Character Profile
Affiliation Star League
Rank General

General George Roy was the commander of the Star League Defense Force's Second Army from at least 2764 to 2784.[1][2]

History[edit]

George Roy graduated at the top of his class at the War Academy of Mars before going on to be one of the most skilled officers in the SLDF. During Operation SMOTHER, he served in the Thirty-ninth Royal BattleMech Division when it was deployed to Klathandu IV, participating in a brief battle against Draconis Combine forces before their surrender.[1]

While a brilliant tactician and charismatic leader, as with many Federated Suns commanders, he preferred to lead from the frontlines. This made him popular with the enlisted troopers but strained his personal security detail and his ability to coordinate his entire army.[1][3]

Roy survived the Amaris Civil War, still being in command of Second Army on 14 February 2784, to be at Commanding General Aleksandr Kerensky's announcement of Operation EXODUS to senior SLDF's officers on Terra.[2]
