The Shadow Divisions were the greatest surprise to Inner Sphere intelligence agencies during the Jihad. Led by Precentor Apollyon and reporting directly to The Master, the Shadow Divisions served as the Blakist's main offensive arm, The 504th Shadow Divisions quickly proved themselves the equal of most elite military commands. With their focus on more counterintelligence operations, the Shadow Division spent most of its time outside the borders of the Word of Blake Protectorate.The 504th Shadow Division was staffed by mainly intelligence soldiers and technicians with a single level II of Mechs. The unit was mainly kept in the background of the jihad disrupting Comstar communications and House communications with false leads, false orders, and even outright sabatoge where needed.
