Donegal Guards

Revision as of 06:06, 13 April 2010 by Neufeld (talk | contribs) (→‎FedCom Civil War: Found the unit tables, updated paragraph a bit.)

Template:InfoBoxStateUnit The Donegal Guards predate the formation of the Lyran Commonwealth. Originally the defensive force of the Protectorate of Donegal, the Donegal Guards are a large and well supplied unit, mostly because the Protectorate of Donegal was not ravaged by the Succession Wars. Donegal Guards fight with dogged determination. At its zenith, the brigade numbered 20 BattleMech regiments and an addition 80 regiments of conventional forces.

History


FedCom Civil War

The whole brigade sided with Katherine Steiner-Davion, five regiments where destroyed in the conflict.[1] (Note that FM:Updates isn't very clear on which ones counts as destroyed, other than the 13th. Possible candidates for the rest based on strength are 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th and 11th, which all are down to 5-20% in strength.)[2]

Jihad

As of mid-Jihad, the 2nd and the 7th are the only active regiments.[3]
