	===Operation Revival===		===Operation Revival===
−	During [[Operation Revival]] '''Epsilon Galaxy''' was considered the weakest of [[Clan Wolf]]'s five [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] due to the fact it was composed mostly of [[freeborns]] and those [[trueborns]] too old to continue their service in other units. Given second-rate equipment and assigned garrison duties, those times when the Galaxy was not completely ignored it was often blamed for any troubles to have befallen Clan Wolf, while any success if noticed was chalked up to luck.<ref name=WCS105/> Often, an honorable death was all the warriors of Epsilon had left to them.<ref name=RI68>''Rhonda's Irregulars'', p. 68</ref>	+	Units of Epsilon Galaxy fought on the following worlds during the invasion of the [[Inner Sphere]]:
−	However [[Ulric Kerensky]] was far more lenient and understanding of Epsilon Galaxy during his service as senior [[Khan]].<ref name=WCS105/> When it came time for Clan Wolf to increase its pace and be the first to reach [[Terra]], Khan Kerensky utilized Epsilon Galaxy for the first time in frontline combat when the Dorbeng Garrison Cluster was used to simultaneously conquer two worlds, [[Bruben]] and [[Hermagor]], during the Third Wave in June [[3050]].<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 59</ref> This Cluster was used again along with the Green Keshik to conquer the strategically important world of [[New Oslo]] during the Fourth Wave in July.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 64</ref> During the Fifth Wave Epsilon Galaxy was far more active and conquered multiple worlds. In November [[3051]] the Choyer and Gurbeng Clusters took [[Cusset]] while the Green Keshik, Nega and Dorbeng Clusters secured [[Laurent]].<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 64</ref> Two months later in December [[Hainfeld]], [[Karston]] and [[Wheel]] were taken, the first by the Green Keshik, Nega and Dorbeng Clusters, the second by Choyer and the third by Gurbeng.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', pp. 66–67</ref> Finally in April [[3052]] the Green Keshik and Dorbeng Cluster captured [[Ramsau]], the last world conquered by Clan Wolf before the [[Battle of Tukayyid (3052)|Battle of Tukayyid]].<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 69</ref>	+	====Wave Three====

−	After the Battle of [[Tukayyid]] in [[3052]], Epsilon Galaxy was renamed '''Sigma Galaxy''' and acted as a garrison [[galaxy]] in the [[Clan Wolf Touman|Clan Wolf ''touman'']] for the newly won Occupation Zone. By [[3054]] Sigma had its clusters spread across the Wolf territory including in the near [[Periphery]].<ref>''Objective Raids'', p. 32</ref> [[Sigma Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Sigma Galaxy]] survived the [[Refusal War]] relatively intact. [[Khan]] [[Vlad Ward]] had Sigma retrained and restructured, handing command of the Galaxy to [[Katya Kerensky (31st c.)|Katya Kerensky]].<ref name=CWOK32>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 32</ref><ref name="FM:CCp145">''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 145: "Delta Galaxy: The Snarling Wolves"</ref> As the Crusader Wolves reorganized it was renamed as '''Epsilon Galaxy''' once again for the short existence of [[Clan Jade Wolf]].<ref name=F&W468>''The Falcon and the Wolf'', pp. 46–48</ref> This situation lasted for only 19 days (14 Dec [[3057]] - 2 Jan [[3058]]) before Khan Vlad Ward rechristened the Clan to full active status as the new Clan Wolf after killing the newly elected [[ilKhan]] [[Elias Crichell]]. The Jade Wolf Galaxy was disbanded to form the core of the rebuilt Wolf [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)| Delta Galaxy]].<ref name="FM:CCp145"/><ref name=CWOK32/>	+	* [[New Oslo]]
−	===Republic Era===	+	====Wave Five====
−	Epsilon Galaxy was rebuilt sometime after the [[Jihad]], although it had not formed by 3085. During the move of the Wolf Clan from their Occupation Zone to the new location on the [[Free Worlds League]]/[[Lyran Commonwealth]] border, Epsilon was able to easily take many Lyran supply depots. The Galaxy rebuilt from this ''isorla'' and as such became known for its heavy and assault units. Wolf commanders feel that this preponderance of weight makes the Galaxy too slow for offensive operations, so it found itself stationed on the systems at the center of the [[Wolf Empire]] as a defensive unit.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 159</ref>	+	* [[Cusset]]

−	The unusual composition of Epsilon Galaxy's Clusters came about following the capture of [[Star Colonel]] [[Vlad Dinour]] of [[Clan Goliath Scorpion]] in [[3012]], who brought with him his Clan's traditions of unique mixed [[Trinary|Trinaries]]. The even number of 'Mech, Elemental and fighter [[Stars]] in each Trinary makes them ideal for defensive operations while still providing a potent offensive punch.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 104</ref>	+	{{sectionstub}}
