=FMCRC150>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 150 </ref> A lack of integrated fighters meant it had to rely on the [[Kindraa Beyl-Grant Command Binary (Clan Fire Mandrill)|Kindraa Command Binary]] for air support.<ref name=FMCRC50/>

In [[3066]] Kindraa Beyl-Grant challenged for the position of [[saKhan]] within the Clan in an attempt to bring more Warden causes before the Clan Council. [[Kindraa Sainze]], holder of the office, was infuriated and struck at the Beyl-Grant with three Clusters. The fighting was fierce and Beyl-Grant stood a good chance of being annihilated but [[Kindraa Payne]] and [[Kindraa Faraday-Tanaga]] intervened and forced the Sainze warriors to withdraw. The Forty-second were destroyed in this conflict.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 42</ref>
