History

Formation

4th Succession War

In late August 3028 the High Command of the LCAF launched Operation Gotterdammerung, a massive offensive against the Draconis Combine, as part of this action the Fourth Skye Rangers engaged the Eleventh on the world Marfik[1].

The Eleventh maintains a relationship with the Cosby Myomer Research Firm on Vega. They use this relationship to obtain equipment outside the typical supply lines, as the Legions of Vega are not a high-priority unit for new materiel.[citation needed]

War of 3039


Ronin Wars


Clan Invasion


Operation Bulldog


Dominion War


Federated Suns Incursion


Jihad

During the Jihad the Word of Blake attacked Vega. The Eleventh Legion was based on the world, but when the Word struck in 3069 the combination of a lightning fast ground attack and orbital bombardments from Pocket WarShips proved too much for the Legion. Only two warriors survived.[2]

-3050, Tai-sa Yoshi Yamasaki[3].
-3059, Tai-sa Petros Sanvaldez[4].
