Unlike Arcadia, Babylon and Eden, the third SLDF colony (named for the Greek goddess-witch who ensorcelled Odysseus' crew) did not suffer from atmospheric contaminants but had its own range of problems. At first glance it was a desert world much like Babylon, but planetary modeling showed that the planet's climate was locked in a seven-hundred year cycle that would reach perihelion (its closest approach to the sun) in 2831. It brushed the inner limits of Helios' life zone (the zone around the star in which liquid water could exist) and some said life on the world would be too extreme. (Aphelion, in 3184, will see the planet at the opposite side of the life zone, glaciers and ice sheets replacing deserts.) Despite this, colonies were established though toxins in the soil posed additional complications to the establishment of a viable human enclave. Circe lacked native animal species of any significance; the climate had proved too unstable for the development of anything beyond simple animal life. So the species introduced by the colonists had no competition and prospered. Water quickly became the most valuable commodity on-world and safeguarding supplies was central to most communities. (This would be a major factor in Operation KLONDIKE.) Indeed, many early settlements were established underground at the sites of major aquifers, using the subterranean sites to escape the heat and also to shelter from the massive storms that wracked the planet. Eventually construction allowed surface buildings to weather the storms but these massively reinforced structures were almost as problematic for the Clans as the troglodyte settlements.

Clan Mongoose
Overview: Though Mitchell Loris commanded the Mongoose Clan, his role in Operation KLONDIKE was more strategic than tactical, managing both his own Clan's campaign and coordinating with the Nova Cats in their good-natured but competitive race to complete the Southern Campaign. Though Loris fought numerous times on Circe, saKhan Sais served as the principal battlefield commander, developing the Clan's tactics of fast, deadly attacks, often striking counter-intuitively where the enemy was strongest and thus least expecting to be pushed onto the defensive. The predominance of medium-class 'Mechs in the Clan served them well, giving them an innate mix of speed and firepower that allowed them to imitate their namesake.
Abilities: Clan Mongoose relies on speed and aggression to win the day. As such they may use Overrun Combat and Off-Map Movement.
Mitchell Loris' martial skill and experience is limited (he suffers a +1 modifier to all Gunnery and Piloting Skill rolls) but he is a skilled administrator and diplomat. Any group involving Loris in diplomatic negotiations gains a +1 roll modifier. Unlike Jennifer Winson, who uses her skills for the good of all the Clans, Loris will only do what is best for Clan Mongoose. Loris' skill in ensuring that the troops under his command have the equipment they need means that any logistics or Repair Checks (see pp. 178-185, SO) receive a +2 modifier.

Clan Nova Cat
Overview: Phillip Drummond's service with the Amaris military -- and his wife's peripheral involvement in the Prinz Eugen revolt -- cast a cloud over his leadership of the Nova Cats, but the martial skills of the force he shaped soon silenced most of his critics. As a former resident of Circe who had fought with Kerensky's forces there before the Second Exodus, Drummond was a natural choice for the Circe operation, and though never more than "first among equals"Â became Kerensky's de-facto deputy for the Circe assault. His knowledge of the terrain would prove vital in the Nova Cat's success.
Abilities: The Nova Cat's preparedness makes it difficult for other forces to use Tactical Command abilities against them. Whenever an opposing force attempts to use a special command ability, the Nova Cat commander may make a Piloting skill roll. If the roll succeeds, the opposing force's special ability is negated.
His dogged determination to do what is right won Phillip Drummond the trust of Aleksandr Kerensky after the Amaris Coup and won Nicholas' when he staged his Second Exodus. His wealth of experience, both during Operation LIBERATION and in the early conflicts of the Pentagon Civil war have served him well. Any force commanded by Drummond may use Banking the Initiative. Additionally, when fighting on his former home of Circe, forces commanded by the Nova Cat Khan Bank Initiative at the rate of 1-for-1 rather than the normal 1-for-2 rate. Drummond is adept at using the terrain to the Nova Cat's advantage and so he may select 50% of the maps (round up) used rather than rolling randomly -- so long as the maps are chosen from the appropriate tables.

Clan Snow Raven
Overview: Disagreements as to training practices between Khan McKenna, a former naval officer, and saKhan Merrell, commander of an SLDF mechanized infantry division, delayed combat certification of the Snow Ravens and they were the last of the twenty Clans judged ready for combat. The resulting combat force was also one of the most flexible, with 'Mech forces comprising only half its operational strength but with substantial aerospace and infantry elements, both of which would prove valuable in Operation KLONDIKE. However, the lack of a resilient 'Mech force would also be the Ravens' greatest weakness.
Abilities: When creating Snow Raven forces, each Star must contain at least 2 aerospace fighters. All Raven aerospace forces gain a -1 to-hit modifier, while all Raven ground forces suffer a +1 to-hit modifier.
Rising from front-line pilot to de facto head of the SLDF Explorer Corps (and ad-hoc commander of Nicholas' Exodus fleet), Stephen McKenna lives and breathes flight and finds being confined to the ground an uncomfortable experience. Despite this, his grasp of ground operations is strong, but he still favors air power and is a master of ground support operations. Any air-to-ground attacks by forces under his command receive a -2 to-hit modifier and scattering attacks deviate by only half the indicated distance (rounding up). McKenna's willingness to trust the skill of his pilots was nowhere more apparent than during the Battle of Bitter Tears, where attacks were called in to within meters of his own position. Second only to his love of flight is McKenna's quest for knowledge, particularly information on people, places and current events. His fascination began during his stint with the Explorer Corps but has continued through his tenure as Khan, a wide network of informants feeding information back to the Snow Ravens. He's quite happy to share that information -- for a price.

Clan Wolverine
Overview: The history of the Not-Named was purged on the orders of the ilKhan after their "treachery" a short while after Operation KLONDIKE. As such most of the details of their founding, and their role in the operation on Circe, comes second-hand, from the references in the Remembrances of other Clans. We know that they were commanded by Sarah McEvedy, though her own history is no clearer than that of her Clan, but the identity of her original deputy has been lost to the mists of time. This treatise assumes that the saKhan at the time of the annihilation, Franklin Hallis, also served in that role during the Circe campaign, though Dwight Robertson has also been advanced as a candidate, but there is no irrefutable evidence for or against either being a founder. For clarity most of this text simply refers to the "Wolverine saKhan."Â What is clear though is that for all the accusations leveled at them in the years that followed, the Wolverines fought like their namesakes: tenaciously and with deadly consequences for those that opposed them.
Abilities: Clan Wolverine may use Overrun Combat and Force the Initiative.
Strong-willed and vivacious, there is little about Sarah McEvedy that suggests the Wolverine Khan will become one of the Clan's greatest boogie-men. Attractive, outgoing and erudite as well as a skilled MechWarrior, she's not the obvious challenger to Nicholas' authority, though that's exactly what she'll do in the Wolverine Treachery. Her passion and commitment are unquestioned, and the loyalty of her troops absolute. Forces commanded by McEvedy automatically succeed at morale checks and receive a +2 Initiative modifier.
Her falling-out with the ilKhan after KLONDIKE seems to occur on multiple levels: personal (the death of Andery), professional (the distribution of cache materials), and socio-political (the extent of Nicholas' reforms and personal control). This is the chink in her armor; she takes attacks directed at the Wolverines personally and responds instinctively rather than examining the consequences, something a more skilled political opponent could take advantage of.
