Crusader Alliance

The Crusader Alliance, also known as the Crusader League or simply the Crusaders, was a confederation of Mandalorian warrior clans that rallied under the remnants of the Death Watch during the Great Clan Wars, during which the League waged war against another Old Mandalorian faction known as the Supercommandos. The confederation was named after the Mandalorian Crusaders and Neo-Crusaders that led Outer Rim conquests thousands of years earlier. As the League was comprised of over a dozen independent clans that maintained their own warriors, it did not have a central command structure or a capital, but rather scattered settlements that collectively operated as a feudal kingdom of sorts. The Death Watch leader, known as the Overlord, organized his vassal chieftains into a council that gathered eight times each year to organize dedicated attacks on enemy holdings; when these clans were not operated in a single army, they independently raided settlements and facilities controlled by Supercommando militias. Towards the end of the war, the League suffered constant infighting and political discourse though continued to remain prevalent on Mandalore until sometime around the Separatist Crisis, likely having been defeated by the progressive New Mandalorian faction.
