History
On 7 July 3064, during the FedCom Civil War the Storm's Metal Thunder was protecting Kikuyu when the Clan Jade Falcon forces fell over them. His brother Timothy was on the landing zone, protecting it with his Stalker, but Andrew's Salamander was very far. Her tried to assist the unit's leader, Colonel Griff Storm, but he has died already when he arrived near. When Timothy called his brother, ordering him to return to the landing area, he obeyed.[1]
But his travel won't be easy: he was at the other side of the encampment, totally alone. He ran through it, being attacked by a Falcon's Timber Wolf. His 'Mech fell, but when the Falcon was to kill him, the arrival of a Demolisher saved him. The tank attacked the Falcon, and his distraction allowed Andrew to get his machine up again. He managed to crush the Mad Cats canopy, but he cannot thank the tank's crew: it has been destroyed, without survivors.[1]
He resumed his trip, and finally reached the landing area, with technicians and support staff moving toward the Thunder's two DropShips, the Falcons forces closing in, and only Timothy's 'Mech standing. He barely had get over the DropShip when his 'Mech was downed nad he fell unconscious.[1]
When his brother awakened, in the DropShip's sickbay, Timothy was at his side. He tell him that his 'Mech has been downed by a Gauss slug nad he had fell unconscious. After Andrew regreted Colonel's Griff Storm's death, he said all the slaughter was on him and he informed of his decision to travel to Melissia, joining with oner Lyran units there.[1]
After arriving to Melissia, both brothers disembarked with their barely functional 'Mechs. They were greeted by the theater leader, General Sharon Bryan and General Adam Steiner. Bryan ordered them to unload the rest of the regiments, and became totally stunned when Timothy tell her than they were all what remained of the regiment.[3]
Both brothers survived the Battle of Melissia, and evacuated the planet along with whatever forces Adam could save. In their next destiny, the planet Chapultepec both joined the fight, with their 'Mechs repaired.[4]
Timothy and Andrew's fate after Operation Audacity remains unknown, but the Storm's Metal Thunder wasn't rebuilt.
