History
In 3061 the Twenty-third Strike Cluster was one of two Clusters from the Clan Diamond Shark touman assigned to defend the Clan Diamond Shark holdings on Lum, operating alongside the Sixty-first Air Assault Cluster.[1] The Diamond Sharks transferred their holdings on Lum to Clan Jade Falcon as part of an arrangement over the transfer of ownership of the Twycross system, and the Twenty-third was likely redeployed away from Lum around this time,[2] as Sigma Galaxy was withdrawn from its longtime garrison posts in the Homeworlds.[3]
The Twenty-third survived the Jihad and the Wars of Reaving, along with Sigma Galaxy's Moonstone Skate.[4]
