With familial ties to the Rubinsky's Light Horse, Rubinsky's Renegades is a small but surprisingly successful mercenary unit.
History
The Renegades was formed from the ashes of the Grover's Heavy Guard, a mercenary company employed by the Draconis Combine in the late 3050's. Launching a raid against Clan Smoke Jaguar in 3057, the Heavy Guard's commander ignored the advice of the newly recruited Maxophilia Rubinsky and walked his unit straight into the waiting guns of a Jaguar Binary. When he was killed and the executive officer faltered, Maxophilia immediately took command and led the unit to a more defensible position, succeeding in defeating the Clan unit and escaping with half its original strength.
Over the next year, Rubinsky rebuilt and trained her demi-company constantly, resulting in a string of successful raids against the Smoke Jaguars. As of October 3059, the relatively young unit was stationed on Xinyang and could boast a B- Dragoon Rating.
Officers
Captain of the Renegades, Maxophilia Rubinsky is the estranged daughter of Marko Rubinsky, modern commander of Rubinsky's Light Horse. Initially training under her father, Maxophilia attended a small MechWarrior academy in the Tikonov Reaches before serving a term with the 4th Davion Guards and eventually rejoining the Light Horse. She left that unit after a heated argument with her father on who was best suited to succeed him, her natural gift for leadership and talent at tactics and strategy shown to good advantage in her salvaging of the Heavy Guard.
Tactics
The Renegades are specialized in close quarter combat and fighting against superior forces, preferring limiting terrain but equally adept on open ground.
