The Sirian Lancers have had a disproportionate effect on the history of the Free Worlds League since the end of the [[Fourth Succession War]]. [[Janos Marik]]'s decision to preemptively withdraw left the worlds of the Concordance in the hands of the nascent [[Federated Commonwealth]]. When [[Thomas Marik]] launched [[Operation GUERRERO]] in [[3057]], it stopped short of reclaiming those worlds. When an insane [[ComStar]] [[Precentor]], [[Alisendar Gyrn]], took control of [[Sirius]] and [[Procyon]] creating his own small stellar empire the [[Sirian Holds]], the Lancers threatened to invade, with or without support from the LCCC. The LCCC decided to aid the three regiments, providing the [[4th Free Worlds Legionnaires]] to support the three Sirian units. Together these forces liberated the worlds in [[3058]] to find "reeducation camps" and other atrocities.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 7</ref>

Angry at the [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] and the LCCC for not liberating their homeworlds sooner, the Lancers all but went their own way. The Sirian Lancers commanding officer, Colonel Ginny Ebaugh, stopped going through [[FWLM]] channels for replacement parts and supplies. The supplies needed by several 'Mech regiments still came in, but no one could identify the source of the matériel. In addition, most Sirian Lancer units at this time were housed in separate bases away from other FWLM forces.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 154</ref>
