Colonel Jerico Marsden was the commander of the Twenty-fifth Heavy Assault Regiment, with the Lyran Commonwealth, at the start of the First Succession War.[1]

History[edit]

Considered one of last descendants of Alistair Marsden, Jerico Marsden and the Twenty-fifth Heavy Assault Regiment were based on Trolloc Prime, as of 2786. When the Draconis Combine invaded, Marsden and his unit became of one of the first casualties of the First Succession War, after they disobeyed an order to retreat and made a last stand outside of the planetary capital city. Holding fast for a week, which allowed other Lyran forces to withdraw off-world, they were eventually destroyed.

Following these events, a legend grew up around the lost unit, which told of ghostly MechWarriors from the Twenty-fifth appearing as good luck omens to Lyran units before missions against Combine opponents.[1]
