(This unit should not be confused with the Clan Wolf garrison of the same name; in fact, the existence of a Clan Jade Falcon Cluster called the Nega Garrison Cluster may have been misreported. See Notes section below for details.)

History[edit]

Nega Garrison Cluster was a second line military formation of Clan Jade Falcon. Nega Garrison Cluster was known to have taken part in the conquest of Quarell[1] in December 3051 when the Delta Galaxy assaulted the planet.[2] It is not recorded if Nega was assigned to Delta or was following in their wake as support. The commanding officer at this time was Star Colonel Aidan Pryde[3]. This unit also dealt with the Vreeport uprising on Quarell.[4]

After the Truce of Tukayyid the Cluster was assigned to Iota Galaxy and continued to be stationed on Quarell.[5]

Notes[edit]

  • Although mentioned in canonical sources, the existence of this unit under this name is questionable. There is a Nega Garrison Cluster in the Clan Wolf touman, and Field Manual: Crusader Clans notes that in 3054, Kael Pershaw "so confused ComStar operatives in the Falcon Occupation Zone that they misattributed the location and allegiance of many Clan units. Indeed, according to ComStar's initial reports, the Falcon Iota Galaxy comprised five Clusters, four of them belonging to the Wolf Clan."[10]
  • In Bred for War the garrison of Baker 3 is identified as Nega Cluster. This error was later corrected in the more detailed sourcebook The Falcon and the Wolf, stating the actual unit was the Jade Falcon Eyrie Cluster. It is possible that this unit was informally known as the Nega Garrison Cluster following Pershaw's ploy.
