In early [[3147]], Horn and Beta Aimag participated in the Spina Khanate's blockade of the [[Regulan Fiefs]], particularly [[Regulus]] itself.

By January [[3152]] Horn and others within the Clan Protectorate forces had agreed to betray the [[Free Worlds League]] to the [[Wolf Empire]] in exchange for control over their [[HPG]]s, and personally led an invasion of [[Stewart]] to claim it for the [[ilClan]] from 23 February. Finding the [[Thirtieth Regulan Hussars]] and [[Steel Wolves]] defending the world, Horn's units focused on claiming the New Edinburgh Palace from the Steel Wolves, though without much success through to March.

By January [[3052]] however, Horn together with other Clan Protectorate forces had agreed to betray the [[Free Worlds League]] to the [[Wolf Empire]] in exchange for control over their [[HPG]]s, and personally led an invasion of [[Stewart]] to claim it for the [[ilClan]] from 23 February. Finding the [[Thirtieth Regulan Hussars]] and [[Steel Wolves]] defending the world, Horn's units focused on claiming the New Edinburgh Palace from the Steel Wolves, though without much success through to March.   
  
Attempting to resupply after the extended stalemate, Horn sent one of his ''[[Union-C]]''-class DropShips back to the ''Talismantia'' with a number of damaged 'Mechs for repair, but it was intercepted and destroyed by the Hussars' [[aerospace fighter]] complement. Faced with dwindling supplies and mounting losses, Horn then made the decision to withdraw from Stewart, leaving it in League hands.<ref name=EA67></ref>
