Kristof Martens was commander of the Second Drakøns BattleMech company during the Ronin War.[1]

History[edit]

The Eighth Rasalhague Regulars and Twelfth Sun Zhang Academy Cadre refused to accept the establishment of the Free Rasalhague Republic in March 3034 and went rogue, traveling to the Predlitz system because it was very pro-Combine.[2] The First Tyr and Second Sword of Light pursued them there, and after two months of fighting were able to force the ronin to surrender.[1]

About the time the entirety of the First Tyr shipped out for other assignments, it was discovered that the Eighth Regulars' commander Sho-sho Sven Johannsen retreated to Predlitz's moon of Krakau using a hidden DropShip and met up with the remnants of the unit. The newly formed Second Drakøns had been brought in to relieve the First Tyr and were rerouted to the moon to confront them, suffering heavy casualties in the process.[3] The battle came to a head in the tunnels of a mining colony, when Johannsen was stopped just short of blowing the mine's main fusion reactor by Löjtnant Kristof Martens of the Drakøns, who blasted through the cavern's ceiling and his 'Mech fell on top of the ronin commander, crushing him.[1]
