The Blood Spirit forces assisted the Sainze [[53rd Assault (Clan Fire Mandrill)|Fifty-third Assault Cluster]] in the defense of their newly-acquired former Diamond Shark enclaves against an attack by Ice Hellion forces, although the valiant defense of the eastern gate of one of the enclaves by Loremaster Campbell's command [[Star]] held off a determined Ice Hellion assault, it also saw Campbell fall in battle.<ref name="WoRp54"/>

In [[3072]] the Clan Homeworlds were in a state of chaos as a result of a carefully organized series of events orchestrated by the group known as the [[Society]]. The Society crippled the bulk of the [[HPG]]s within the Homeworlds, and with the assistance of allies in the [[Dark Caste]] and others, seized a number of planets and enclaves. With most communications down, all of the Clans began to suffer from the effect of a lack of communication, inability to organize supplies, and predation at the hands of the Society and their allies, with the smaller Clans faring the worst. Clan Ice Hellion was in the process of an abortive invasion of the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone in the Inner Sphere at the time, leaving many of the enclaves with minimal defenses at best, and a number of the other Clans had noticed the lack of defenders. The Clans began raiding each other for the resources needed to sustain their own enclaves, and the Ice Hellions were easy prey.<ref name="WoRp110">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 110: "The Hellion Fades"</ref>

The Ice Hellions were in control of four enclaves on Barcella by this point; Clan Blood Spirit was desperate for resources and urgently needed to rebuild [[Clan Blood Spirit Touman|its ''touman'']], and the Blood Spirits used their forces on Barcella - augmented by some second-line units from their secret enclaves on the planet Honor in the [[Colleen]] system - to capture three of the four Ice Hellion enclaves on the planet. The Ice Hellion garrison on Barcella had been reduced to just a single [[Binary]] of forces, and the Ice Hellion enclaves hadn't had any communications from the Clan leadership in six months by the time of the Blood Spirit attack. The Ice Hellion warriors elected to defend their various stations through a series of wrestling matches, a bid the Blood Spirits accepted and won.<ref name="WoRp110"/>
