Jepso's Jaguars were a mercenary unit operating during the FedCom Civil War.[1]
History[edit]
The future Jepso's Jaguars were founded by Tanik Jepso. With a storied career that saw her working for half a dozen mercenary forces, including a small stint with the Eridani Light Horse, the free spirited Jepso ultimately chose to forge her own destiny, founding and leading her own mercenary unit.[1]
During the FedCom Civil War the Jepso's Jaguars was one of the many smaller commands to benefit from the bitter fighting between halves of the Federated Commonwealth, securing a seemingly easy contract to defend the Capellan March world of Stein's Folly against any possible Capellan Confederation attempt to take advantage of the sundering FedCom's preoccupation, despite the lack of evidence and exceed low odds the Confederation would strike the world. Unbeknownst to the Jaguars the greatest threat would come from within after Jepso hired one MechWarrior Jane in July 3065, in part because of the highly skilled young woman's advanced new Hellspawn but also after hitting it off with Jepso. In reality their newest member was in fact pirate Greta Halperin, whose modus operandi was to infiltrate small mercenary commands to learn their strengths and weaknesses.[1]
On 17 October 3065 while on a routine patrol in the forests of the Halcion Highlands, "Jane" led Jepso's Jaguars into a well-laid ambush set by her pirates, turning her "Paralyzer"'s four arm-mounted medium lasers onto to the weakened back of Captain Jepso's Wolverine, killing the unit's commander and allowing the pirates to gut the mercenary command in short order. The Jepso's Jaguars would be one of a dozen small mercenary commands to fall pray to Greta Halperin's tactics, the pirates salvaging the unit's equipment as booty.[1]
