The Cavaliers had been rebuilding their strength over the years under the command of Nikolai’s son [[Jake Mason]], and after compromising a couple of Inferno operations, Kane spent weeks planning a surprise on [[Cavanaugh]] to ambush and eliminate them. Unfortunately, the Cavaliers escaped their trap and he recalled the man he put in charge, [[Kruger (Black Inferno)|Captain Kruger]], back to Xinyang for punishment. Little did they know that the Cavaliers had intercepted their message and now had the location of their base of operations.<ref name=MW5M11>''MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries'', Campaign Mission 11: "Black Harvest"</ref>

Kane lost one of his last trusted lieutenants when the Cavaliers destroyed the Black Inferno reclamation facility on [[Eaton|Eaton III]], where they also took back possession of Nikolai's ''Victor''.<ref name=MW5M11/> While consulting with Yamata on Xinyang to plan their next moves, the Cavaliers attacked their base and, despite having a garrison consisting of a full [[company]] of 'Mechs reinforced by a ComStar lance, the vengeful Cavaliers systematically demolished the Inferno's aerodrome and storage depot on their way to the main fortification. While providing Yamata with enough time to get off-world and continue his pursuits in the Periphery, Andreas Kane made his stand against the Cavaliers and failed in his last-ditch effort to decapitate their leader.<ref name=MW5M14/>
