−	The '''Eleventh Wolf Guards''' was a [[Cluster]] in the [[Clan Wolf Touman|Clan Wolf ''touman'']]. It was one of the first Clan Clusters created and since then has had an ever increasing tally of victories and glory in battle.  No one is sure if this history, or a tradition within the unit, has led to the Cluster's reputation of being almost comically arrogant and having a sense of self-importance.  But the other members of Clan Wolf's ''touman'' find the Cluster's antics entertaining.<ref name=WCS100>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 100, "Notes"</ref>	+	The '''Eleventh Wolf Guards''' was a [[Cluster]] in the [[Clan Wolf Touman]].

They faced heavy losses, and during a strategic retreat a lone Star of the Eleventh smashed through the [[Clan Widowmaker]] defenses. This forced the Widowmaker units to withdraw but the saKhan wasn't found.<ref>''Operational Turning Points: Widowmaker Absorption'', p. 25-26</ref> A few days later they faced the First Spinner Cluster again, and faced near-certain destruction. However the [[3rd Scorpion Cuirassiers (Clan Goliath Scorpion)|3rd Scorpion Cuirassiers]], led by [[Loremaster]] Ethan Moreau and Khan Cyrus Elam of [[Clan Goliath Scorpion]], reinforced the Eleventh and provided enough time for the Eleventh to regroup. The combined Scorpion-Wolf force then destroyed the Widowmaker unit, ending the [[Trial of Absorption]].<ref>''Operational Turning Points: Widowmaker Absorption'', p. 27-28</ref> ===Operation Revival=== The Cluster participated in [[Operation Revival]], in [[3049]] they invaded [[Oberon VI]] and destroyed the First Oberon Guards completely.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 27-28</ref> This fight also gave the Wolves insight into how the [[Inner Sphere]] would fight.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook]]'', p. 56</ref> The command element then neutralized [[Skelvik]].<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 58</ref> Moved to [[Leoben]], where they faced significant guerrilla resistance they were unprepared for.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 59</ref> In August of [[3050]] elements of the Eleventh assaulted [[Hohenems]] and quickly took the world. At the same time, the remainder of the unit attacked [[Kufstein]] and took that world after seven days of fighting.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 62</ref> They later invaded [[Radstadt]] along with the [[Red Keshik]] and the rest of Delta Galaxy. The Guards faced the heavy [['Mech]]s of the [[4th Drakøns|Fourth Drakøns]] early in the fighting and were stopped by the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] unit. Supporting [[Elemental]] forces were able to get behind the Rasalhague defenders and caused them to withdraw. The cluster continued its advance towards Radstadt's capital, surviving several ambushes by the defenders.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 38</ref> The Eleventh managed to skirt the Fourth's flanks and won the battle.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 39</ref> In November [[3051]] the Eleventh landed on [[Vorarlburg]] and quickly took the planet from the world's defenders.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 65</ref> Four months later they invaded [[Carse]].
