History[edit]
The Dark Age[edit]
Like its sister regiment, the Fourteenth, the Fifteenth Principes Guards was a newly-formed command in 3145 - the newest regiment in the Principes Guards brigade, in fact. Whereas the Fourteenth had been raised on a single world, the Fifteenth drew on recruits from three different systems when mustering - Asta, Procyon and Sirius. The first commanding officer of the Fifteenth, Colonel Álvaro Dávila, was an experienced warrior and a former Knight, and Dávila promptly began training the Fifteenth to act as a mobile troubleshooting formation.[1]
Shortly after being raised the Fifteenth was assigned to the planet Denebola for training, in the hope that the unique demographics found on the planet would help season the green unit.[1]
