History The Odysseus was an Isegrim-class DropShip operated by Clan Jade Falcon. After the Clan's annihilation on the Battle of Terra (3151) it became part part of the Clan Jade Falcon Remnants on Sudeten, its capital. It was still there when Clan Hell's Horses forces arrived, assaulting the planet in the Battle of Sudeten (3152).[1] As the Falcon's leader, Khan Jiyi Chistu knew they cannot win the Horses in an open fight, and, besides, the attackers didn't respect Chistu's people, he was forced to avoid a conventional battle... and the Odysseus was a key part of his defense. The DropShip was laid on Hamarr's spaceport, apparently crashed and lifeless. The attacking Horses unit, the Fifth Horde saw his darkened hull, and after a few volleys against it, without and reactionb, considered the ship abandoned, specially after two trucks of engineers escaped from it, and ignored it, advancing around it.[2] But they've made a serious mistake: while Falcon's and Horses forces engaged, Odysseus opened fire with his weaponry against the Horses around it. the Odysseus was powered down, yes, but using portable generators bring aboard, gunners were able to use their weaponry. Their first volley stunned the Fifth Horde, the second destroyed a full binary of 'Mechs and tanks. The Falcons First Falcon Sentinels charged over the Horses, forcing them to retreat. The Horses massed fire against the Odysseus, totally destroying the ship, but that didn't compensate their losses: in the battle, they've losed almost a full Cluster.[3]
