Unit Description

The 16th Wolf Guards Battle Cluster was a Clan Wolf in Exile Combined Arms military formation.

History

Originally the 16th Wolf Battle Cluster.

Jihad

During the Jihad the Sixteenth landed on Chara in the Free Worlds League as part of Operation SCOUR. There they faced off against the 4th Free Worlds Legionnaires, a unit that had defected from the Free Worlds League to join the Word of Blake. The attackers, including the Sixteenth, suffered at the hands of Chara's SDS system. These early losses reduced the Sixteenth's strength, and the entire Chara assault was a failure.[1] The survivors of the assault withdrew to Talitha, the Sixteenth was destroyed. [2]
