Edward was a Clan Jade Falcon MechWarrior during Operation REVIVAL and the Jade Falcon Incursion.[1][2]

History[edit]

Operation REVIVAL[edit]

Prior to the Battle of Tukayyid, Edward served in the Cluster Command Star of the Gyrfalcon Eyrie Cluster within Clan Jade Falcon's Delta Galaxy under Galaxy Commander Samantha Clees.[1]

Edward was wounded during garrison duty in the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone in May 3050.[3]

Battle of Coventry[edit]

In March 3058, Edward continued to serve in the Gyrfalcon Eyrie Cluster during the Battle of Coventry. His unit would launch an attack to seize the Coventry Metal Works from the defending Coventry Donegal March Militia and the Coventry Militia.[4]

BattleMechs[edit]

Edward piloted a Zeus BattleMech and later a Griffin IIC.[1]

Notes[edit]

Per Jade Falcon Sourcebook, Edward was described as piloting a Zeus BattleMech, a machine usually associated with Inner Sphere units and not the Clans. However, Jade Falcon Sourcebook was published before the creation of many of the second line BattleMechs common to the Clans, so Edward may have in actuality been piloting a second line Clan 'Mech or an older Star League era BattleMech. Later sources such as the BattleTech: Battle of Tukayyid confirmed that some second line Clan pilots used common Inner Sphere 'Mechs refitted with Clan weaponry during the Battle of Tukayyid. So without another source confirming the type of 'Mech that was piloted, this article is written to show the machine as originally specified.
