The First Tyr arrived on Predlitz in early June, attempting to engage the ronin forces holding the planet.  However, due to its regiment being made up with strictly heavy and assault BattleMechs, the unit were not able to corner the lighter ronin machines of the Eighth Rasalhague and Twelfth Sun Zhang.  After three weeks of trying to engage the enemy, the [[Second Sword of Light]] arrived to assist the Republic regiment. The Second Sword contacted the First Tyr after assaulting Predlitz's moon, Krakau, destroying the ronin militia base there. Then Second Sword, in concert with First Tyr, conducted combat drop on to of the Kalitz spaceport, where ronin forces put up a stiff resistance. The Combine's DropShip, ''[[Osaka]]'', was damaged in the fighting.  It was then that General [[Christian Månsdottir|Månsdottir]], commanding First Tyr, pulled both units from the fighting, in order to better preserve both regiments for a better opportunity to finish off the renegade ronin forces.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 111: "Predlitz" - 1st Tyr arrives in long chase with ronin troops on planet</ref>

In early August, the Second Sword managed slip elements of its own force into the two ronin regiment's rear operating areas.  This caused the two units move, precisely, into a waiting First Tyr hiding in ambush. Artillery fire launched at General Månsdottir's command drove the ''ronin'' forces into guns of the regiment's BattleMechs. During the fighting, Bravo Company of the Tyr's Second Battalion was noted for taking out two companies of ronin 'Mechs.<ref name=20YUp49>''20 Year Update'', p. 49: "Performance"</ref>  The action finalized the destruction of most of the Twelfth Sun Zhang units on planet, with only a lance's worth of forces slipping away. Three weeks of salvage work resulted in the discovery of the missing ronin MechWarriors, which included the Eighth Rasalhague's commander, ''[[Sho-sho]]'' [[Sven Johannsen]]. It was learned that survivors had slipped away to a hidden DropShip and made their way to join survivors of the Eighth on Predlitz's moon.  Republic forces in the form of the newly formed [[2nd Drakøns (Free Rasalhague Republic)|Second Drakøns]] arrived to relieve the First Tyr. General Månsdottir had them redirected to Krakau where they finished off the remains of the Eighth Rasalhague.

In October, the First Tyr arrived on planet. The [[1st Kavalleri (Free Rasalhague Republic)|First Kavalleri]] had been fighting for months with elements of ronin from the [[603rd Tank Regiment|603rd Tank]] and [[49th Mechanized Tank]] regiments.  Having destroyed the 49th Mechanized and both units transportation assets in initial raid in August.  However, the Republic tank regiment had been outflanked the 603rd's maneuvering which led them into city.  Troubles with the mercenary unit [[Vincent's Vigilantes]], allowed the ronin forces to prolong the battle for the planet. The Tyr managed hunt down the renegade tank unit and mop up the remaining fighting on the planet.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', pp. 117–118: "Situation on Radstadt and 1st Tyr resolving it"</ref>

This unit, unlike its first incarnation as a 'Mech regiment, the new First Tyr re-formed as a smaller battalion consisting of assault BattleMechs,<ref name=FM:Cp142>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 142: "Rules - 1st Tyr"</ref> with three supporting formation making up the rest of the size. The unit became a symbol of strength for the Republic. The First Tyr's command lance comprised captured Clan [[OmniMechs]] help bolster the unit's image of strength. The unit by [[3062]], had conducted several raids into Clan space, to show its abilities.<ref name=FM:Cp74/>

By the late 3060s, the unit had expanded to two battalions of Assault 'Mechs, with only the limitation of keeping the unit's elite status preventing it  from becoming a full regiment.  The unit's supporting forces, were also bolstered . While stationed near the [[Janesek Industries]] plant on [[Orestes]], the Tyr's aerospace assets were expanded to a full wing of fighters which included the new [[Huscarl (Aerospace Fighter class)|Huscarl]] [[OmniFighter]]. The infantry regiment received [[Inner Sphere Standard (Battle Armor)]] suits from the [[Lyran Alliance]]. The infantry also serve double duty acting as the Elected Prince's bodyguards.<ref name=FM:Up93>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 93: "1st Tyr"</ref>
