History[edit]

The 333rd Combat Assault Cluster was a front line military formation.

Operation Revival[edit]

Tukayyid[edit]

The Cluster landed in the Hladno Springs region and engaged the Com Guards, that were dug-in around the area. The area was littered with mines that caused constant problems to the Vipers. In an attempt to break out the cluster led the attack against the positions held by the 104th Division. They pushed into the Com Guard flank, but were repelled with heavy losses by combined infantry and artillery strikes. It was due to the heavy losses of 'Mechs that the Viper Khan ordered them to retreat.[1]

It appears that the 333rd were either destroyed on Tukayyid or disbanded shortly after.

Officers[edit]

Notes[edit]

  • In Steel Viper Battle Reports, a Khan Curtis Black is noted as leading the 333rd through the infantry ambushes, minefields, and artillery barages in the swamps south of Hidano Springs on Tukayyid. No Khan had tactical control of the 333rd, nor is any such Khan named in any subsequent product. Given ClanTroops' well documented issues with canonicity, the commander can be assumed to be as above.[1]
