History

Star League Era

Active during the Star League era, the Twenty-sixth Avalon Hussars fought off a large pirate raid on Robsart in 2764. The Twenty-sixth was still rebuilding a year later, in large part from salvaged equipment belonging to the raiders - equipment of a distinctly Taurian nature.[1]

Succession Wars

The Twenty-sixth was active throughout the First Succession War, and by the end of the war was operating at a combat strength half a regiment short of its pre-War strength.[2] During the inter-war period the Twenty-sixth rebuilt to close to its original strength, but was one of the casualties of the Second Succession War - one of seven Avalon Hussars regiments to be destroyed during the conflict.[3]

Officers


Tactics

During the Star League era all of the Avalon Hussars were required to focus on being both flexible and mobile, with every regiment required to be capable of deploying within eight hours, although many of the Hussars struggled to actually achieve this.[4]
