Overview
The Two Hundred and Twenty-fifth Jaguar Battle Cluster was a front line combat unit of Clan Smoke Jaguar.
History
Operation Revival
The 225th Battle fought on the following worlds during the invasion of the Inner Sphere:
Wave One
Virentofta
The 225th Jaguar Battle performed a combat drop on Virentofta in April 3050 straight onto the two 'Mech companies and the infantry battalion of the Seventh Hell's Brigade mercenaries as they attempted to flee the planet from Port Shanty. The battle lasted several hours spilling in to the fields surrounding the spaceport. Two points of Elementals seized the mercenary DropShips and the Brigade was wiped out trying to recapture them.[1]
Wave Two
- Sawyer - Defending the woods to the east of the capital city the Dark Horns Mercenary Company were quickly destroyed by Alpha Nova of Supernova Battle. [2]
Wave Four
- Wolcott - Galaxy Commander Dietr Osis led the 225th Battle into a trap in the swamps of the planet where hit and run strikes as well as long range fire from the Genyosha slowly whittled away the Clan troops until Osis surrendered. [3] [4]
Wave Five
- Luthien - During The Battle of Luthien, the 225th Battle Cluster made a night attack against the largest ore mine on Luthien in the Nijunen Desert. Defending this mine was the 143rd Luthien Defense Regiment, who fought the Jaguars to a stand still but were eventually forced to retreat. [5]

Notes
- There is no mention of the 225th after the middle of the Fifth Wave of Operation Revival, so it is possible the unit either rotated back to the Clan homeworlds, or more likely, was disbanded after taking heavy casualties on Luthien [8] with its former warriors assigned to other commands.
