History

Formation


4th Succession War


War of 3039

The Ninth Regulars were stationed on Schwartz during the entire war and saw no active combat.[1]

Ronin Wars


Clan Invasion

The Ninth faced the Smoke Jaguar's Nineteenth Striker Cluster on Schwartz in March 3050. In this engagement, Tai-sa Graham sacrificed his AeroSpace Fighters, Infantry, and Armor units to allow two battalions of 'Mechs to escape. The DCMS was not pleased.[2] The Nineteenth did follow the rules of zellbrigen with the Ninth however, when they saw the Ninth trying to behave honorably. The Ninth moved the fighting off the plains of Schwartz and into a nearby city. Tai-sa Graham fought a single Trial against Star Colonel Thilla Showers that allowed most of the Ninth's 'Mech units to escape.[3]

Operation Bulldog


Dominion War

During the Dominion War, the Ninth Pesht Regulars were posted to Idlewind, and were one of the first commands hit by the Ghost Bear forces. Their commanding officer was killed early in the fighting and the Ninth lost all unit cohesion. More than 90% of the unit's soldiers were killed, and the remaining troops were assigned to other commands to make up personnel losses[4].

Officers

In 3025 the commanding officer was General Fyodor Markt.[5]

As of 3050 to 3062, the Ninth is commanded by Tai-sa Mark Graham. Graham has spent years granting favors and building a political power base. Tai-sa Graham was killed on Idlewind during the Dominion War.[6][2][4]

Tactics

Tai-sa Graham used his infantry and armor resources as "bait" for enemy units, which are then hit by the regiment's 'Mechs. This understandably causes tension between the different segments of the unit.[2]
