History[edit]

The 176th Attack was reduced to a single Trinary during the New Kent raid. This action saw the death of its commanding officer Star Colonel Solomon.[1]

Stationed in 3067 on the world of Hector.[2]

Mid-3071 saw the Cluster along with the rest the Zeta Prime Galaxy move to the Inner Sphere. Together with Alpha and Delta Galaxies they formed the primary attack force that moved against Clan Jade Falcon industrial worlds, under Khan Montrose. Zeta Prime assaulted Wotan as its first target, which it took although at high cost to the infrastructure and HPG of the planet.[3]

The Cluster was destroyed on Bensinger in November 3071.[4]
