History[edit]

Fought on Arcadia against Clan Star Adder's Mu Provisional Galaxy during the Burrock Absorption.[2]

They arrived in Barcella in 3070 led by saKhan Boques and Loremaster Campbell to assist Clan Fire Mandrill fighting against Clan Ice Hellion.[3] They then moved to Circe. Here they were engaged by Star Adder forces who inflicted heavy casualties on them.[4]

On 20th December 3071 the Guards dropped on to Paxon an engaged Clan Coyote over a former Clan Wolf BattleMech and ProtoMech factory. Unfortunately during the fighting the Guards stumbled into a previously unknown Clan Diamond Shark civilian encampment accidentally killing over 600 people. The incensed Shark defenders launched themselves in to a three way fight, from which only two stars of Guard ProtoMechs survived. As they retreated the surviving Guards were cut down by half by the surviving Coyote warriors.[1]
