History

Formation

The 12th Ghost regiment was formed to keep the 11th Ghost regiment under control. The 11th Ghost, though generally loyal to the Combine, might engage in irresponsible behavior that would lead to trouble. By placing the 12th Ghost on the same world, the DCMS High Command hoped that the 11th would focus on their common enemy rather than cause trouble.[1]

Ronin Wars

War of 3039

Clan Invasion

Operation Bulldog

Dominion War

The 12th was on Numki briefly, skirmishing with both the 11th Ghost and the Ghost Bear forces.[2]

Federated Suns Incursion

The 12th assisted other DCMS forces in retaking Al Na'ir[3], and stayed on world as the garrison force.[4]

Jihad

After the Jihad the Ghost Regiments were officially disbanded.


Officers

Tai-sa Maria Yoriama leads the command, but must fear her own troops. She has escaped three assassination attempts. Rumors suggests these action were taken because she broke all connections with her yakuza clan.[5]

In 3067 Tai-sa Mick Kodai commanded the 12th Ghost.[6]

Tactics

As a new created unit the command must find their own style to fight.
