History
The Chieftain was an Overlord-class DropShip supplied to Wolf's Dragoons at their formation, and used as Jaime Wolf's command vessel.[1]
In 3006, the Cheiftain was present in the raid on the Hegemony Bay BattleMech production facility on Styk.[2]
As of ca. 3030 it was assigned to Able Battalion, Alpha Regiment.[3]
In 3054 the ship was commanded by Captain Cythene Martel.[4]
By 3055 it was still assigned to the command company, though instead of carrying a BattleMech battalion like a regular Overlord, the 3055 Chieftain was assigned to a combined force consisting of altogether 15 'Mechs, 2 aerospace fighters, one battle armor squad/point (5 individual battle armor troopers), and 5 ground vehicles.[5] This seems to suggest the Chieftain was either modified, or replaced by a differently configured vessel.
The Chieftain survived the Word of Blake Jihad, and the Dragoons kept it as a command ship. In 3151, it still had that role, and even carried onboard Jaime Wolf's immaculately mantained Archer. After participating at the Battle of Terra (3151), the Chieftain housed a meeting of Dragoons officers, where their new leader, Colonel Henry Kincaid, informed them than the Dragoons were to wage war against Alaric Ward and the Wolf Empire.[6]
