History[edit]
Post-Invasion[edit]
After the invasion the 195th Striker Cluster was stationed on Antares,[1] but from January to March 3054 the cluster was locked in a struggle for control of Persistence with Clan Jade Falcon's Fourth Talon Cluster.[2] The 195th had landed with expectations of an easy victory, but the battle bogged down for three months, with neither side able to land a decisive blow. Finally, the commanders of both sides agreed to a personal duel to settle the fight, which Star Colonel Paul Thibaudeau of the 195th won.[2]
This campaign left a stain on the reputation of the 195th, which they tried to erase with a raid on Evciler in 3055. However, Galaxy Commander Jonathan Mercer died fighting the Seventh Falcon Regulars in this action, which led to a continuing feud between the 195th and the Seventh.[2] In 3061 the Cluster was stationed on Antares.[3]
By 3067 the cluster had moved to Marshall.[4]
Wars of Reaving[edit]
In 3072 Clan Coyote's Twenty-seventh Strike Cluster and the Forty-fourth Battle Cluster hit the Beta Galaxy positions on Londerholm and destroyed the 195th Striker in the fighting.[5]
