Changes to post Clan Invasion history so far have included following ….

• An extreme Partisan / Commando activity upon all Clan Held Words;
• The use of Fenrir forces to deny Clan Convoys and Support facilities within the Periphery and Deep Periphery;
• Resulting in reduced personnel, reduced supplies etc for Clan Forces / increased salvage and utilisation of Clan “bondsman” within IS forces
• 2nd Generation IS Omnis are being produced + Warships etc
• Second Refusal Battle to deny additional Clan Provisional Garrison Clusters into the IS (ie. SLDF Vs Clans …. (Unknown if individual gamers considered this for their game)
• Delay to Operation Bulldog / Serpent until just before the ending of the 15 year truce
• More IS anti-Clan Forces have been established for the SLDF
• WOB have been included into the Star League – their 13 Shadow divisions have been included into the SLDF
• Of which have resulted in new 3rd Generation IS Omnis are being produced + Warships etc
• War between the IS and IS Clans – those that have not joined the Star League have been kicked out of the IS and are now residing somewhere in the Deep Periphery / returned to Clan Space.

It has now been 5 years since the Clans have been a problem to the IS with the success of the Great Refusal / Great Clan Civil War (depending on how you want your game to go) upon the Clan Home worlds.

There has been a leak of information within a FC Government Department – knowledge as to the Viable worlds Fenrir and their DC counterpart have found within the Deep Periphery have become common knowledge.

Individual families, religious groups and great corporations from throughout all the IS states have all begun “wagon trains” to colonize / exploit the natural resources these viable worlds as part of a new belief in the ‘manifest destiny’ of the human race as the new Star League continues to ensure peace within the IS.

This is quickly followed by Fenrir units (and their DC compatriot units) once more – their role however has now changed to that of the American Cavalry units within the old wild-west and also includes the law and order marshals of that era.

Sooner or later FC and DC Cavalry units will clash as FC and DC colonists / industries clash – via the hired gun mercenaries that they have hired – as an official border between the two realms is determined by whoever has the military might to enforce the border.

So how can this eventuate?

First, suspend all previous beliefs as to the size of each Great House’s Jump-Ship Fleets – they have enough to conduct this new colonization!

Second, consider the old migration patterns of Europe and the Americas –individuals, groups and industries all looking for prosperity within the Deep Periphery.

In comparison to a Jihad war this could have alternate possibilities – at least you wouldn’t have to worry about nuclear, chemical, biological or orbital bombardments.

In addition what happens when these new territories want “statehood” or even independence sometime in the distant future of the IS

You could even use the TV show Firefly as an example of what it could possibly look like.

After the end of the Clan-Invasion war, vast new Deep Periphery worlds that were conquered enticed immigration from many Inner Sphere citizens. Influenced by either religion (for example the One Star Faith), culture or folklore many Federated Commonwealth citizens began to look for a new more prosperous way of life within the Deep Periphery.

Thus the Federated Commonwealth Land Claim Legislation was passed allowing settlers to emigrate, this was quickly followed by Large Corporations establishing either new agriculture or horticulture empires or those involved in the exploration for precious metals and rare gems also produced a second rush into the Deep Periphery.

During this time transportation networks were established to serve the majority of these new immigrants during the Periphery expansion.

In the interest of law and order and maintaining the borders of their new expanded realm military units followed these pioneers into the Deep Periphery.

However in reality as the military was unable to be everywhere at once, the law of the Deep Periphery became determined by the end of a gun and the utilization questionable mercenary units of – might makes right.
