History[edit]

Needing to come up with a way to make use of their limited resources, an idea was created and was approved by the Clan Hell's Horses Clan Council.[1]

By 3150, Horde Clusters had been doubled in size, with a total of nine (9) Horde clusters in the Hell's Horses touman.[2]

Officers[edit]

Rank Name Command
Commanding Officers of the First Horde
Star Colonel Domnall Seidman late 3080s[1]
Loremaster Sachiko Ravenwater 3152[3]
Star Colonel Peter Cobb September 3152[4]

Tactics[edit]

The Mangudai Trinary uses its speed to flank the enemy and use hit-and-run tactics to draw the enemy out of its position to allow the Tulughma Trinary to be used as a hammer. The attached Supernova is used to assist wherever it is needed. Their tactics were the basis for the new Mongol Doctrine for the Clan.[1]
