History[edit]
Prior to the Clan Invasion, the veteran rated 247th Division was known by the nickname of Thoughts of War with its headquarters on the Lyran Commonwealth world of Rahne.[1]
As part of the 9th Army, during the Battle of Tukayyid the 247th faced the fearsome threat of Clan Wolf. Initially held in reserve, the 247th and 198th Division were hurriedly added to try to bolster the Com Guard defensive line protecting the target city of Skupo. Despite superior numbers and good defensive positions, the unceasing assault ultimately wore away the ComStar defenders and the line shattered after the Wolves eliminated the troublesome 278th Division, savaging divisions like the 247th as they advanced on Skupo. [2]
Following Tukayyid, the 247th was based on Solaris, in an underground bunker beneath Solaris City. Their presence was unknown to most.[3]
