Coventry Campaign
The Turkina Keshik was deployed to Coventry with Jade Falcon forces, but did not participate as a unit. Several warriors from the Keshik were temporarily detached to the Harrier and Red-Tail ad-hoc units, which did see action against the Waco Rangers. Additionally, several Trinaries from Turkina Keshik were attached to Clusters full of younger warriors to help stiffen their resolve.[1]
Hegira War
In 3061 the Turkina Keshik fought alongside Khan Marthe Pryde against Steel Viper-forces on several planets in their shared Occupation Zone.
Dark Ages
In March 3150, the Turkina Keshik was on Skye along with the 124th Falcon Striker Cluster when three front-line Clusters from Clan Wolf's Beta Galaxy dropped on the planet. Turkina Keshik thought Alaric Ward was leading the Wolf forces and wanted the honor of capturing or killing him. Turkina Keshik poured heavy fire into the Wolves' 19th Striker Cluster and even engaged them at close range. As soon as they were committed, the Ninth Wolf Guard Striker Cluster slammed into the Keshik from behind. The warriors of Turkina Keshik were forced to retreat, and eventually this became a rout. The survivors of the Keshik and 124th Falon Striker Cluster withdrew from Skye on March 12, 3150[2]
Officers
| Rank | Name | Command | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Commanding Officers of the Turkina Keshik | |||
| Khan | Yvonne Hazen | ???? – 3020[3] | |
| Star Colonel | Elias Crichell | 3020[3] | |
| Star Colonel | Vandervahn Chistu | 3053[4] | |
| Khan | Marthe Pryde | 3061 – 3062[1] | |
Notes
- Due to the many demands on the Khan Marthe Pryde's schedule, the Keshik was normally overseen by the unit's XO, often a Star Colonel who was prepared to command a Galaxy. In 3062 the unit's XO was Star Colonel Quillic Mattlov.[1]
Tactics
The Turkina Keshik hold rigidly to Zellbrigen, and specialize in the Nathaculor.
Composition History
Unlike many Clan Keshiks, the Turkina Keshik is always a Cluster in size. This allows them greater tactical flexibility and allows the Khan to dispatch units as needed. Only Trueborn warriors are allowed in the Turkina Keshik.[1]

Game Rules
=Shattered Fortress
- Turkina Keshik uses zellbrigen. If their opponent breaks zellbrigen they gain access to the Force the Initiative and Overrun Combat special abilities.
- When rolling on a random assignment table, each Star of forces fielded may roll one time on the Republic of the Sphere Random Assignment Table.[5]
Notes
The name for this unit is derived directly from Turkina, the founding Khan Elizabeth Hazen's own jade falcon memorialized in the Legend of Turkina.[6]
