Star Fleet 2010

For those Battletech Nuts out there like myself, you likely remember when Fanpro first put out the Historical’s they gave us this nice list.. it included the War of 3039, The brush wars and… Operation Klondike.. We got the first two which where great books but then of course Fanpro was always behind and well really sucky.. then Catalyst took over and we’ve not seen any more Historical’s though in the Chats and the like we have been told that we’d see them come out.. Herb and the like had said in them that they planned on getting back to them.

Well if you go to Classic Battletech’s website of Http://www.classicbattletech.com and take a look at the comming soon you will see that it lists Historical: Operation Klondike That’s right, it’s there and while Catalyst doesn’t typically give us dates on the release, you can at lease be certain that if they PUT something up it WILL be coming out.

So some of you who don’t know Battletech as well as well nerds and the like, like me… are likely going ‘Whats the big deal’ the big deal is that for the first time in Battletech history we actually get actual facts of the events that created the clans, Operation Klondike was the moment that the clans became a reality in many respects, when Alexander Kerensky took the Star League Defence Force from the Innersphere, things where good but by the time he had died.. the SLDF and it’s families etc where at each others throats with out Alexander and with out the whole thing of being in the IS they reverted back to well.. being Innersphere yuppies.. and war broke out as they vied for what they had.. Nicholas, Alexander’s son took a group and lead the second exodus and there he formed the clans and went back and to the pentagon worlds in what was Operation Klondike.. So we here get to see the battles fought by the 500 who held the original bloodnames.. we get to see ALL of the clans in action rather then those that survived to 3050 and we get to see the events that lead up to the ‘Unnamed Clan’ or Clan Wolverine’s split with the Clans..

I for one can’t wait to get my teeth into it.
