	In [[2788]] the Prefectorate Guard was deployed along with the [[Ariana Grenadiers]] to wrest control of [[Tyrfing]] away from the [[Free Worlds League]]. A former provincial capital under the [[Terran Hegemony]], Tyrfing had been devastated in [[2777]] by the campaign to liberate the planet, with the [[Amaris Empire Armed Forces]] making wide use of chemical, nuclear and biological weapons against the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[5th Army (Star League)|Fifth Army]] until the [[SLDF]] final offensive broke the defenders via orbital bombardment from the [[12th Fleet (Star League)|Twelfth Fleet]] and tactical nuclear strikes.

−	The Prefectorate Guard and Ariana Grenadiers arrived on Tyrfing in July 2788, within days of the arrival of the [[Seventh Donegal Guards]] and the [[Stealths]] - the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] having decided to act on the same rumors of SLDF weapons caches and the potential reactivation of the [[SDS]] network by the [[FWLM]] that had prompted the CCAF to invade the planet, and soon the Prefectorate Guard were embroiled in battles with both the League and Lyran units.

[[Romano Liao]] ordered the Prefectorate Guard to retaliate. The Guards engaged the mercenary forces in a series of conventional frontal assaults. They fell for several tricks by the mercenaries, and after several days of fighting the mercenary force successfully left Hexare.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 58</ref> Smashed in May [[3032]] on [[Betelgeuse]] defending it against an [[Duchy of Andurien|Andurien]] invasion, the unit was disbanded on Romano Liao's orders and the survivors incorporated into other units.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 63</ref> ===Clan Invasion to ''Xin Sheng'' Period=== During the relative peace the Confederation experienced after the Andurien invasion, both the destroyed and disbanded Prefectorate and [[Dynasty Guard]]s were rebuilt as elite, but unnamed militia units on their future homeworlds. As benefiting the political service of its predecessor unit, the reborn Guards was raised on the Confederation's capital of [[Sian]], with each of its officers having graduated from the [[Sian University]], finally earning its formal title as the Prefectorate Guards when Chancellor [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] announced the formation of the [[Liao Commonality|Liao]] and [[Victoria Commonality|Victoria Commonalities]]. <ref name=FMCC-51>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 51 "Capellan Hussars: The Old Guard"</ref> Deployed to the commonality capital of [[Victoria (CC)|Victoria]] during the ''[[Xin Sheng]]'' era, the Prefectorate Guards served to defend the important manufacturing center as well as assisting in the training and evaluation of [[Periphery]] units on-world as part of the [[Trinity Alliance]]. During this period, the Guards also traveled to the [[Magistracy of Canopus]] to assist that nation against the [[Marian Hegemony]]. The commanding officer of the Prefectorate Guard at the time, ''[[Sang-shao]]'' [[Jorgen Nerekov]], was an accomplished engineer who consulted and assisted Victoria-based [[Shengli Arms]] with the design of the ''[[Jinggau]]'' [[BattleMech]]. Nerekov's involvement with Shengli was instrumental maintaining good relations between the CCAF and the manufacturer, also allowing the Prefectorate Guards to obtain the latest designs from both Shengli as well as [[Hellespont Industries]] on their homeworld of Sian.<ref name=FMCCp54/> ===FedCom Civil War Era=== ''Sang-shao'' Nerekov was involved in a mysterious research and development accident at the Shengli Arms facility on in [[3065]]. Details of what happened were kept classified, but it was known that Nerekov suffered cerebral hemorrhaging severe enough that he was rendered unfit to command the Guard, and was subsequently awarded the [[Cluster of Conspicuous Heroism]]. He was also turned down for the award known as the [[Baton of Illustrious Service]], making him the only Capellan Hussars commander not to be a recipient of this award.<ref name="FM:Up20">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 20, "Prefectorate Guard"</ref> Although Nerekov was unable to command the Guard after the accident he retained the honorary status of regimental commander; field command of the Guard passed to ''[[Zhong-shao]]'' [[Emile Nan Lowen]] with the assistance of the commander of the Third Battalion, [[Darla Inien]].<ref name="FM:Up20"/> ===Jihad=== During [[Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE]], the Prefectorate Guard was attacked by multiple [[AFFS]] units and reduced to slightly over one-third of its listed strength. They relocated to Victoria and began to rebuild using graduates from the [[Victoria Academy of Arms and Technology]] and the output of the decimated [[Shengli Arms]] factory.<ref name="frcc8">''Field Report: CCAF'', p. 8</ref> The unit was still in Victoria in [[3079]].<ref>''Field Report: CCAF'' , p. 8 "Regimental Status"</ref> === The Dark Age === After the [[Jihad]], the Prefectorate Guard were rotated away from Victoria and onto [[Sarna]], partly to act as a guard against future conflict with the [[Republic of the Sphere]] but also because the growing level of conflict between the Guard and the [[mercenary]] unit [[Lethal Injection]] was putting the security of Shengli Arms at risk. With one officer cashiered and an increasingly-incoherent ''Sang-shao'' Nerekov pushed into retirement, ''Sang-shao'' Nan Loen assumed formal command of the Guard; Loen enforced high standards of discipline and decorum within the Guard, and made it abundantly clear that the insubordination which had occurred under Nerekov wouldn't be tolerated under his command. By [[3085]], Loen had transferred seventeen [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] out of his command for failing to meet his standards.<ref name="FM:3085p">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 23, "Prefectorate Guard"</ref> In [[3113]], the Guard faced elements of [[Stone's Lament]] on Sarna. A Lament flanking maneuver was stopped cold by the Guard, extending the Lament's supply problems considerably and allowing the Guard to withdraw from Sarna in good order.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Capellan Confederation'', p. 20</ref> The Prefectorate Guard were defeated in the [[Victoria War]], and by [[3145]] the Guard's role had changed considerably. The Guard never really recovered from their Victoria War defeat, and at some point were rotated into garrison duty on Sarna in place of the [[Dynasty Guard]]. That didn't help the Guard recover; while the posting was a prestigious one, it also wasn't a particularly inspiring one for the [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] of the Guard, and the regiment became a posting for MechWarriors who were serving out the last years of their careers, and for whom those careers had been uninspiring but unblemished. As a result, the Guard's 'Mech forces became distinctly average. In contrast, the infantry attached to the Guard became highly proficient at the tasks involved in their new posting - urban combat, counterinsurgency work and personal security. With some of the highest-ranking members of the Capellan government being guarded by members of the Guard infantry on a regular basis a disconnect emerged between the 'Mech and infantry forces, with the infantry commander vocally espousing the opinion that the Guard's 'Mech forces were holding the infantry back.<ref name="FM:3145p30">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 30, "Prefectorate Guard"</ref> ==Officers== {| 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 Prefectorate Guard''' |- | [[Colonel]]||[[Nikolina Tatarinov]]||[[2788]]<ref name=TP:Tp9>''Turning Points: Tyrfing'', p. 9</ref> |- | Colonel||[[Sable Ruetiger]]||[[2828]]<ref name=TP:Op9>''Historical Turning Points: Orbisonia'', p. 9</ref> |- | Colonel||[[Pavel Ridzik]]||[[2990]]<ref name=HLp128>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 128, "Victor Hargreaves Profile"</ref> |- | Colonel||[[Braxton Gammon]]||[[3025]]<ref name=HLp78>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 78, "Prefectorate Guard Profile"</ref> |- | ''[[Sang-shao]]''||[[Jorgen Nerekov]]||[[3063]] -
