Word of Blake Background (Resurgence AU)

== Additional context on The Word of Blake ==
At the end of the Jihad, with the Word of Blake’s defeat on Terra, the wretched Devlin Stone took Terra and shattered any hope of restoring the Star League.  A mere prisoner in an indoctrination camp brought everything the Master built crashing down.  Worst of all he allied with the abominations that are the Clans and even allowed some to become his “Knights” and set foot on Terra. 
Our surviving Shadow Divisions retreated to our remaining Hidden Worlds.  The Hidden Worlds were rife with resources but, not everything we needed to sustain us until we rebuilt enough strength to challenge the repulsive Houses and Clans.  As seen with Amaris’ forces, the deep periphery is a possibility to rebuild and create a home for the Blessed Blake’s Light.
As we proceeded to plan our movement to the deep periphery, we took steps to make the Hidden Worlds appear dormant, quarantined, and ruined.  Using our advanced cryo technology, a number of defenders remained on world in the event of a breach.  The rest of the divisions travelled Rimward, along the Free Worlds League and Capellan border. 
During the travel, agents were deployed along numerous worlds to send reports and create a flow of both resources and recruits to join the Word.  Finally reaching the edge of the Inner Sphere the search began for habitable worlds.  Thanks to the fighting of the Succession Wars multiple forgotten worlds were found. New recruits and a workforce were abundant, voluntary and conscripted.  Any that possessed HPGs that still had any functionality or had long since fallen to disarray were disassembled and the vital components brought to the fleet.
A handful of worlds were eradicated if they did not provide personnel or material assistance after what the Word of Blake needed was acquired.  Finally settling on a range of planets in an undiscovered solar system, numerous jumps from the edge of the Inner Sphere, rebuilding occurred. 
Only three factions remained in the conclave – Counter-Reformists, Toyamas, and True Believers.  With seven Shadow Divisions remaining they were divided and reorganized.  Each faction began with two Shadow Divisions, the last was gifted to rebuild ROM.  With the might of our forces working together and the new workforce in full swing, the new Word of Blake worlds were built. In a matter of decades viable shipyards, mechworks, training centers, weapons manufacturers, and more were up and running.  At the same time the Word of Blake Militia was built anew. 
3142 was the year that production peaked.  Naval Vessels were upgraded, technologies incorporated and advanced.  In particular, the Celestial, Demon, and Spectral series machines began rolling out in a consistent quantity.  Standard Battlemech designs began production, maintained designs were upgraded and brought up to modern standards.  Then, by the end of 3150 the most horrific news arrived.
While glad to hear that Devlin Stone was dead, it was because the abominable Clans had reached precious Terra and even worse, their leader, Alaric was forming a new false Star League!  This lead to the gathering of the Precentors and while the plan was always to rebuild and relaunch the Jihad, this grotesque violation of the Word’s glorious prophecy cannot stand. 
A meeting of the Precentors would occur to finalize the plans to invade.  Even given the time to organize their forces, the catastrophic losses of the Wolf clan would take a long time to replace.  Especially with the Jade Falcons nearly wiped out, their “ilClan” was very weak.  Even before the Shadow Divisions and Militia are mobilized assets in the Inner Sphere could disrupt their rebuilding efforts.
Having learned the lessons of the failed Clan invasion, the Word always planned on a two pronged assault as well as forward troops disrupting other areas of the Inner Sphere, and multiple support lines.  Based on the recent reports, the Precentors decided they were going to attack from the Spinward and Rimward sides of the Inner Sphere.
