They took part in the fighting on [[Skye]], and participated in a drive on [[Coventry]]. Unfortunately this exhausted them, and they needed time to recover. However, by the time the Falcons hit [[Tharkad]] they were ready for combat. They participated in the Falcon assault on Tharkad, but were driven off-world. In [[3145]] they raided several systems near Tharkad and this allowed them to keep their edge, but [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]] constantly posed a threat to their supply lines.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 156</ref> On February 15, 3148, Delta Galaxy and two Gamma Galaxy Clusters landed on [[Coventry]]. The world was defended by the [[17th Arcturan Guards]]. The Falcons landed at the Port St. William Spaceport. The Falcons destroyed the mine entrances that had been so effective during the [[3058]] incursion. Elements of Delta Galaxy met the Seventeenth in the Ridesein River Valley. The Falcons sent a Trinary to destroy Whitting, the location of their previous defeat and the impetus for the second Star League. [[Malvina Hazen]] thought the Second Star League was a sham, and wanted any reference to it destroyed. Footage of the Falcons destroying Whitting was broadcast to the Lyran defenders, severely affecting morale.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', pp. 49-50</ref> After two weeks of combat, the [[15th Arcturan Guards]] and [[2nd Royal Guards]], led by [[General of the Armies]] [[Roderick Steiner]] and [[Hauptmann-General]] [[Jasek Kelswa-Steiner]]. After another two weeks of combat, the Falcons isolated Jasek Kelswa-Steiner's command company and attacked. The [[LCAF]] troops forced the Falcons into a strategic withdrawal but at the cost of Hauptmann-General Kelswa-Steiner's life. The Second Royal Guards were able to reclaim the spaceport and inflict heavy losses on the First Falcon Striker and Fifty-third Falcon Talon Clusters; Eventually the Fifty-third withdrew to [[Upano]]. The loss of the Fifty-third and the other Falcon losses meant that Delta was outnumbered. Eventually [[Galaxy Commander]] Stephanie Chistu challenged Roderick Steiner to single combat and lost. The General of the Armies offered the Falcons ''hegira'', allowing the Falcons to leave. After withdrawing from Coventry, two Clusters of Delta Galaxy drove Clan Wolf's Bronze Keshik from [[Pobeda]]. Galaxy Commander Chistu offered the Wolves ''hegira''.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', pp. 50-51</ref> In November 3150 elements of Delta Galaxy landed on [[Zollikofen]] and began destroying civilian infrastructure, agricultural fields, and civilian industries. These tactics were ordered by Malvina Hazen. As soon as the damage was inflicted, [[Republic of the Sphere]] defenders were drawn out into combat with the Falcons.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 92</ref> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of Delta Galaxy''' |- | [[saKhan]]||[[Samantha Clees]]||[[3050]]-[[3076]]<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 72</ref> |- | saKhan||[[Uvin Buhallin]]||[[3076]]-[[3080]] |- | [[Galaxy Commander]]||[[Lee Newclay]]||[[3071]]<ref name=F&F09/><ref>''Starter: Fist and Falcon'', p. 24</ref><ref>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 14</ref> |- | Galaxy Commander||[[Malvina Hazen]]||[[3134]]<ref name=FotFc2>''Flight of the Falcon'', c. 2</ref> |- | Galaxy Commander||[[Stephanie Chistu]]||[[3145]]<ref name=FM:3145p168>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 168, "Clan Force Deployments - Clan Jade Falcon"</ref> |} ==Tactics== Unknown. ==Composition History== ===3048=== * [[Gyrfalcon Guards]]<ref>''Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials'', p. 22</ref> ===3049-3052=== * '''Galaxy Command Star''' - '''The Gyr Eyes''' ** '''Naval Support''': ''[[White Aerie]]'' ([[Black Lion]] [[WarShip]]), ''[[White Command]]'' ([[Overlord-C]] Command [[DropShip]]), ''[[White Cadge]]'' ([[Union-C]] DropShip), ''[[White Fist]]'' ([[Carrier]] DropShip) * [[1st Falcon Striker (Clan Jade Falcon)|First Falcon Striker Cluster]] * [[2nd Falcon Jaegers (Clan Jade Falcon)|Second Falcon Jaegers Cluster]] * [[5th Battle (Clan Jade Falcon)|Fifth Battle Cluster]] * [[305th Assault (Clan Jade Falcon)|305th Assault Cluster]] * [[Gyrfalcon Eyrie (Clan Jade Falcon)|Gyrfalcon Eyrie Cluster]] * [[Gyrfalcon Solahma (Clan Jade Falcon)|Gyrfalcon ''Solahma'' Cluster]] ===3053-3056=== * Second Falcon Jaegers Cluster * Fifth Battle Cluster ===3057=== * 2nd Falcon Jaegers Cluster * Fifth Battle Cluster * [[7th Talon (Clan Jade Falcon)|Seventh Talon Cluster]] * [[8th Talon (Clan Jade Falcon)|Eighth Talon Cluster]] ===3058-3059=== * First Falcon Striker Cluster * Seventh Talon Cluster * Eighth Talon Cluster * [[Gyrfalcon Solahma (Clan Jade Falcon)|Gyrfalcon ''Solahma'']]<ref> ''The Falcon and the Wolf'', p. 51 </ref> ===3071=== * First Falcon Striker Cluster<ref name=F&F09/> * [[4th Falcon Dragoons (Clan Jade Falcon)|Fourth Falcon Dragoons]]<ref name=F&F09/> * Eighth Talon Cluster<ref name=F&F09/> * Gyrfalcon ''Solahma''<ref name=F&F09/> ===3145=== * First Falcon Striker Cluster<ref name=FM:3145p168/> * Fourth Falcon Dragoons<ref name=FM:3145p168/> * Fifth Battle Cluster<ref name=FM:3145p168/> * [[11th Falcon Velites (Clan Jade Falcon)|Eleventh Falcon Velites]]<ref name=FM:3145p168/> * [[53rd Falcon Talon (Clan Jade Falcon)|Fifty-third Falcon Talon]]<ref name=FM:3145p168/> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Betrayal of Ideals]]'' * ''[[The Falcon and the Wolf]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Crusader Clans]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Updates]]'' * ''[[Field Report: Clans]]'' * ''[[Flight of the Falcon]]'' (novel) * ''[[Jade Falcon Sourcebook]]'' * ''[[Objective Raids]]'' * ''[[Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials]]'' * ''[[Shattered Fortress]]'' * ''[[Starter: Fist and Falcon]]'' [[Category:Clan Jade Falcon Commands|Delta Galaxy]]
