Unit Brief[edit]
The Basalt Protectorate Militia is one of the many militias raised by Word of Blake to defend the Word of Blake Protectorate. The unit was deployed in Basalt.[1]
History[edit]
In 3071 a raid by an unknown mercenary unit attempted to destroy a supposedly unguarded Word of Blake reeducational facility outside Rose City, but then retreated through the city when faced with elements of the Protectorate Militia 'Mechs and tanks. Although the mercenaries were able to reach their DropShip and escape, the militia was able to stop the mercenaries from causing any significant damage to the educational facility.[1]
The unit most probably died or surrendered at the end of the Jihad.[citation needed]
Officers[edit]

Tactics[edit]
Unknown.
Composition History[edit]
Unknown, but it has 'Mechs and tanks.[1]
Protectorate Militia Divisions were equipped with enough DropShip capacity for transportation, but not JumpShips.[2]
Rules[edit]
As long as a Protectorate Militia force is fighting on its homeworld and is acting as the scenario's Defender, the Protectorate Militia force receives the Force the Initiative and Off-Map Movement special abilities. If deployed as the Attacker in a scenario, the Protectorate Militia force loses its Force the Initiative ability, but retains its Off-Map Movement capability.
If deployed on a world other than its homeworld (such as an Epsilon Eridani force being deployed on Genoa), the Protectorate Militia force not only loses all of its special abilities, but also suffers a –2 Initiative modifier.
Although Blakist-based, Protectorate Militia forces may use standard Inner Sphere force arrangements (Lances, Companies, and Battalions) rather than Word of Blake force arrangements.[3]
