History
In October 2823 the Eightieth Fang launched an attack against Clan Wolverine on Circe, however the Cluster was mauled and forced to pull back to their staging areas.[1]
In 3054 the cluster was stationed on Blackjack, and was still in position in 3060. Their base was built on the foundations of the former School of Conflict.[2][3] By 3067 the cluster had taken up a garrison post on Homer.[4]
The final fate of the Cluster is not known, but they would not have survived the destruction of Omega Galaxy or that of Clan Steel Viper in 3075.[5]
