The Fifth Falcon Regulars was a second line military formation of Clan Jade Falcon.

History

The Regulars were deprived of WarShip support for almost a year following the collision of the Kerensky's Pride with the Orbital Station at Derf in 3054.[1] They defended Steelton in 3059,[2] but had returned to the Kerensky Cluster and led an attack on the world of Strato Domingo about the time of the Great Refusal, Jaguar Annihilation, and the Wars of Possession, where Star Colonel Per Mattlov was forced to retreat by the Diamond Shark Zeta Galaxy and Rho Spina Galaxy Galaxies, not to mention Clan Hell's Horses interference.[3]

By 3064 the Cluster was split between Quarell and La Grave.[4] Quarell was lost to Clan Wolf and several bondsmen from the Fifth were taken as isorla and used to form a new Binary in the 13th Wolf Battle Cluster.[5] Survivors of Quarell joined the rest of their Cluster on La Grave.[6]

La Grave fell to Clan Wolf forces in October 3069, but it is unknown if the Fifth defended the planet.[7] The Cluster was destroyed during the Jihad.[8]
