History

Prior to the Fourth Succession War the Thirty-sixth Lyran Guards raided several Free Worlds League systems from their baseworld.[1] Stationed on Cavanaugh II in 3025[2], the most daring raid was launched against Tamarind in 3012. Several dropping 'Mechs were engaged by AeroSpace Fighters and tumbled out of control into the world's atmosphere. Most of these 'Mechs were destroyed, but one skipped off the atmosphere three times and was rescued by Marik fighters.[1]

In 3050 the Thirty-sixth was stationed on Tsingtao.[3]

Prior to the formation of the Lyran Alliance, the 36th was stationed on Tsingtao. Obeying the "come home" order, they left the Capellan March world and were assigned to Hesperus II. They established a good working relationship with the 15th Lyran Guards.

Choosing to remain loyal to the Lyran Alliance as a whole, the 36th initially refused to declare for either Katrina or Victor Steiner-Davion during the FedCom Civil War, instead seeing heavy action in opposing the Free Skye attempt to take Hesperus II. The 36th played a decisive role in that battle, coming close to eliminating the legendary Maria Esteban.[4]

Jihad

The unit was overwhelmed by the Knights of the Inner Sphere on Preston during the FWLM counterattack. The 36th Guards had no other choice but to surrender. Their equipment was confiscated by the LCCC and the soldiers were held as prisoners until the end of the hostilities. [5]

Officers

In 3025 the commanding officer was Colonel Emily Stevens.[2]

Marshal Harold Andrews commanded the unit in 3050[3] and in 3058 he chose to join an AFFS unit rather than abandon his world. Approximately 100 troops went with him.[1]

In 3062 the commanding officer was Leutnant-General Peter Zambos, who took command in 3058, and he is still in command of the unit in 3067.[1][6]

Tactics

The command often used orbital drops to assault enemy positions when the opponent is unprepared.[1]
