| − | This Cluster is one of the many [[Solhama]] units in [[Clan Jade Falcon]]. Note that "Dark Wing" is a generic term in Clan Jade Falcon denoting ''[[solahma]]'' units,<ref>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 95</ref> so the unit described here, also known as ''The Old Vultures'' may be "a" (and not "the") Dark Wing Cluster.

| − | ==History==
| |
| − | In [[3051]] the unit was assigned to [[Apollo]] when [[Snord's Irregulars]] attacked the planet in search of an [[SLDF]] facility which turned out to be [[Camelot Command]]. After defeating elements of the cluster, they left the planet, but there was enough information still on the planet for the Dark Wing Cluster to locate by themselves the SLDF facility.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The unit embarked in the ''[[Hawk Eye]]'' (an [[Aegis]] [[WarShip]]) along with the ''[[Diamondstar]]'' (a ''[[Union-C]]'' [[DropShip]]) and the ''[[Majestic Defiance]]'' (another ''Union-C'' DropShip). Surprised by the ''[[batchall]]'' issued by Snord's Irregulars, they accepted the fight, which they lost.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The survivors plus the DropShips were taken by Snord's Irregulars as ''[[isorla]]'' and entered their new clan: [[Clan Snord]].<ref name=RIp52>''Rhonda's Irregulars (scenario pack)'', p. 52 "Jade Falcon Roster"</ref>
