Clan Wolf-in-Exile Touman

Unit Structure[edit]

Like the Crusader Wolves, the Wolves-in Exile make use of the same mixed Trinary and Cluster formations, along with greater usage of the command Star, though the use of Supernova Trinaries remains rare and reserved for special purposes. Galaxy composition is also the same, with four Clusters for front-line Galaxies and three for second-line ones.[1]

Touman structure[edit]

Former Galaxies[edit]

At the end of the Refusal War and the exile of the Warden Wolves, they were charged by Ulric Kerensky with the protection of both the Inner Sphere and the Warden ideals. With the sundering of Clan Wolf in 3057, Khan Phelan Kell had a much harder time rebuilding the touman of the newly-formed Clan Wolf-in-Exile and Galaxy assignments were in flux.[2] By late 3059 though, some stability had taken place and a sense of order was restored as reorganizations were completed.

During the Dark Ages, the Exiled Wolves spent most of their time defending the Lyran Commonwealth from Clan Jade Falcon, but that would change after losing Arc-Royal to the Falcons. They would receive an offer from an envoy in the form of Anastasia Kerensky (who also had exiled Wolf origins) to join their Crusader brethren, along with Wolf's Dragoons, for one final battle against their traditional nemesis. Following Clan Wolf's victory on Terra in 3151, any remaining exile equipment and personnel were integrated back into Clan Wolf, thus reunifying Clan Wolf as a whole.

Naval Assets[edit]

No WarShips were in any condition to see the outcome of the ilClan Trial and reunification with the Crusader Wolf Clan in 3151. The last Exile WarShip, the Full Moon (Potemkin-class Troop Cruiser), was in disrepair and sold or dismantled for parts sometime between 3085 and 3145 due to a lack of shipyards available to the Wolf Exiles.[7]

Uniforms and Rank Insignia[edit]

Field and Dress Uniform

Keeping true to their heritage of the original Clan Wolf, despite their abjuration, the Exiled Wolves maintain the same uniform patterns as their estranged brethren.

Ceremonial Uniform

The ceremonial uniform consist of leather and with an enameled wolf mask. The uniform is colored in black, white, or gray. Brown, red, gold, or silver is used for warriors with elite status as an accent or to replace the standard colors of the ceremonial uniform.

Wolf fur is no longer used as a part of the dress and ceremonial uniform since they no longer have access to the Strana Mechty Wolf.[8]
