History[edit]
The Fifth Viper Regulars were transferred from Nu Galaxy to Chi Galaxy in 3054,[1] they were then posted to Antares in the Steel Viper Occupation Zone.[2] The Cluster was still defending the plant in 3061.[3]
By 3067 the Cluster had moved to New Kent.[4]
The final fate of the Cluster is not known, but they would not have survived the destruction of Chi Galaxy or that of Clan Steel Viper in 3075.[5]

Tactics[edit]
In the 3050s the unit was equipped with front line machines but the warriors lacked the experience to use them effectively. During engagements the Regulars would go onto the offensive attempting to place their opponents in a corner with their aggressive maneuvers.[1]
