Product Description

A HERD DIVIDED…

For the entirety of its existence, Clan Hell’s Horses has been underestimated by its fellow Clans. The inclusion of tanks and infantry alongside their BattleMech forces has often unfairly forced the Horses into lopsided alliances with other Clans. As competing Clans race headlong to conquer Terra, the birthplace of humanity, the Horses must focus on survival rather than the glory of conquest. But many Horses want more, and they refuse to be shouldered aside as Clans Jade Falcon and Wolf reap the rewards of their campaign toward Terra.

Star Captain Peter Cobb, a controversial rising star and military scholar, sees a new trail for the Hell’s Horses to blaze. This path would put the Clan on a fiery trajectory to earn the victories and respect they rightfully deserve, and push the Clan toward a prosperous future. But few embrace his controversial ideas and, divided by distrust and ambition, the leadership of his Clan lacks the will to ensure that the Hell’s Horses will be strong enough to survive the tumultuous conflicts ahead.

Caught between the bloody agendas of two rival Khans—a political maneuverer and a bellicose warmonger—Peter must find a way to restore the soul of the Hell’s Horses without sullying his honor, or risk dooming his entire Clan to extinction in the face of a rising power unlike any the Inner Sphere has ever seen…

Plot Summary

Star Captain Peter Cobb faces a Trial, defeating his opponent. The officer, a young and very promising ristar into his clan, had been writing essays criticizing both Horses' Khans and that had made him a target of both leaders' followers. Their Clan was de facto divided into two factions, and it was tearing itself apart. Peter was under the tutelage of the Horses' Loremaster, Sachiko Ravenwater, both attempting to lead their Clan into a better future. As part of that, he obtained two Lyran Commonwealth bondsmen, to train a small unit into special ops tactics. After Cobb participated into a Bloodnamed warriors meeting, he has to face another Trial, which he barely survived. After their Clan raced to Terra, attempting to fight for the IlKhan title, the Hell's Horses managed to antagonize the winners, Clan Wolf. The Horses later led the invasion of former Jade falcon's occupation Zone, with a total defeat at Sudeten. After the defeat, the Horses Khans turned at each other, with Fulk Lassenerra becoming winner. Facing another Trial, once again Cobb becomes winner, which made him a Star Colonel, giving him a greater influence within his now unified Clan.
