In [[3025]] the unit was stationed on [[Thessalonika]].<ref name=HKDCp135/> During the [[Fourth Succession War]] the Thirteenth Rasalhague Regulars faced the [[8th Donegal Guards|Eighth]] and [[Twelfth Donegal Guards]] and the [[Tyr Regiment]] on [[Stanzach]].<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 65</ref> They successfully repelled the Eighth Donegal's attempt to take a critical bridge, but for some reason they were ordered off-world by the [[DCMS]].<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 66</ref> Enraged by the order to retreat, ''Sho-sho'' Fjolek took the Thirteenth to [[Tamar]], assaulting the world to regain his unit's honor. The attack was unexpected and the Thirteenth was able to inflict serious damage on the world, but the arrival of the [[Grave Walkers]] mercenary regiments stopped the assault. The Grave Walker units offered the Thirteenth a chance to surrender, but the Combine unit fought almost to the last man, inflicting heavy casualties on the defenders.<ref name="NAISFSWv2p67">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 67</ref>
 
 
 
The Thirteenth was rebuilt at some point, managing to achieve Veteran status by 3034. Like many regiments of the Rasalhague Regulars they invaded the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]] following their independence and were declared Ronin. Their invasion route took them from their base on [[Thessalonika]] to [[Spittal]], [[Vipaava]], [[New Oslo]], [[New Bergen]], and finally [[Unzmarkt]] where they were destroyed in September by the [[First Genyosha]]. Ten MechWarriors committed ''seppuku'' on Vipaava and their ‘Mechs remained undiscovered until Rasalhague resistance located them to use against [[Clan Ghost Bear]] occupying forces.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', pp. 120-121</ref><ref name="AAB">''Airs Above the Ground''</ref>
