Crusader Clans

Crusader Clans were a political alliance of Clans who believed that Aleksandr Kerensky's Hidden Hope doctrine espoused the descendants of the Star League-in-exile returning to the Inner Sphere to conquer it and, thus, save it from itself. Though members have changed over the years, Clan Jade Falcon led the bloc along with the traditionally Crusader Hell's Horses, Star Adders, Smoke Jaguars, Ice Hellions and Blood Spirits. The majority of Clan Fire Mandrill's kindraa are Crusader, so that Clan usually is as well, while Clan Wolf became a Crusader Clan after it was reborn following the Refusal War. After the Clan Civil War, distinctions between Warden and Crusader became much less important.
