Ibex Rampant was a BattleMech equipped warband of uncertain kind, but apparently a militia or terrorist organization (as opposed to a mercenary unit) that fought for and later wanted to reinstate the Aurigan Directorate during and after the civil war that was the Arano Restoration around 3025.[1]

History

It was implied that Ibex Rampant played some part in the famine that ravaged Panzyr during the war.[1]

Ibex Rampant had reportedly been all but eradicated during Operation RESTORED HOPE;[1] Farida Lamb had personally killed their leader on Gaucin by punching through his Awesome's cockpit with her BattleMaster's fist at some point in or prior to 3026 in what was considered a decisive end for Operation RESTORED HOPE.[2]

On 8 October 3026, Rampart Company (the restored Aurigan Coalition's black ops company) received intel from Lord Alexander Madeira regarding House Davion forces that were operating illegally oin the Capellan Confederation world of Hurik, arming local rebel groups with advanced weaponry in an effort to foment internal conflict and destabilize the region. Rampart Company assumed the identity of the Wolves of Joppa and send two lances to Hurik aboard an unmarked DropShip. Once there, they located the rebel camp and managed to draw them out enough for the rebels to be destroyed by Capellan forces. As it turned out, the rebels had contained elements of Ibex Rampant.[3]
