The Avengers detached their [[Combat Vehicle|armor assets]] and other miscellaneous forces to garrison Twycross, while the Falcons resolved to never return to Twycross. However, in April [[3065]], [[Clan Diamond Shark]] issued a ''[[batchall]]'' for control of the planet. After five days of fighting the garrison force was dispatched and Twycross became a possession of Clan Diamond Shark. The Sharks had originally wanted the planet for its disabled [[BattleMech]] factory, but later scouts from the Clan discovered that a nearby orbiting planetoid in the system - Jonah's Reach - possessed a large deposit of HarJel.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 120: "Falcon Incursion" - Events of the Lyran Alliance invasion of Falcon's OZ leads them to Twycross and its falling to the Diamond Sharks</ref><ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 58: "Diamond Sharks" - Debt Consolidation - Reaffirming planet takeover and what happened to the Avengers on planet</ref><ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 19</ref>
