History
Destruction
The Falcon Guards Cluster of Clan Jade Falcon arrived in the Twycross system on June 2nd 3050 and immediately issued a batchall to the defending TMM. Not knowing how to respond the TMM's commanding officer Leftenant-General John Cicero refused the challenge.[2] The militia unit put up a fanatical struggle against the Clan invaders. After three weeks of fighting, survivors of the Twycross TMM withdrew from the planet. However, though losing the planet, they brought out intelligence to help the AFFC High Command to develop strategies to overcome the Clans.[1][3]

Notes
- The unit consisted of several regiments, one of 'Mechs, and an unknown number of armour and infantry regiments.
- It had a full Regiment of Mechs, though after the first days of combat, when the unit was defending Camora city, only one Battalion of the unit was left.
- Two mech lances had been enhanced with ECM equipment and were used to gather critical information on the Falcon Guard tactics and also on clan equipment.[6]
