One of these planets was the Mounted Fusiliers' garrison world of [[Vestallas]] with the [[2nd Dieron Regulars]] arriving under SLDF Colors. The Dieron's Commander, ''[[Tai-sa]]'' Jim Nicolas, ordered the Fusiliers and the Vestallas [[Home Guard]] to disarm. The [[SIMC]] units refused and began fighting the Regulars. This later would be referred to as the beginning of the [[Capellan-St. Ives War]]. Reinforcements were deployed to help reinforce the Fusiliers' position but the stalemate ended with the arrival of [[1st McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. The elite former mercenaries of House Liao forced the Fusiliers to quit Vestallas for [[Armaxa]] to rest and refit. By March of 3062, they were on [[Nashuar]] fighting the [[2nd McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. By July of 3062, they were on St. Ives fighting [[Ishara's Grenadiers]]. Around September of 3062 saw them on [[Ambergrist]] engaging the [[2nd Confederation Reserve Cavalry|2nd]] and [[6th Confederation Reserve Cavalry]]. Finally, the St. Ives's High Command ordered the Fusiliers to relieve the beleaguered defenders of [[St. Loris]]. The burn into the St. Loris system proved to be problematic, where its 84th Fusilier Air Wing was virtually wiped out by Capellan forces. Fighting on the planet with Confederation forces was conducted in a series of hit and fade actions, where the Fusiliers tried to tie up [[CCAF]] units without an all-out engagement. Near the end of the conflict the Fusiliers were outnumbered and out of supplies. Feeling she had no choice, Colonel Aliesha Carling ordered the unit to surrender to Liao forces rather than the unit being destroyed. Their surrender of St. Loris was a blow to the Compact's war efforts but it allowed the unit to survive.

The Fusiliers accepted the offer and became a reserve Regiment in the newly formed [[St. Ives Sentinels]] brigade.

The invasion of [[Lee]] was a desperate attempt to divert the [[AFFS]] from its massive offensive against [[Tikonov]]. The operation was a success in both taking Lee and holding Tikonov. The Mounted Fusiliers, [[Bullard's Armored Cavalry]], Hampton's Hessens, [[Kincade's Rangers]], [[Kerr's Intruders]], Justinia's Cuirassiers and [[Stapleton's Iron Hand]] then raided [[Aosia]] where the Fusilier's Light 'Mechs were leading elements, used as forward scouts against Davion forces and were deployed to lure them into ambushes.

In [[3061]], six St. Ives Compact planets came under occupation of [[Star League Defense Force]] Peacekeepers following the attempted assassination of [[First Lord]] [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] by the [[Blackwind Lancers]]. One of these planets was the Mounted Fusiliers' garrison world of [[Vestallas]] with the [[2nd Dieron Regulars]] arriving under SLDF Colors. The Dieron's Commander, ''[[Tai-sa]]'' Jim Nicolas, ordered the Fusiliers and the Vestallas [[Home Guard]] to disarm. The [[SIMC]] units refused and began fighting the Regulars. This later would be referred to as the beginning of the [[Capellan-St. Ives War]]. Reinforcements were deployed to help reinforce the Fusiliers' position but the stalemate ended with the arrival of [[1st McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. The elite former mercenaries of House Liao forced the Fusiliers to quit Vestallas for [[Armaxa]] to rest and refit. By March of 3062, they were on [[Nashuar]] fighting the [[2nd McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. By July of 3062, they were on St. Ives fighting [[Ishara's Grenadiers]]. Around September of 3062 saw them on [[Ambergrist]] engaging the [[2nd Confederation Reserve Cavalry|2nd]] and [[6th Confederation Reserve Cavalry]]. Finally, the St. Ives's High Command ordered the Fusiliers to relieve the beleaguered defenders of [[St. Loris]]. The burn into the St. Loris system proved to be problematic, where its 84th Fusilier Air Wing was virtually wiped out by Capellan forces. Fighting on the planet with Confederation forces was conducted in a series of hit and fade actions, where the Fusiliers tried to tie up [[CCAF]] units without an all-out engagement. Near the end of the conflict the Fusiliers were outnumbered and out of supplies. Feeling she had no choice, Colonel Aliesha Carling ordered the unit to surrender to Liao forces rather than the unit being destroyed. Their surrender of St. Loris was a blow to the Compact's war efforts but it allowed the unit to survive. | In [[3061]], six St. Ives Compact planets came under occupation of [[Star League Defense Force]] Peacekeepers following the attempted assassination of [[First Lord]] [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] by the [[Blackwind Lancers]].

On 28 July [[3069]], the Mounted Fusiliers attacked Combat Command Gamma of the [[2nd Janissaries]] on [[Warlock]]. This 2nd Janissaries sub-unit had chosen to side with Duke Hasek and destroyed the loyalist 2nd Ranger Auxiliary regiment stationed alongside them. After surrounding the planetary capital, the Fusiliers drove the 2nd Janissaries into the center of the city.
