After its victory on Camlann, the unit was ordered by [[General]] [[Nondi Steiner]] to reinforce [[Third Royal Guards]] on [[Buckminster]].  The unit arrived on December 2nd to assist [[Lieutenant-Colonel]] [[Roman Steiner]] with the [[Sixth Arkab Legion]], whom his Third Royals had been keeping at bay.  The Twentieth Arcturan trapped the Combine unit between their heavier 'Mech forces and Third Royal's [[Fortress|artillery armed]] DropShips.  The Sixth Arkab was devastated and its survivors managed to retreat from the city of Elvidner.

The Combine's commanding general of the planet, General [[Goshi Tengwan]] withdrew his [[Second Sword of Light]] and other forces to the capital.  General Tengwan evacuated important documents and personnel from the planet under the Second Sword's fighter cover.  Lt. General Steiner launched sorties against the city, taking advantage of lack of aerospace fighter cover.  These actions began the four month siege of Buckminster City.<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 55: "Buckminster" - 20th Arcturan Guards involvement in the battle for the planet</ref>  By the 11th of December, the Third Royal's [[First Provisional Water Navy]] helped to complete the blockade of the capital.

During this time, the Twentieth Arcturan had been in pursuit of elements of the Sixth Arkab which were operating in northern regions.  General Steiner recalled the Twentieth Arcturan in May [[3029]], only leaving attached conventional infantry and combat vehicles to keep an eye on the Sixth Arkab.

General Steiner directed the Twentieth Arcturans and his Third Royals to attack Buckminster City on June 1st. The Third Royal began entering the city until they were ambushed by hidden elements of the Second Sword. This allowed for the Sixth Arkab to break through Twentieth's screening force and plunge into rear lines of the Arcturans.  Steiner pulled some of his city forces to try to wheel around to assist in the sudden attack on the Arcturan rear lines.  This is when Second Sword committed to assault on Lyran forces.

This assault routed the Third Royals from the city, leaving both the Twentieth Arcturans and the Third Royals on high ground trying to defend themselves.  Within three days, the Twentieth and remaining Lyran forces withdrew from the planet.<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', pp. 72–73: "Buckminster" - 20th Arcturans and 3rd Royal Guards lose battle for the planet</ref>

In early [[3050]], the Twentieth Arcturans were stationed on [[Aubisson]] during the [[Clan Invasion]].  The world came under attacked by [[DCMS]] forces in what became one last border invasion between the Federated Commonwealth and Combine before the ancient rivals agreed to an informal truce.<ref name=FMLAp59>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'', p. 59: "20th Arcturan Guards Unit Profile"</ref>

The Combine forces consisted of the [[Second Legion of Vega]] and [[Fifth Amphigean Light Assault Group|Fifth Amphigean LAG]].  As the Arcturans fought viciously with Kurita forces, casualties on Clan warfront grew for both Great Houses.  Orders to withdraw arrived for both sides as the Clan front grew in danger. Though he did not violate his orders at any point, Kincaid was replaced by Marshal [[Alden Gray]], a veteran of the Royal Guards. While the unit initially resented their new commander, Gray eventually won their respect through quiet competence.<ref name=FMLAp59/>

The Twentieth stayed on [[Morges]] for the Jade Falcon incursion, managing to avoid any meaningful casualties in the process. The full-strength RCT took up the role of bodyguard to [[Peter Steiner-Davion]] as he arrived on [[Tharkad]] on August 18, 3066, They were the first unit of Peter's coalition to make planetfall, sending a bodyguard detachment with Peter when he attempted a parlay with his great-aunt [[Nondi Steiner|Nondi]] at Resaurius Keep. When Peter took the field on March 23, 3067, to cross the Wash, the river separating Tharkad City from [[The Nagelring]], the Twentieth fought alongside him. They were initially pinned between the [[Sixty-sixth Division (ComStar)|Sixty-sixth Division]] and elements of the Royal Guards, locked in a grinding battle. Peter responded by ordering the [[Kell Hounds]] to draw off the Royal Guards so the Twentieth could turn its full force on the [[Com Guards]]. After an air strike shattered the Com Guards, Peter swung the Twentieth into the flank of the Royal Guards.

The Arcturan Guards crossed into Tharkad City on the March 27, forming the point of Peter's thrust to The Triad. They suffered extensive damage, totaling roughly a third of their numbers, before the defenders from the [[First Royal Guards]] shattered. The Twentieth would likely have sustained much worse damage had the [[Blue Star Irregulars]] not moved to support them. While Nondi Steiner prepared to make a final stand in Tharkad City with the [[Second Royal Guards]] and the [[Eleventh Arcturan Guards]], the Eleventh opted instead to surrender to their sister regiment. The Second Royal Guard did not follow, and Peter's coalition spent the next week fighting street-to-street before Nondi's death on April 2. The final fighting ended three days later.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', pp. 175–177</ref>

The Twentieth participated in the liberation of [[Tharkad]] in January [[3072]]. Fervently loyal to Archon Peter, they made an end run around the Blakists to secure him and relieved the surviving Royal Guards as his bodyguards. They then escorted him out of the combat zone, and then engaged the invading Blakists.<ref name=JTPT7>''Jihad Turning Points: Tharkad'', p. 7: "Combatants"</ref> They arrived on world via a combat drop in the Sassafras Valley and engaged the [[Thirty-seventh Division (Word of Blake)|Word of Blake's Thirty-seventh Division]].<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Tharkad'', p. 10</ref> Two weeks later they pursued the retreating Thirty-seventh Division to Tharkad's main spaceport.

Seriously damaged during the fighting for Tharkad, the Twentieth was rebuilt from the handful of survivors of the original unit, bolstered by a battalion of troops from the [[Twenty-fifth Arcturan Guards]]. [[Adam Steiner]] chose to emphasize rebuilding the unit before many others out of respect for his fallen predecessor, with the reborn unit retaining the name "Peter's Pride."<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 98</ref> At the end of the [[Jihad]] they were stationed on [[Ford]].<ref name=FM3085p107/>
