Overview
Tau Galaxy was a front line military formation of Clan Smoke Jaguar.
History
The Galaxy was created with one purpose in mind, the destruction of Clan Nova Cat. The warriors had been genetically engineered from the legacies of the finest warriors to have participated in the Invasion of the Inner Sphere.[1] Elements of Tau Galaxy left Clan space for the Periphery in May 3056.[2]
The Galaxy moved to the Periphery world of Wayside V, here they constructed a base and over the following year received further drafts of warriors allowing the formation of three Clusters. During this time it was under the command of the senior Star Colonel on the planet until Devon Osis formally took command in June 3058.[3]
While the forces were assembling they were discovered by elements of the Explorer Corps, although their detection was not known to the Jaguar warriors. The facilities on Wayside were mistaken for a supply base on the Exodus Road. The forces garrisoning it were thought to be a Provisional Garrison Cluster without OmniMechs or aerospace assets. With this information Omi Kurita hired elements of the Northwind Highlanders to capture the planet.[4]
The Galaxy was destroyed by combined forces of mercenaries and Clan Nova Cat on Wayside V in August 3058.
