BattleTech: Trial of Birthright

THE DREAM REALIZED… After a grueling campaign, Clan Wolf has finally achieved the dream of Aleksandr Kerensky, the Great Father of the Clans, and returned to the birthworld of humanity. After defeating both the Republic of the Sphere and Clan Jade Falcon, the banner the ilClan, Clan of all Clans, flies proudly over Terra, ruled by the first permanent Khan of all Khans: ilKhan Alaric Ward. But as Alaric soon discovers, it is one thing to conquer, but quite another thing to rule. Beset by problems both internal and external, the Wolves, still weakened from the brutal fighting to conquer Terra, finds itself on the defensive from a rising insurgency, a Capellan Confederation poised to invade, and rivalries between his own people as they all enter uncharted territory of founding a new Star League to rule the Inner Sphere. With threats multiplying at a relentless pace, can those who believe in the ideals of the Star League succeed in rebuilding what has been lost, or will the ilKhan strike out with his newfound power, and risk engulfing the Inner Sphere in all-out war?
