Clan Invasion
During the Clan Invasion, the 25th fought Clan Wolf on Sevren in 3051, and later Clan Jade Falcon on Colmar. They managed to score some initial successes, but where forced to flee evacuating civilians during the withdrawal. They were stationed on the Jade Falcon border after the Battle of Tukayyid.[1]
The Jihad
The 25th served as a part of Operation SCOUR, the allied coalition to liberate the worlds of the Word of Blake Protectorate in 3077 and 3078, and survived in good order - Myra Kellison, a Lyran journalist syndicated by INN reported that the Guards were at full strength in mid-August 3078 as the coalition forces travelled towards Terra.[2] For the invasion of Terra the 25th made up a part of Task Force SICKLE, the Task Force assigned to destroy the Blakist SDS command centers and eliminate the Word of Blake command and control systems. More specifically, the 25th served under the direct command of Commanding General Devlin Stone as part of a mixed brigade alongside Stone's Lament, the 3rd Free Worlds Legionnaires, the 7th Pesht Regulars, Ryuken-ni and the Ghost Legion mercenary unit, with Hilton Head as their primary target during the initial attacks.[3]
Officers
As of 3050 to 3054 the commanding officer was Leftenant General Gilda Felra.[4][5]
As of 3062 to 3071, the commanding officer was Marshal Rudolph Geiger, promoted later as Leftenant-General and held the rank in 3085 .[6][7][8][9]
Tactics
The command uses the fast elements to catch the opponent and circle around them to set a trap. Another tactic is use commando troopers to cut the communication and light mechs forces for rear assaults.[6]
