History

Delta Galaxy has had a history of being the least-favorite of the Clan Ghost Bear front-line Galaxies, with less prestige than Alpha Galaxy and lighter units than Beta Galaxy. Nevertheless it took part in the Clan invasion of the Inner Sphere and fought in a number of major battles.

Operation Revival

During the invasion of the Inner Sphere, Delta Galaxy fought actions on the following worlds:

Wave One

Wave Two

Delta Galaxy did not participate in Wave Two.

Wave Three

Wave Four

Wave Five

Tukayyid

Delta Galaxy was assigned to take the objective city of Luk together with Beta Galaxy. Their advance was checked when the 91st and Twelfth Divisions managed to trap Delta's 20th Polar Bear Attack Cluster and inflict heavy losees. This action forced Beta and Delta to withdraw and try to reinforce Alpha Galaxy's drive on Spanac.

Beta and Delta's eventual arrival at Spanac forced the ComGuards to withdraw from the city. Beta and Delta were left to garrison Spanac while Alpha attempted to take Luk.

Officers

From the start of the Clan invasion through to 3061 the Galaxy's CO was Galaxy Commander Roberto Snuka. The only survivor of his sibko Galaxy Commander Snuka is known for snatching victory from the jaws of defeat and is an excellent leader of Delta Galaxy. In the years since Tukayyid he has struggled to rebuild his Galaxy back up to full strength.[1][2]

Tactics

Delta Galaxy relies heavily on its officers operating in the field to make tactical decisions as opposed to other Ghost Bear Galaxies. Lacking in assault 'Mechs they prefer to soften the enemy up with air strikes before committing to an engagement.[2]
