The unit was deployed in [[Yorii]]. As of [[3075]] it was the only unit raised from this planet.<ref name="JS:BDp103">''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 103: "Protectorate Militia Deployment</ref> ==History== Yorii was one of four worlds captured by the [[Word of Blake]] between the 19th and 21st of June [[3068]]. The Blakists attacked using both conventional forces and a combination of biological, chemical and nuclear weapons to complete their conquest, forcibly integrating Yorii into the Word of Blake Protectorate.<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> Several bomb blasts (determined to be large "dirty bombs") were detected in the heart of Neo-Tokyo, devastating hundreds of city blocks, destroying several power nodes, and severing two major highway arterials over the Shokaku Ocean. As emergency crews responded to the massive disaster, waves of unidentified [[aerospace fighter]]s dropped several bombs on the 60-million acre fisheries belonging to Kishi Amalgamated, releasing a chemical agent that begun to systematically destroy the fertile gorii-tuna awaiting harvesting there. As the [[3rd Night Stalkers|Third Night Stalkers]] began to muster, the incoming [[DropShip]]s unleashed a devastating missile attack on the island base, destroying it with multiple nuclear blasts and sending a tsunami across the Minamoto Sea that devastated the coastal croplands near Neo-Tokyo. It is unknown at this time if any Night Stalker units survived the bombardment. The death toll is estimated to be in the tens of thousands, though the greater damage is to the massive fisheries that cover almost seventy percent of the planet's oceans.<ref name=BFEWMD>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [05/07/3068]: "Blakist Forces Employ WMDs on Altair, Yorii"''</ref> The Blakist occupation reversed the marginal rebuilding that Yorii had managed to achieve during the Succession Wars<ref name=DARWp254>''Dark Age: Republic Worlds (3130)'', p. 254: "Yorii"</ref> the invading forces were the [[14th Division (Word of Blake)|Fourteenth Militia Division]], who attacked under false colors; while they engaged the [[Third Night Stalkers]] with conventional weapons, elements of the Word of Blake's [[ROM]] department contaminated many of the reservoirs across the planet with a biological weapon. Millions of people were killed by direct exposure to the biological agent in the water; the contaminated water then worked its way into a number of irrigation systems, contaminating countless square kilometers of farmland and poisoning the crops grown there. Millions more died from eating the contaminated food grown in this tainted cropland before the planetary government burned every affected field, but the ensuing famine caused by lack of crops caused even more of the population to die.<ref name="TCp160">''Total Chaos'', pp. 160–161: "Yorii"</ref> When in November [[3076]] forces from [[Devlin Stone|Devlin Stone's]] allied coalition forces arrived, they discovered two Blakist reeducation camps from which the inhabitants, who turned out to be [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] warriors, had already freed themselves from their captors, the Yorii Protectorate Militia Division forces. The Clansmen were presumed to have originally been prisoners captured by the Draconis Combine during either the battle for [[Huntress]], [[Operation BULLDOG]]<ref name="JHS:Tp23">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 23: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> or even the [[Battle of Tukayyid (3052)|Battle of Tukayyid]]. The Smoke Jaguars were using Blakist equipment, and were encountered in various small groups, each of which challenged the forces from [[Stone's Lament]] and the [[First Kell Hounds]] to honor duels. Evidence discovered later indicated that the Blakists had deliberately abandoned the Smoke Jaguar prisoners in the hope that Stone's Coalition forces would destroy them; instead, Stone welcomed the former Clansmen into his forces.<ref name="TCp160"/> After the liberation of Yorii Stone led most of his forces away from Yorii, leaving behind a conventional garrison comprised of Lyran volunteers.<ref name="TCp160"/> It was reported in the Lyran media by [[Myra Kellison]] of [[Tharkad Media Associates]]<ref name="JHS:Tp28"/> in late March [[3077]] that Blakist forces, led by the [[4th Division (Word of Blake)|Fourth Militia Division]], had assaulted Yorii and recaptured the planet after destroying the defending garrison forces,<ref name="TCp160"/><ref name="JHS:Tp28"/> which consisted largely of [[Lyran Alliance]] infantry and armor.<ref name="JHS:Tp28">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 28: "Just a Setback"</ref> The attack by the Fourth Militia incensed [[Clan Ghost Bear]] when they learned that a Ghost Bear merchant convoy bringing supplies intended for the Coalition garrison had been destroyed; the actions of the Blakists drove the Ghost Bears into a collective fury because of the cowardly manner in which the convoy had been attacked, and the entire of [[Kappa Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Kappa Galaxy]] was redeployed to not only recapture Yorii but also to root out every single Blakist nest anywhere on the planet.

If deployed as the Attacker in a scenario, the Protectorate Militia force loses its Force the Initiative ability, but retains its Off-Map Movement capability. If deployed on a world other than its homeworld (such as an Epsilon Eridani force being deployed on Genoa), the Protectorate Militia force not only loses all of its special abilities, but also suffers a –2 Initiative modifier. Although Blakist-based, Protectorate Militia forces may use standard Inner Sphere force arrangements (Lances, Companies, and Battalions) rather than Word of Blake force arrangements.<ref name="JS:BDp143">''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 103: "Rules Annex"</ref> </div> ==Reference== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[List of Solaris Broadcasting Co. articles#Blakist Forces Employ WMDs on Altair.2C Yorii|BattleCorps Solaris Broadcasting Co., 05/07/3068: "Blakist Forces Employ WMDs on Altair, Yorii"]]'' * ''[[Dark Age: Republic Worlds (3130)]]'' * ''[[Jihad: Final Reckoning]]'' * ''[[Jihad Hot Spots: Terra]]'' * ''[[Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents]]'' * ''[[Total Chaos]]'' [[Category:Word of Blake Protectorate Militia Commands|Yorii Protectorate Militia]]
