Overview

On 12 April, 3060, a month after the fall of Huntress, Victor Steiner-Davion led the remaining reborn SLDF into the Strana Mechty system. Granted safe passage, Prince Victor's forces landed near the Hall of Khans. A delegation of Prince Victor, Precentor Martial and other SLDF officers met with ilKhan Lincoln Osis to call a Trial of Refusal against the invasion of the Inner Sphere. ilKhan Osis agreed to the proposal, however the Ghost Bears were not pleased and claimed the Trial was exclusively against the Crusader philosophy and their invasion. Naming themselves a Warden Clan, they refused to take part in the Trial. The other Warden Clans followed suit, and the Crusader Clans, including the last of the Smoke Jaguars, were left to fight the trial on their own. Clan Nova Cat took the side of the Inner Sphere on behalf of the newly recreated SLDF. On 23 April, 3060 the SLDF and Crusader Clans clashed in a series of skirmishes culminating in the death of ilKhan Osis at the hands of Prince Victor. [1] Though the warriors representing the Jade Falcons and Star Adders were able to defeat their Inner Sphere opponents, the remaining Crusader Clans were soundly beaten and by the terms of the Trial the Clan Invasion ended. The new Star League was able to create an embassy on Strana Mechty. Prince Victor addressed the Grand Council following the trial, but his hopeful speech fell on deaf ears.
