BETA GALAXY: NIGHT HOWLERS
OVERVIEW
Despite its excellent performance during
Operation Revival, Beta Galaxy suffered serious casualties. An asteroid impact
in the Damien system destroyed a Beta Dropship, resulting in the loss of an
entire Cluster, and the Seventh Bear Guards were completely destroyed in the
Hoth forest inferno on Tukayyid. These major losses most likely explain
Comstar's occasional incorrect identification of Beta Galaxy units as belonging
to the second-line Theta Galaxy. After rebuilding, Beta Galaxy is not as
seasoned as it once was, but still manages to stand as an equal among other
Ghost Bear front-line Galaxies.
The insignia of Beta Galaxy is a bear silhoutted against a silver moon, sitting on its haunches and howling like a wolf.
OFFICERS
TACTICS
Trinary Galaxy Command (The Shrill Keshik)
1 Trinary/Veteran/Fanatical
CO: Galaxy Commander Loremaster Laurie Tseng
The personal unit of the Loremaster is composed entirely of her lifelong friends. In battle, they work together as a seamless whole; Tseng rarely has to issue orders to her unit. The unit insignia shows a white bear in its haunches, holding a black hunting bird on its arm, as though it were a falconer.
Last Known Location: Strana Mechty
12th Bear Chevaliers (The Wendigos)
5 Trinaries/Veteran/Fanatical
CO: Star Colonel Douglas Silva
The Chevaliers saw plenty of action during the invasion, using Elemental support to its fullest advantage. In rebuilding their losses since Tukayyid, the unit has taken on extra battle armor. It now supports two Trinaries of Elementals, plus two Supernova Trinaries and a single Binary of fighters. The unit insignia is a white Elemental battle armor suit with claws rather than weapons at the ends of its arms.
Last Known Location: Sternwerde
304th Assault Cluster (The Howling Bears)
5 Trinaries/Veteran/Fanatical
CO: Star Colonel Paul Vishio
The Howling Bears fought in many key battles of the invasion, including the liberation of of Policenigo from the grip of a criminal government. Star Colonel Vishio makes excellent use of the Elementals in his command as sappers and headhunters. The insignia of the 304th is a bear silhouetted against a gray castle tower, sitting on its haunches and howling like a wolf.
Last Known Location: Maule
332nd Assault Cluster (The Iowa Blacklancers)
5 Trinaries/Regular/Reliable
CO: Star Colonel Gosvoda Nuyriev
Unusual for an assualt Cluster, the 332nd has four Stars of aerospace fighters, but few Elementals. Star Colonel Nuyriev, an aerospace pilot, is expert at coordinating air strikes and ground assaults. His particularly aggressive and often crafty tactics have placed him under the watchful eye of Galaxy Commander Tseng. The Cluster inignia is a black knight mounted on a barded bear, emblazoned on a gray castle tower.
Last Known Location: Rubigen
14th Battle Cluster (The Maulers)
5 Trinaries/Elite/Questionable
CO: Star Colonel Dane Jorgensson
The Fourteenth encountered several disreputable mercenary opponents during the Inner Sphere invasion. Savagely ambushed by the Regal Death on Susquehanna, Star Colonel Jorgensson pushed for the Khan to declare all mercenaries dezgra, and was granted his wish. Since then, this unit has embarked on a campaign of destruction against any merecenaries they encounter, destroying every 'Mech of the Blue Lightning on Kaesong with neither batchall or remorse. Their extremist attitude and Crusader leader have labeled them as a unit of questionable loyalty. The unit insignia is a roaring black bear with blood-soaked claws on a blue star-shaped fiend.
