History

The Iron Guard was charged with the defense of Huntress, the homeworld of Clan Smoke Jaguar.[1] The galaxy was wiped out by Task force Serpent in 3060.

Being a Solahma unit, the Iron Guards only received minimum equipment, and consisted mainly of conventional infantry. Galaxy Commander Benjamin Howell regarded this as absolutely inadequate, especially as it was one of the two galaxies defending Huntress. As Khan Lincoln Osis was unwilling to help, and virtually all new material was needed to refresh the front-line units, Benjamin Howell set up an illegal scheme: he made connections with the scientist caste and was able to bolster his troops with Star League-Mechs, Clan-Mech prototypes and Inner Sphere-Mechs (originally designated to be studied by the scientist caste). He even single handedly ordered the creation of additional sibkos and weapon research programs. [2] For these actions, he was later executed, but the Iron Guards remained upgraded.[3]

Officers

Galaxy Commander Benjamin Howell commanded the Iron Guards until his arrest in May 3058 [4], Star Colonel Logan Wirth took temporary command on the 3rd May 3058 [5] until he was replaced by Russou Howell on 2nd March 3059.[6]

Composition

3059

Notes

The Iron Guards are referred to as Zeta Galaxy in 3058. [7] However, Zeta Galaxy was in the Inner Sphere in 3051 [8] and still there in 3059. [9]
