How would you rate the performance of each Clan during Operation Klondike and why?

All failed to match the predator's speed and grace.

Well before we get into the actual Operation I really gotta give props to Hell's Horses for beating out Ghost Bear for the Eden assignment. I always thought this could be the genesis of their Clans rivalry. Eden was the capital of the Star League in Exile and as such the greatest honor to be part of. Arcadia was second in my estimation with Babylon, Circe and Dagda all trailing behind in importance.

I am asking this because I want to check something and see if an objective after-action evaluation could open the path for something new.

Unofficially last week of the semester so crazy with work. I'll need to reread Klondike as basically was just searching through it for data before in my Warship search. My first feel of it the first time I had skimmed it was that I was shocked the Clans won and I don't think they would have if they didn't have the bulk of the Warships on their side.

Most did what they had to in order to achieve victory however on each of the Pentagon worlds it seems like there was at least one stupid Clan.

Arcadia - Star Adder running things didn't seem to sit right with the Ghost Bears who did their own thing. Blood Spirit and Steel Viper fought well as a team up until the end when things went south. Still I give the Bears the fudge bar here for almost mucking things up.

Babylon - Coyote without a doubt comes off as the biggest jerk Clan ever here. So rigid was their adherence to zell that they almost got everyone killed. Cloud Cobra, Sea Fox, and Ice Hellion weren't bad.

Dagda - Yikes, can you say Fire Mandrill sucks. So much infighting that they nearly blew it and Burrock-Widowmaker arguing didn't help matters. Sole bright to me goes to the Scorpions.

Circe and Eden I have to research before making teamwork assessments.

They were more than just 800. There is a sidebar on this topic.
