After the [[Reunification War]] IV Corps was destroyed. It was only rebuilt by the TDF after colonization of several systems took place. These systems built a planetary militia for defense, and four of these units were eventually assigned BattleMechs. These BattleMech equipped units became the Dumassas Legionnaires, a four-regiment brigade that the TDF used to rebuild IV Corps. At the time it was the newest corps in the TDF and the 'Mechs used were some of the oldest in the Concordat. Despite this, they were effective against bandit and pirate raids.<ref name=fr2765p26>''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 26</ref>

As part of the [[Trinity Alliance]] IV Corps was sent to the [[Capellan Confederation]] as the Taurians' main military contribution.<ref>''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 51</ref> The unit faced several serious conflicts during their tour of duty with the [[CCAF]], and was heavily damaged. After a partial refit on [[Victoria (CC)|Victoria]] the IV Corps units returned to Concordat space in time for the latest round of fighting with the Federated Suns. The Pleiades Lancers lost all cohesion after that assault, and was combined with the Pleiades Hussars. The Second Taurian Lancers were withdrawn to guard the border. [[Longwood's Bluecoats]] was transferred into IV Corps to bring it back up to strength.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 193</ref>
