[[Terra]]. Birthplace of humankind. Cradle of the Inner Sphere. For centuries, it has been the [[Clans]]' ultimate prize. As prophesied by their founder, [[Nicholas Kerensky]], the Clan that conquers Terra shall ascend above all others to become the [[ilClan]], ruler over the rest of the Clans. And its leader shall become the [[ilKhan of the Clans|ilKhan]], and will lead the [[Inner Sphere]] into a [[IlClan era|new era]].

And its leader shall become the [[ilKhan of the Clans|ilKhan]], and will lead the [[Inner Sphere]] into a [[IlClan era|new era]].
  
And now, nearly a century after the [[Clan Invasion]], two Clans race to be the first to reach Terra. On one side is [[Alaric Ward]], [[Khan of Clan Wolf|Khan]] of [[Clan Wolf]], a brilliant warrior and complex mix of the best of the Clans and the Inner Sphere. He comes to save the Inner Sphere from itself, intending to construct a new empire among the stars. His main adversary is [[Khan of Clan Jade Falcon|Chingis Khan]] [[Malvina Hazen]], the brutal, ruthless leader of [[Clan Jade Falcon]]. Forged in a tradition where only the strong survive, she leads her [[Clan Jade Falcon Touman|''touman'']] not to save the Inner Sphere, but to raze it to ashes and rebuild it according to her own twisted vision.

All that stands between them and a decisive victory that will reshape the Inner Sphere forever is the [[The Wall|impenetrable barrier]] shielding Terra from invasion, not to mention the forces of the once-mighty [[Republic of the Sphere|Republic]], which has no plans to surrender without a vicious fight...the only question is, who will reach Terra first?
