The '''''Odysseus''''' was an ''[[Isegrim]]''-class [[DropShip]] operated by [[Clan Jade Falcon]].

==History==
After the Clan's effective annihilation in the [[Battle of Terra (3151)|Battle of Terra]] in [[3151]], the ''Odysseus'' became part of the [[Clan Jade Falcon Remnants]] on [[Sudeten]]. It was still there when [[Clan Hell's Horses]] forces arrived, assaulting the planet in the [[Battle of Sudeten (3152)|Battle of Sudeten]].<ref name=TRp64/>

As the Falcon's leader on Sudeten, [[Khan]] [[Jiyi Chistu]], felt he could not win in an open fight, and that the attackers didn't respect Chistu's people, refusing to treat them as a real Clan, he opted against a conventional battle and the ''Odysseus'' became a key part of his defense. The DropShip was placed at Hammarr's spaceport, apparently crashed and lifeless. The attacking Horses unit, the [[5th Horde (Clan Hell's Horses)|Fifth Horde]], saw its darkened hull. After a few volleys against it that failed to provoke a reaction and after two trucks of engineers escaped from it, considered the ship abandoned and ignored it, advancing around it.<ref name=TRp64/>

Once the Falcons' and Horses' forces engaged, ''Odysseus'' opened fire with their weaponry against the Hell's Horses forces around it, using portable generators to power the weapons on the powered-down vessel. Their first volley stunned the Fifth Horde, the second destroyed a full binary of 'Mechs and tanks. The Falcons' [[1st Falcon Sentinels (Clan Jade Falcon)|First Falcon Sentinels]] charged over the Horses, forcing them into retreat. The Horses massed fire against the ''Odysseus'', totally destroying the ship, but by then they had already lost almost a full [[Cluster]] in the battle.<ref name=TRp64/>
