History[edit]
Clan Burrock[edit]
The 206th Hussar Cluster was used as part of the Burrock bid in the Operation REVIVAL trials. At the time they were part of Clan Burrock's Beta Galaxy.[1] During the Trials, they faced Clan Blood Spirit and Clan Steel Viper and lost both engagements.[2] After this the Hussars were transferred to Pi Galaxy.
The fighting on Priori during the Burrock Trial of Absorption in 3059 left little over a Binary of 'Mechs functional of the 206th Burrock Hussar Cluster. However, all seventeen warriors pledged themselves to their new Clan.[3]
Clan Star Adder[edit]
Their highest-ranking surviving officer and new Star Colonel rebuilt the 206th Hussar Cluster with former Burrock warriors back to three full Binaries. The unit contains mostly Burrock warriors but as the Cluster is newly formed it was given a green rating in 3059.[3] It was posted to Albion[4] in 3060, but by 3067 had moved station to Hoard and was rated regular.[5]

Tactics[edit]
