Attention Sibko!

The only known Clans in BattleTech Canon during the current timeline include:

• Clan Ghost Bear
  
• Clan Jade Falcon
  
• Clan Smoke Jaguar
  
• Clan Wolf

Devs trolling us with clan sections, right after announcement about their implementation in 2014 ?
What the hell.

HARD Corp. is rumored to have some underground ties to Clan Coyote....

Perhaps the creators of Clan Coyote for the Battletech Canon will show their faces.....

Well, the division seems to be between Inner Sphere, and Clan Homeworlds. And RA did take worlds from DC.

As of 3145, all clans are either destroyed, or somehow integrated into the local population - probably to create a "stable" environment for the next jump to 3250.

CJF anc CHH have their occupation zones, CW packed up and left, carving out a Wolf Empire from Lyran and FWL worlds. CNC was wiped out, though mystic Kisho did make it out with some warriors, supposedly headed for the Clan Protectorate in the new FWL (Spirit Cats, and CSF Delta Aimag). Ravens and Bears integrated with their populations as RA and RD respectively. So did the scorpions, leaving 4 clans in the homeworlds.

After the culling, 11 clans are left in some form or another: CW, CJF, CHH, CGB, CSR, CSF (the council of six Inner Sphere clans), CSA, CC, CCC, CSL (the 4 Homeworld Clans), CGS (Escorpion Imperio).

Both Clan Wolf and Clan Wolf-in-Exile are still around as of 3145; though the latter are essentially a sub-faction of the Lyran Commonwealth by that point anyway. (Still, if the Nova Cats are worth noting, so is CWiE.)

It should be noted, however, that no-one in the Inner Sphere or near Periphery is (publicly) aware of what has been going on in the coreward Deep Periphery since 3095 or thereabouts; there's no confirmation that the Imperio (or the four last known Homeworld Clans) still exist as of 3145.

It would be unfortunate if the kind of events hinted at in The Wars of Reaving Supplemental didn't amount to anything in the long run; but even so, it still remains to be seen if any of those Clans will be heard from again going forward.

For what it's worth, I reckon that if the Star Adders and friends were to launch a new invasion of the Inner Sphere, the ilClan sourcebook might be as good a place as any for it to happen...

But their pain is Maskirovka-related.

I for one am starting to believe that, when Clan Cloud Cobra's Khan Stiener bid no forces to retake the inner sphere, he actually meant the Clan was going to retake the IS without the use of force. Cloud Cobra might simply introduce the IS to The Way, and use political maneuvering to pacify the IS.. two things in which Clan Cloud Cobra has proven adept. Sadly, the Adders and Cobras may never actually get around to fighting IS forces.

Any other "Clans" will not be regarded as having bloodheritage, and will be regarded as Mercenary Corps until further notice. (We otherwise welcome Fan Fiction here.)
Actually Sibko is the incorrect for of Address. A Sibko is a Sibling Company, Think you were looking for Trothkin.
Clan Black Sheep doesnt have a 'Bloodheritage', we have BeerHeritages made up of BeerNames. There are some of us that do have a Bloodname (me for one and yes I came about it doing the full-on BloodRight during MW3 when I was part of Clan Wolf) but seeing as how were The Bandit Caste (as wellas the collectors of the survivors of the reavings) we dont recognize the Grand Council. We are the Clans Black-Ops and have our own oversights established by Nicholas Kerensky. Everything reported as being stolen or missing we took (BTW thanks Green Chickens we love evil twins 1,2 and 3 and Burnt Kitties the Ebon Jaguar is a bad4ss mech, sorry we took the 1st 25 produced, they werent combat lossed during the work-ups).




Thank you.

Nova Cats were wiped out in the Era Report: 3145 after ******* off Kuritans and providing shelter for one of the royal Kuritan family. Needless to say, Dracs now use Clan equipment and Nova Cats are no more.

And as far as Scorpions go, they fell during the Wars of Reaving (a massive war of all Clans during the Jihad, when Clan Wolf decided it was the time to clean up the junk: At dawn...two Clan Wolf Dropships defied Strana Mechty orbital control and roared over the city, dropping two Clusters of Omicron Galaxy on and around the Kerensky Bloodchapel. The Wolf warriors quickly overwhelmed the Chapel's guards and took possession of the entire facility. Star Colonel Ramil Kerensky then broadcasted a challenge to all of the Clans, demanding they "prove themselves worthy of the Kerensky heritage by retaking the chapel from Wolf jaws.").

I just read a thread I googled from official BT forums, from what I gathered people were saying they [CGS] went and chilled with some periphery bros like Nueva Castille? That's coo.

A note on Clans in Battletech. DARK AGE ruined the Clans for the most part, they were either absorbed into the local populations in the Inner Sphere, or were destroyed in one way or another. A total waste. This being said, I generally play the timeline until the Arrival of Dark Age, IE the Clan Invasions, etc. all the way up to Tukkayid and the wiping out of Smoke Jaguar. I do play with friends if they wish to play the eras after Dark Age. As far as I am concerned, Dark Age was a waste of time, money, and it did the game of Battletech serious harm, in my opinion.

[Jaroth Corbett]

The Scorpions absorbed the Hellions, got Abjured & kicked out of the Homeworlds, then pulled a Bear by joining with the people of Nueva Castile renaming themselves, Escorpión Imperio.
