Steel Coil Command Cluster
| Former | 3112 |
| Nickname | Unnamed Keshik |
| Affiliation | Clan Steel Viper |
| Parent Command | Fer-De-Lance Galaxy |

Steel Coil Command Cluster is the command element of Fer-De-Lance Galaxy in Clan Steel Viper. They were originally slated to be called Steel Coil Keshik, but Sunny Moffat, the current Khan of the Vipers at the time, decided to eschew such naming conventions going forward. Warriors in the Steel Coil generally refer to the unit as “the Unnamed Keshik” because of this.
Recent History
Steel Coil Command Cluster was formed with Fer-De-Lance Galaxy in 3112 by Khan Sunny Moffat, who took command of the unit. The expansion of the touman was seen as required both for potential upcoming operations in the Inner Sphere, but also to position many warriors of the Clan which had no “home”. As a unit with no real history, Sunny Moffat refused to name Steel Coil a Keshik, but it was still an honor for many warriors to join the unit.
After Khan Moffat’s untimely death, command passed to Sebastien Cochraine, who was seen as a proper military man for the occasion. Working together with Khan Hartford Zalman, Galaxy Commander Cochraine brought his unit into full service by training his men and women as bioroid commanders.

Tactics
As a command unit, the Steel Coil Command Cluster is setup as a front-line unit. Most of the formation is built around fast heavies and medium ‘mechs, while commanding officers stay in the back with assault units. They employ the Viper’s Maw strategem once used by the Steel Vipers of Old from time to time.
