History
Early History
Star Colonel Sinclair fought against Clan Jade Falcon during Operation Revival during a Trial of Possession for the taking of Twycross.[1] Star Colonel Sinclair was the commanding officer of the Ninety-fourth Battle Cluster.[2] In 3055, Sinclair led his unit to an attack on the Periphery world of Trinity, held held by a Jade Falcon garrison, causing extreme damage to the solahma garrison, but the arrival of Falcon reinforcements forced the Vipers to retreat.[3] He is also mentioned as taking Schreuder Heights, in battle for Twycross that forced the 9th FedCom RCT off the planet.[4] Sinclair also served as Advocate for Star Captain Dawn Moffat in a Trial of Judgment before the Clan Steel Viper Clan Council.[5]
Trial of Grievance
In 3060 Sinclair was chosen as Clan Steel Viper's Champion for a Trial of Grievance against Clan Jade Falcon [6]. This trial was fought over the issue of Freeborns and Bloodnames [7]. This issue was really brought to light when then MechWarrior Diana Pryde fought for the bloodname of Pryde [8] also at issue was the creation of the freeborn trinary, led by Star Captain Horse.[9],[10] Star Colonel Sinclair and the Clan Jade Falcon Champion Star Captain Horse fought on Strana Mechty near the village of West Scar.[11] Star Captain Horse defeated Star Colonel Sinclair and won the Trial.[12]
Ejection of Clan Steel Viper
In 3061 Clan Steel Viper invaded the Occupation Zone of Clan Jade Falcon.[13] During the culminating battle on Waldorff, Star Colonel Sinclair while fighting alongside Perigard Zalman challenged Star Captain Horse once again to a 'Mech duel.[14] Sinclair was defeated once more and Clan Steel Viper was eventually forced to accept Hegira.[15] It is unknown if Sinclair was punished later by his new defeat. However, it doesn't appear to be the case: after returning the Homeworlds, a new Cluster was created merging the 51ts and 94th Battle Cluster remains, and Sinclair was put at his command.[16]
However, he must have been killed during his clan annihilation during the Wars of Reaving.
