Intended to be a continuation of [[Operation NOYAN]], it was modest at best, intending to take some Falcon's planets, testing new units and tactics. For Gottfried it was also a mean to keep Fulk distracted, as both were fighting for their Clan's leadership position. As some pointed, the operation was fueled by Lassenerra's hate towards the Falcons. Reviewed by the Horses ''ristar'' Star Captain [[Peter Cobb]] was made better, with a stronger logistics.<ref>''Elements of Treason: Honor'', ch. 5</ref> − − ===Race to Terra=== − After the beginning of Stampede, taking easily the Falcon's world of [[Shaula]], the February [[3151]], and confirming all the Falcons had gone to Terra, Fulk wanted to expand STAMPEDE to conquer all Falcon's worlds, now vulnerable, but Gottfried decided instead to cease the offensive and made the Hell's Horses push rimwards towards Terra, taking all their [[WarShip]] complements and only Alpha and Fire Horse Galaxies, despite the protests of some of his subordinates. − They did not reach humanity's birthworld before [[Clan Wolf]] triumphed and claimed the position of ilClan of a [[Third Star League|reborn Star League]]. Gottfried, after being invited to [[Terra]], refused to acknowledge [[Alaric Ward]] as their [[ilKhan]].<ref>''Elements of Treason: Honor'', ch. 19-20</ref> − − ===Hinterlands Campaign=== − After returning to their Occupation Zone, the Horses Khans redirected STAMPEDE against the now-vacant Falcon Occupation Zone, now a chaotic zone known as the [[Hinterlands]], but Gottfried's slowing of the offensive, excessive caution and keeping some Galaxies in reserve costed the Horses' dearly. Although the Horses meet some success, destroying the [[Turkina Ascendancy]] proto estate and annexing twenty worlds, their underestimating of their adversaries caused the defeats at [[Butler]] and the [[Battle of Sudeten (3152)|Battle of Sudeten]]. The last one saw Falcon Khan [[Jiyi Chistu]] defeating the Horses, thus preventing the Horses from claiming the vital production center. With STAMPEDE thus ending in a humiliating fizzle, the Hell's Horses underwent a leadership change as the more aggressive saKhan [[Fulk Lassenerra]] took control of the Clan, slaying Gottfried Amirault in a [[Trial of Position]].<ref name=ICp107>''IlClan'', p. 107: "The Meeting of the Khans"</ref><ref name=TRp84>''Tamar Rising'', p. 84: "Clan Hell's Horses"</ref> <ref>''Tamar Rising'', p. 68: "The Consequences of Caution"</ref><ref>''Elements of Treason: Honor'', ch. 24-36</ref> ==References== ==References== Line 33:
