HCM — Last Charge of Eridani | BattleTech Electro-Metal Anthem

The final stand of the Eridani Light Horse — the last transmission from a unit that chose honor over survival.
On the burning fields of Hesperus II, they charged once more into legend.
Last Charge of Eridani blends cinematic electronic power with heavy metal grit to tell a story of loyalty, sacrifice, and fire-forged brotherhood.

"Last Charge of Eridani"

“Eridani Command — this is Alpha Lance… we’re still holding…
Godspeed brothers. FOR THE LIGHT HORSE!!

Ash rains down on Hesperus sky,
Metal burns and angels die.
We stand where legends used to kneel,
Our banners torn — our hearts are steel.

No reinforcements, no retreat,
Just echoes through the dust and heat.

Last charge of Eridani — ride into the fire,
Engines scream the prayer of the dying choir.
No gods, no glory, no command to heed,
Only honor left — and the oath we keep.

Static voices on the open band,
Names erased by shifting sand.
For every fallen mech that burns,
A brighter flame within us turns.

They’ll write our names in ash and code,
But never know the weight we rode.

Last charge of Eridani — ride into the fire,
Engines scream the prayer of the dying choir.
No gods, no glory, no command to heed,
Only honor left — and the oath we keep.

“Transmission log… last entry.
They said we were relics of a forgotten age.
Maybe so… but relics still fight.”

Last charge of Eridani — ride into the fire,
Engines scream the prayer of the dying choir.
No gods, no glory, no command to heed,
Only honor left — and the oath we keep.

Last charge of Eridani — across the blackened plain,
Steel and fire, courage and pain.
When the smoke clears, and the stars remain,
Remember the Light Horse — their names remain.

“For Star League… for honor… Eridani out.”
