Star Colonel is a high-level officer rank within the Clan military structure. A Star Colonel commands a Cluster of units, usually four or five Binaries, Trinaries, or Super Novas.
Only Bloodnamed warriors can become Star Colonels and a Clan usually has fewer than a dozen at any one time. Because Clan military forces are smaller in number than those of the Inner Sphere, the next rank, Galaxy Commander, is often held by the Khan or saKhan of the Clan.
As Clan society is a military-led caste system, Star Colonels must be politically, as well as militarily, adroit. Therefore a Clan colonel often has much more political power and experience than his/her Inner Sphere equivalent.
