The Beastlords were, as of 3149, a band of raiders active on Towne.[1]

History[edit]

In the years leading up to 3149, the Beastlords took control of a Star League-era bunker in Towne's Eiglophian Mountains, using it as a base of operations for their raids on nearby settlements. Limited by the Republic of the Sphere's restraints on BattleMechs, the raiders took to domesticating Towne's megafauna for labor and combat.[1]

On 24 December 3149, Santana's Slayers crash-landed on Towne. The Beastlords, the first to reach their crashed DropShip, took them captive and seized their equipment and cargo, including antigens meant to treat the ongoing Hyborian Blood Plague outbreak. A team of mercenaries attempted to rescue the Slayers and recover the antigens, to unknown result.[1]

Tactics[edit]

The Beastlords made extensive use of Towne's megafauna. Using CattleMasters, they trained and managed rodans and eiglotheriums. Greater rodans served as mounts, lesser rodans as falcon-like trained attackers, and eiglotheriums as draft animals and anti-'Mech combatants.[1]

Composition History[edit]
