==History==
 
===Operation Revival===
 
The 304th fought on the following worlds during the invasion of the [[Inner Sphere]]:
 
 
 
====Wave One====
 
* [[Thule]]
 
 
 
====Wave Three====
 
* [[Polcenigo]]
 
 
 
====Wave Four====
 
* [[Soverzene]]
 
 
 
====Wave Five====
 
* [[Mannedorf]]
 
 
 
====Tukayyid====
 
During the [[Battle of Tukayyid]], they fought and decimated the [[121st Division (ComStar)|121st Division]] of the [[Com Guards]] on the march to the city of Luk, but were forced to turn back.
 
 
 
They were among the forces that held the city of Spanac against raids by the [[91st Division (ComStar)|Ninty-first]] and [[12th Division (ComStar)|Twelfth]] [[Level IV|Divisions]].
 
 
 
====Combine War====
 
=== First Draconis Combine/Ghost Bear War ===
 
As a part of Beta Galaxy the Fourteenth was actively involved in the [[1st Combine-Dominion War|First Draconis Combine / Ghost Bear War]], which began in [[3062]] with a suicidal attack by three [[regiment]]s of the [[Alshain Avengers]] against [[Alshain]]. While the [[12th Bear Chevaliers (Clan Ghost Bear)|Twelfth Bear Chevaliers]] attacked the [[Clan Nova Cat]] forces on [[Mualang]], preventing those forces from coming to the assistance of the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]], the 304th and the other elements of Beta Galaxy attacked both [[Dumaring]] and [[Najha]].<ref name="FM:Up60">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 60-61, "Beta Galaxy (Night Howlers)</ref> 
 
 
 
The 304th took heavy damage on [[Maule]] when Nova Cat forces launched a ferocious deep strike at them, but the 304th was still able to launch an attack on [[Gunzburg]] shortly after the end of the War, working with the [[2nd Bear Regulars (Clan Ghost Bear)|Second Bear Regulars]] from [[Tau Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Tau Galaxy]] to seize the [[Clan Wolf]] world. The attack on Gunzburg was one part of the Ghost Bear counter-attack against the [[Clan Hell's Horses]] forces that [[Khan]] [[Vladimir Ward]] had brought to the [[Inner Sphere]] as allies and who had launched their own [[Clan_Hell%27s_Horses#The_Invasion|invasion]] of the Ghost Bear Occupation Zone during the Combine/Ghost Bear War.<ref name="FM:Up60"/>
 
 
 
==Officers==
 
Since the start of the Clan invasion until at least [[3067]] the 304th Assault Cluster's CO was [[Star Colonel]] [[Paul Vishio]].<ref name=FMWC89/><ref name="FM:Up77">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 77, "Beta Galaxy (Night Howlers)"</ref>
 
 
 
==Tactics==
 
As with Beta Galaxy this [[Cluster]] practices a careful approach to warfare, using mechanized [[Elemental]]s to support flanking maneuvers.  Star Colonel Vishio also employs his Elementals as effective sappers and headhunters.<ref name=FMWC89>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 89, "304th Assault Cluster Profile"</ref>
