History
Formation
The 11th Alshain Avengers is a unit comprised of the remains of units that were originally part of the Alshain Regulars prior to the Clan Invasion.
Operation Bulldog
The unit were tasked with the defense of Meinacos. The 8th Dieron Regulars, St. Ives Cheveau Legers, 1st Canopian Cuirassiers, and 11th Alshain Avengers together with the 7th Pesht Regulars destroyed the 267th Battle Cluster from Clan Smoke Jaguar during their failed counter invasion.
During the Wave Four of the operation, the 10th Jaguar Regulars fled when they faced the task force, which included the 11th Alshain Avengers, the Davion Assault Guards, 1st Wolf Legion Cluster, and the elite 1st Kell Hounds.
Dominion War
In mid-3062, the 11th was assigned to the world Yamarovka where they began months of cross-training with the newly formed Zeta Provisional Galaxy of Clan Nova Cat. The Avengers fought a series of exercises with the new unit, including the 1st Dragoncat Cluster.
The Dragoncats trained closely with the 11th's Third Battalion and its commanding officer doubled as a liaison officer to the Nova Cat unit.
Unknown to the Draconis Combine's High Command, the 11th was ordered by Tai-shu Toshimichi Uchida, who was influenced by Duke Ricol, to join the invasion of the former district capital of Alshain in late September.
On October 1st, the 1st Dragoncats blocked 11th from going to their DropShips, asking they wait 48 hours for them to confirm the order. With their invasion on a strict timetable, the 11th attacked the Dragoncats in deadly night battle in midst of gale force thunderstorm. Both sides devastated each other in the conflict, but the numerically superior Avengers soon gained the upper hand.
Eventually a MechEarrior from the Dragoncats named Zane challenged the third's commanding officer, Palmer Yoshio to ritual of Zellbrigen, with he accepted. Yoshio, feeling sorry for his former comrade, offered hegira to him. Unfortunately, one of Yoshio's men, furious at offer of hegira, killed Zane with an autocannon shot to his Pack Hunter's head, decapitating the 'Mech. This blatant violation of zellbrigen provoked the rest of Zeta Provisional Galaxy, which had until then remained on the sidelines, into attacking the 11th in full force.
Hopelessly outmatched and unable to reach the DropShips, Yoshio ordered his forces to pull back, and, by November, the 11th was reduced to fighting guerrilla actions.[1] Later that month, Sigma and Omega Galaxies of Clan Ghost Bear arrived on Yamarovka and completely destroyed the remaining forces of the regiment.[2]
