The 19th had not been reactivated as a command by [[2765]].<ref name="FR2765p13">''Field Report 2765: LCAF'', p. 13-14, "Lyran Guards" - note the absence of the 19th in the Lyran Guard rolls.</ref> − − The 19th was reactivated in [[2785]] using personnel the Lyran Commonwealth recruited from the [[368th BattleMech Division|368th BattleMech Division]],<ref name="FSWp33">''First Succession War'', p. 33, "Those Left Behind (Continued)"</ref> formerly a part of the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[LXV Corps (Star League)|LXV Corps]] within the [[19th Army (Star League)|Nineteenth Army]].<ref name=SL157>''The Star League'', p. 157, "Nineteenth"</ref> − − === Succession Wars === − In [[3009]] an attack on Alula Australis was launched by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]], who deployed the 19th Lyran Guards and - at the request of [[Cranston Snord]] - the mercenary unit [[Snord's Irregulars]]. Snord's interest in Alula Australis was a collection of portraits by the famous artist Davials which had reportedly been hidden there. The attack ran afoul of a hidden fighter base; the Lyran forces were cut off from their DropShips by the [[405th Aerospace Wing|405th Aerospace Wing]] (also called the 405th Fighter Wing), while heavy ground units wore them down. Snord's Irregulars found the hidden fighter base and managed to destroy enough fighters to end the enemy air superiority, so that their own DropShips could pick them up.The 405th Aerospace Wing was notable for including several rare [[Land-Air 'Mech]]s, namely a ''[[Phoenix Hawk LAM]]'' and three ''[[Stinger LAM]]''s.<ref>''Cranston Snord's Irregulars'', pp. 34-35 (Scenario "The Stumble Raid")</ref> − − === Operation REVIVAL === − The 19th Lyran Guards were stationed on [[Baxter]] in [[3050]] when the [[Clan Invasion]] began.<ref name=20yr26>''20 Year Update'', p. 26</ref> In December [[3051]] the Nineteenth Lyran Guards were stationed on [[Jabuka]] alongside the [[Seventeenth Donegal Guards]] [[RCT]] when [[Clan Steel Viper]] attacked. The Steel Vipers deployed [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Steel Viper)|Alpha Galaxy]] to capture the planet in what became one of the most extensive battles of the Fifth Wave of the invasion to be fought by the Steel Vipers.<ref name="ICp89">''Invading Clans'', p. 89, "Jabuka"</ref> − − The 17th and the 19th had split into two forces in an effort to divide the Steel Viper forces, but the Steel Vipers instead used massive artillery barrages to hammer both RCTs before sending in teams of [[Elemental]]s to sow further chaos. When Alpha Galaxy then attached with [['Mech]]s and [[aerospace fighter]]s both [[Federated Commonwealth]] commands were disorganized and confused. The Seventeenth barely managed to escape Alpha Galaxy's attack at Valairy Ridge; the Nineteenth attempted to retreat into the passes that wound through the Caspern Mountains, but were pursued by the Steel Viper forces. Alpha Galaxy caught up with the surviving elements of the Nineteenth at Alaeni Falls and destroyed the remains of the Nineteenth, winning their first large-scale battle against forces from the [[Inner Sphere]].<ref name="ICp89"/> ==Officers== ==Officers== − {| class="wikitable"+ As of 3025 the Commanding Officer is Leutnant-General Danny Walters − |- − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command − |- − | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 19th Lyran Guards''' − |- − |[[Leutnant-General]]||[[Danny Walters]]||[[3025]]<ref name=hs120>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 120 (PDF version), "Unit Deployment Table"</ref> − |- − |[[Marshal (rank)|Marshal]]||[[Tommy Gahertty|Tommy "Too Old" Gahertty]]||[[3035]] - [[3050]]<ref name=RIp28>''Rhonda's Irregulars'', p. 28</ref><ref name=20yr26/> − |} ==Tactics== ==Tactics== − Unknown. − − ==Composition History== − === 2786 - 2821 === − '''19th Lyran Guards''' (Veteran/Questionable)<ref name="FSWp139">''First Succession War'', p. 139, "Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces (LCAF)"</ref> − :- At this point in time the Eighteenth were a heavy regiment stationed on [[Wyatt] and were at full strength.<ref name="FSWp139"/>In 2821 the unit was below forty percent strength.<ref name="FSWp139"/> − === 2830 === − '''19th Lyran Guards''' (Regiment/Regular/Questionable) <ref name=2ndSSp99>''Second Succession War'', p. 99 </ref> − : Note: At this point in time the assault-weight unit was stationed on [[Wyatt]] with an operational readiness of 76 percent. <ref name=2ndSSp99/> − === 2864 === − '''19th Lyran Guards''' (Regiment/Regular./Questionable) <ref name=2ndSSp99/> − : Note: At this point in time the heavy-weight unit was stationed on [[Wyatt]] with an operational readiness of 33 percent. <ref name=2ndSSp99/> − ===3025=== − '''19th Lyran Guards''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable)<ref name=hs120/><br> − :*CO: Leutnant General Danny Walters<br> − :Note: At this point in time the unit was stationed on [[Alarion]]. − ===3040=== + ==Composition== − '''19th Lyran Guards''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable)<ref name = HWo3039p137/>+ RCT status at the time of their destruction. − :Note: At this point in time the command was stationed on [[Baxter]]. <ref name = HWo3039p137 >''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 137 </ref> − − ===3050=== − '''19th Lyran Guards RCT''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable) <ref name=20yr26/> − :* CO: [[Marshal (rank)|''Marshal'']] Tommy 'Too Old' Gahertty<ref name=20yr26/> − − : Note: At this point in time the unit was stationed on [[Baxter]]. <ref name=20yr26/> ==Notes== ==Notes== Homeworld [[Alarion]] Homeworld [[Alarion]] + ==Reference== ==Reference== − <references />+ *[[House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)]] − + *[[Invading Clans]] − ==Bibliography== − * ''[[20 Year Update]]'' − * ''[[Cranston Snord's Irregulars (scenario pack)]]'' − * ''[[Field Report 2765: LCAF]]'' − * ''[[First Succession War (sourcebook)|First Succession War]]'' − * ''[[Historical: War of 3039]]'' − * ''[[House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)]]'' − * ''[[Invading Clans]]'' − * ''[[Objective Raids]]'' − * ''[[Rhonda's Irregulars (scenario pack)|Rhonda's Irregulars]]'' − * ''[[Second Succession War (sourcebook)|Second Succession War]]'' − [[Category: Lyran Commands|Lyran Guards, 19th]] + [[Category:Lyran Commands|Lyran Guards, 19th]] − [[Category: Federated Commonwealth Commands|Lyran Guards, 19th]]
