History
The Chieftain was an Overlord-class DropShip supplied to Wolf's Dragoons at their formation, and used as Jaime Wolf's command vessel.[1]
In 3006, the Cheiftain was present in the raid on the Hegemony Bay BattleMech production facility on Styk.[2]
As of ca. 3030 it was assigned to Able Battalion, Alpha Regiment.[3]
In 3054 the ship was commanded by Captain Cythene Martel.[4]
By 3055 it was still assigned to the command company, though instead of carrying a BattleMech battalion like a regular Overlord, the 3055 Chieftain was assigned to a combined force consisting of altogether 15 'Mechs, 2 aerospace fighters, one battle armor squad/point (5 individual battle armor troopers), and 5 ground vehicles.[5] This seems to suggest the Chieftain was either modified, or replaced by a differently configured vessel.
The Chieftain survived the Word of Blake Jihad, and the Dragoons keep it as command ship. In 3151, it has still that role, and even carried onboard Jaime Wolf's immaculately mantained Archer. After participating at the Battle of Terra (3151), the Chieftain housed a meeting of Dragoons officers, where their new leader, Colonel Henry Kincaid informed them than the Dragoons were to wage war against Alaric Ward and the Wolf Empire.[6]
