Carlton Goldman was a notable officer in the Robinson Draconis March Militia during the Dark Age Era.[1]

History

Leftenant Goldman commanded a reinforced lance of six mortar BattleMechs during the 3144 Battle of Robinson. Working alongside a detachment of battle armor spotters, Goldman's artillerymen would savage the Draconis Combine's reconnaissance units before fading deeper into the capital city of Bueller. During one of their attacks, Goldman's men came under direct threat when an enemy Venom escaped the target zone and directly assaulted the mortar 'Mechs with its pulse lasers. With the battle armor moving in to support them, Goldman personally charged the Venom in his 'Mech, kicking it with his machine's legs before stomping it to pieces once it had collapsed onto the ground.[2][3]

Ultimately, Goldman was one of the last of the Robinson DMM's MechWarriors to be defeated during the defense of Robinson. Although his men managed to stay ahead of the Combine's advancing forces for nearly a full week, an assault from a pair of Sword of Light Rokurokubis spelled the end of his unit. While the artillerymen were able to damage both enemy machines with their feet, the significantly more dangerous swords wielded by the Combine warriors quickly disabled all of the militia 'Mechs.[1]
