Clan Star Adder nominally follows the standard [[Cluster]] formation, with three [[OmniMech]], one [[OmniFighter]] and one [[Elemental]] [[Trinary]].  However, the Star Adders have long favored the type of mobile warfare embodied by 'Mechs, especially heavy and assault 'Mechs configured to inflict maximum damage, with the result being that little thought was usually given to infantry or air assets.  Depending on their unit type then some Clusters will have only an Elemental [[Binary]] or a [[Supernova (unit)|Supernova]] instead, and/or be supported by only a Binary or even just a single [[Star]] of fighters.  The exact composition of a Cluster then varies between units, though every Cluster includes a Command Star, usually a [[Nova (unit)|Nova]] formation from which the [[Star Colonel]] can direct his troops.  At the [[Galaxy]] level, each [[Galaxy Commander]] has their own Command Trinary with two to three Support Trinaries, mostly conventional [[artillery]].<ref name=CC119>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 119</ref>

Second-line Clusters have fewer [[OmniMechs]], which are generally assigned to commanding officers, with the standard heavy [[BattleMech]] as the main fighting machine, though some of these will be as old as the [[Star League]] itself.  On average, second-line Clusters will have only a Star or two of fighters and a Binary or Trinary of Elementals.  A standard heavy BattleMech is the mainstay of the garrison Clusters. In addition, every Provisional Galaxy has two or three Clusters of [[Combat Vehicle|conventional armor]] and [[infantry]] assigned to it.<ref name=CC119/>

For much of its history, Clan Star Adder maintained a large fleet along with a reserve of mothballed vessels ready to call on. This allowed them to rise in power among the Homeworld Clans but also gave opponents, including Dark Caste, Clan Burrock rebels, and Society subversives, the ability to quickly reactivate potent formations when such forces rose up in defiance. The Clan's self-appointment as the savior of the Clans and leader of the most reactionary views regarding isolation from the taint of the Inner Sphere has been assisted by the strong naval force the Clan commanded as of 3090, the latest report of the Homeworld situation.

'''Field Uniform'''

{|class="wikitable"

−
The Star Adder Field Uniform is a combat utility jumpsuit with camouflage appropriate to the condition of the terrain the warrior is in. A patch of the Star Adder insignia is worn on the right shoulder, Cluster insignia is on the right, and rank insignia is worn on the right breast and sleeves. Additional harness and belts may be worn based on the wearer's assignment. MechWarriors and Aerospace Pilots wear a specialized version of the jumpsuit.<ref name=FMCCp120>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 120: Clan Star Adder Uniforms</ref>

−
'''Dress Uniform'''
 
−
 
 
−
The Star Adder dress uniform coat and trousers are made from polished black leather, giving the appearance of snakeskin. The coat is cut in an open style, clasped at the neck by a brooch that bears the crest of the wearer's Cluster. Bloodnamed warriors often inscribe their Bloodnames along the brooch's edge. The coat is trimmed in silver and another color denoting the warrior's class: red for MechWarriors, blue for Aerospace Pilots, Green for Elementals and yellow for standard infantry and combat crews. The trousers have the same vertical cut. A white shirt or blouse is worn underneath the coat. Rank insignia is worn on the right breast. Polished, knee-high black boots round out the uniform. Veterans style their rank insignia from bones or metal retrieved from battle.<ref name=FMCCp120 />

'''Ceremonial Uniform'''

The ceremonial uniform is the same as the dress uniform, but adds an enameled mask styled after the Star Adder.<ref name=FMCCp120 />
