The Omega Galaxy (PGC) was station range of worlds in Wolf Clan's holdings. These included [[Vorarlberg]], [[Stanzach]], [[Engadin]], [[Ferleiten]], [[Dawn]], [[Leoben]], [[Balsta]], [[Skallevoll]], and [[Wheel]].<ref>''Objective Raids'', p. 32 Omega Galaxy (PGC) - Unit listings and worlds protecting the Wolf owned worlds.</ref>

Operation Reunion, rooted in the [[Battle of Arc-Royal (3146)|fall of Arc-Royal]] to the [[Clan Jade Falcon|Jade Falcons]] in [[3146]], aimed to reintegrate [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]] into the broader Clan Wolf. [[Alaric Ward]], eyeing them as potential shock troops for the [[Battle of Terra (3151)|Terra campaign]], extended an olive branch despite their [[Abjured]] status. Although [[Khan]] [[Miriam Shaw]] initially declined the offer, the possibility to protect Terra from [[Malvina Hazen]] inspired many Exiled Wolves to reconsider and reestablish communication between the two Wolf Clans. Shaw and others believed that staying in the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] as Malvina's Falcons formed into [[ilClan]] would be the ultimate betrayal of their warden, protective heritage. Although due to the fighting on Arc-Royal and the neighboring worlds, of the nine operational Wolf-in-Exile Clusters, only six had survived to abandon their garrisons in May [[3148]].<ref name=ILC_99>''IlClan'', p. 99</ref>

On November 6, [[3150]], Alaric sent then-[[saKhan]] [[Anastasia Kerensky]] to formally mend the rift between both halves of Clan Wolf and bring Shaw’s warriors to Terra. Although the details remain classified, the information given suggests a plausible scenario where Anastasia declared a [[Trial of Possession]] for the Wolf-in-Exile ''[[touman]]''. This would have involved a series of harvest trials, one for each operational Cluster, with the outcome leading to Anastasia taking each cluster as bondsmen and making them full Wolves by cutting their [[bondcord|bondcords]] immediately. What is known is that Anastasia was accompanied by a MechWarrior Star from the [[Golden Keshik (Clan Wolf)|Golden Keshik]] (with only two of whom returned), the Exiles' [[Golden Keshik (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|Golden Keshik]] was noticeably weakened between their disappearance and reappearance at Terra, and Shaw either voluntarily forfeited or lost her Khan status.<ref name= ILC_99/>
The Khan Ward created the newly reformed Omega as means to concentrate [[Warden]] politically aligned Warriors of the then largely aggressive Crusader controlled Clan.

During the years prior to the [[Jihad]], the Omega had been laying on the Periphery border of Clan Wolf's occupation zone.  Its most notable action during this time period was when the Galaxy clashed with the [[New Belt Pirates]]. The galaxy lost [[cluster]] worth of forces inflicting significant damaged against the Pirate band.  By 3067, it was considered a shadow galaxy, however its was noted for its dedication to the Clan that whom despised.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 53 Omega Galaxy - Minior information regarding the clans and its activites up to 3067.</ref>

The Omega Provisional Galaxy, is a Wolf Empire military formation formed in 3151 by the survivors of Clan Wolf-in-Exile at the start of the ilClan Era as a result of Operation Reunion.

History[edit]

Operation Reunion[edit]

Operation Reunion, rooted in the fall of Arc-Royal to the Jade Falcons in 3146, aimed to reintegrate Clan Wolf-in-Exile into the broader Clan Wolf. Alaric Ward, eyeing them as potential shock troops for the Terra campaign, extended an olive branch despite their Abjured status. Although Khan Miriam Shaw initially declined the offer, the possibility to protect Terra from Malvina Hazen inspired many Exiled Wolves to reconsider and reestablish communication between the two Wolf Clans. Shaw and others believed that staying in the Lyran Commonwealth as Malvina's Falcons formed into ilClan would be the ultimate betrayal of their warden, protective heritage. Although due to the fighting on Arc-Royal and the neighboring worlds, of the nine operational Wolf-in-Exile Clusters, only six had survived to abandon their garrisons in May 3148.[1]

On November 6, 3150, Alaric sent then-saKhan Anastasia Kerensky to formally mend the rift between both halves of Clan Wolf and bring Shaw’s warriors to Terra. Although the details remain classified, the information given suggests a plausible scenario where Anastasia declared a Trial of Possession for the Wolf-in-Exile touman. This would have involved a series of harvest trials, one for each operational Cluster, with the outcome leading to Anastasia taking each cluster as bondsmen and making them full Wolves by cutting their bondcords immediately. What is known is that Anastasia was accompanied by a MechWarrior Star from the Golden Keshik (with only two of whom returned), the Exiles' Golden Keshik was noticeably weakened between their disappearance and reappearance at Terra, and Shaw either voluntarily forfeited or lost her Khan status.[1]

On April 19, 3151, Clan Wolf-in-Exile formally returned as Omega Provisional Galaxy with their five operational Clusters making planetfall on Terra and deploying fifty-eight days later. Surprising the Jade Falcons and exacting brutal revenge for Arc-Royal's ravaging. [1]

After the IlClan Trial Galaxy Commander Shaw petitioned to shift Omega from provisional to full frontline duty based on their exceptional trial performance.[1]
