History[edit]
Cardiff's Crushers were a small mercenary company that was contracted in 3057 by the nascent Styk Commonality to liberate Gan Singh from the chaos caused by the capellan upraising that happened as part of Operation Guerrero. The unit were able to easily defeat the local Count's noble retainers (the Count's Own Guards, small force of the local nobleman's soldiers made up of approximatelly a lance of BattleMechs and a lance of Combat vehicles).
The destruction of the Count's Own Guards spelleng the end of active resistance to the Crushers on Gan Singh, though the Crushers went on to exterminate the Capellan partisans, correctly guessing that they'd be the next targets on the Capellans' list once they dealt with the locals. Although there were scattered other forces on-planet, mostly deserters from the First Federated Commonwealth RCT and even a lost company from the Third Donegal Guards, they were too far away to stop things when the government joined the Styk Commonality.
The Crushers remained as garrison until their contract expired and they boosted for newer contracts.[1]
