In contrast to most of the other battles, most significant opposition to Clan conquest was protest marches and strikes, its military quickly collapsing. <ref name=HOK-76>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 76 "Circe - The Northern Campaign - The Last Campaign"</ref>

*<span id="Kerensky Dominion">Kerensky Dominion</span> - 3 mixed veteran battalions.<ref name=HOK-136/> Terran Loyalist faction that steadfastly held to the attitudes and morals of the Star League and Aleksandr Kerensky. Led by a triumvirate drawn from the military, political and religious elements of society, the Dominion acted only defensively and occasionally attempted to act a neutral part and peacekeeper in the region, retaining a relatively high level of technology and a strong military. Mistakenly believing they would be treated as equals, during Klondike the Dominion leadership pledged its support to the "sons of the great father" and aided the Clans in defeating the Hidalgo Empire and Tabor Voivoidate. Dismayed to find the Clans had little in common with the Star League and aggrieved at their use seemingly only as cannon fodder, a senior Dominion military officer was killed while attempting to protest the treatment of his troops, the Clans brutally putting down the Dominion's "mutiny".<ref name=HOK-72/>

*<span id="Rasmussen Elite">Rasmussen Elite</span> - 4 mixed regular battalions.<ref name=HOK-136/> A strange mixture of Lyran, Combine and Terran warriors, the Elite were a "thugocracy", offering "protection" in return for the every whim of its warriors being met. Settling its disputes between warriors in trials by combat, often to the death, in many respects the individual warriors of the Elite were the equal of the Clans in one-on-one combat, only falling thanks to their inferior technology and coordinated Clan Wolverine counterattacks. The ilKhan would ultimately describe the Rasmussen Elite as the Clans' "shadow brothers", their society corrupted by their martial prowess rather than using it to protect it.<ref name=HOK-136/> At the time of their destruction, they were led by [[Gustav Kran]].<ref name=BoIcP>''Betrayal of Ideals'', Prologue</ref>
