The only unit from the brigade to survive the Jihad comparatively intact was the [[2nd Canopian Cuirassiers]], who were on garrison duty on [[Buenos Aires]] when the Blakists attacked the Magistracy. The Second chafed to return to the Magistracy, and once Magestrix [[Naomi Centrella]] prevailed upon [[Chancellor]] [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] to allow the Second to return to Canopian space the Second returned swiftly, providing an immediate message to any potential raiders or opportunists.<ref name="FM:3085p138+">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 138-139, Magistracy Royal Guards Brigade"</ref>+ <gallery> − + Image:Mag_royal_Guard_-_Raventhirs_iron_hand.jpg|[[Raventhir's Iron Hand]] − ===Post-Jihad===+ Image:Mag_royal_Guard_-_1s_canopian_cuirassiers.jpg|[[1st Canopian Cuirassiers]] − The Magestrix began rebuilding the Magistracy Royal Guards swiftly after the end of the Jihad; [[Major]] [[Jeremy Raventhir]] was moved out of the [[1st Raventhir Cuirassiers]] to become the commanding officer of the reconstituted Raventhir's Iron Hand, with elite personnel from across the [[Magistracy Armed Forces]] joining the top-ranking cadets from the [[Emma Centrella Martial Academy]] to form the new Iron Hand. For his actions during the Jihad [[Colonel]] [[Lane Meisel]] of the 1st Canopian Cuirassiers was awarded the ruby [[Canopus Cluster]] (without having to pay the customary "donation"), the [[Fist of Raventhir]] and, somewhat controversially, the [[Ribbon of the Magestrix]]. Colonel Meisel was then promoted to [[General]] Meisel and appointed commanding officer of the Magistracy Royal Guards Brigade. Colonel Goss of the 2nd Canopian Cuirassiers was appointed executive officer to General Meisel, with command of the 2nd passing to Colonel [[Joseph Wulf]].<ref name="FM:3085p138+"/>+ Image:Mag_royal_Guard_-_2nd_canopian_cuirassiers.jpg|[[2nd Canopian Cuirassiers]] − + </gallery> − The Guards have not been idle as the rebuilding continued; the bulk of the Iron Hand and the 1st were guarding Canopus in [[3085]], although a company from the Iron Hand routed a pirate attack on [[Bass]] in July; the 2nd had taken up position on [[Detroit]], guarding the valuable facilities there.<ref name="FM:3085p138+"/> − In the [[Dark Age]] the Magistracy Royal Guards were used to protect vital systems in allied territory, critical resources in the Magistracy, and worlds that were returned to the Magistracy after the dissolution of the [[Free Worlds League]].<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 191</ref>+ ==Notes== − ==Officers==+ <div class="gamerules"> − {| class="wikitable" − |- − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command − |- − | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the Magistracy Royal Guards''' − |- − | [[Colonel]]||[[Holly van Dame]]||[[3025]]<ref name=P99>''The Periphery'', p. 99: "MAF Deployment Table - 3025"</ref> − |- − | [[General]]||[[Lane Meisel]]||[[3085]]<ref name="FM:3085p138+"/> − |- − | General||[[Lori Reed]]||[[3145]]<ref name=FM:3145p200>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 200, "Magistracy Royal Guards"</ref> − |- − |} − ===Other Officers=== + ==Rules== − In 3085 the unit's XO was Colonel Goss.<ref name="FM:3085p138+"/> − ==Units of the Magistracy Royal Guards== − * [[Raventhir's Iron Hand]] − * [[1st Canopian Cuirassiers|First Canopian Cuirassiers]] − * [[2nd Canopian Cuirassiers|Second Canopian Cuirassiers]] − * [[3rd Canopian Cuirassiers|Third Canopian Cuirassiers]] − − ==Unit Insignias== − <gallery> − Raventhirs Iron Hand logo.png|Raventhir's Iron Hand − Canopian Cuirassiers 1st logo.jpg|1st Canopian Cuirassiers − Canopian Cuirassiers 2nd logo.png|2nd Canopian Cuirassiers − </gallery> + </div> ==References== ==References== <references /> <references /> ==Bibliography== ==Bibliography== − * ''[[Field Manual: 3085]]''+ *''[[The Periphery (sourcebook)]]'' − * ''[[Field Manual: 3145]]'' − * ''[[Field Report: Periphery]]'' − * ''[[Field Report 2765: Periphery]]'' − * ''[[The Periphery (sourcebook)]]'' [[Category:Magistracy of Canopus Commands|Magistracy Royal Guards]] [[Category:Magistracy of Canopus Commands|Magistracy Royal Guards]]
