As acting Commander General Kingsley eagerly accepted the invitation but most of the unit preferred to remain on New Home. The new recruits, natives of New Home, and the brutalities of the ''Zhanzheng de Guang'' made the unit more determined to free New Home those Liaoist guerrilla.

Reinforced by BattleMechs and state-of-the-art weapons from the [[Free Worlds League]], the newly christened [[New Home Regulars]], presented the 30th Lyran Guards with a formidable opposition that led to a stalemate.
