History

In 3025, the 15th were stationed on Lost. [1]

During September 3062 the 15th was split between Thorin and Muphrid to put down pro-Davion rebellions. The heavy-handed tactics used brought them into conflict with the Thorin FTM, triggering an outright rebellion by the militia unit. The 15th was ultimately destroyed in 3063 by rebels (the 1st Thorin Regiment) led by Archer Christifori. The unit was scheduled for rebuild but the process was interrupted when Jade Falcons attacked in 3064. The 15th Arcturan Guards disobeyed their orders and joined the defenders under General Adam Steiner.
