History

The Second Wolf Cavalry participated in the fighting against Clan Ice Hellion during that Clan's initial trials to gain Elemental Battle Armor in 2868.[1]

The Cluster did not participate in the fighting during Operation Revival but was later stationed on Icar within the Wolf Clan Occupation Zone in 3054.[2]

The poorly trained freeborn warriors of the Cluster[1] were stationed on Chateau in 3059.[3] The poor ready status of the unit was of concern to their Galaxy Commander who had taken steps to rectify the situation. Over the next few years his efforts had paid off and the status of the Cluster had been raised to regular. By 3067 the Cluster had moved back to the Homeworlds and had taken up position on Circe.[4]

In later 3068 the Second were deployed to Tranquil to hold key enclaves against the assault by Alpha Galaxy of Clan Hell's Horses.[5] In April 3071 Clan Wolf was Abjured by the Grand Council. The Second along with the remains of their parent Galaxy formed a rear guard as the bulk of the Wolves fled Clan space.[6] The last warriors of the Cluster were wiped out during an orbital bombardment of the planet by Clan Steel VIper in December 3071.[7]
