Equipped with lighter [[BattleMech]]s and augmented by a conventional aircraft detachment, the Eleventh was a skilled reconnaissance formation.<ref name="FR:FS2765p8">''Field Report 2765: AFFS'', p. 8: "Avalon Hussars"</ref> ===Fourth Succession War=== During the [[Fourth Succession War]], the 11th Avalon Hussars were stationed on [[Kesai IV]], protecting that world from attack.<ref>''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 11</ref> ===War of 3039=== During the [[War of 3039]], the 11th Avalon Hussars were stationed on [[Kesai IV]].<ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 135</ref> ===Clan Invasion=== In [[3050]] the 11th Avalon Hussars were stationed on Kesai IV.<ref name=20yr20>''20 Year Update'', p. 20</ref> ===Civil War=== The homeworld of the 11th Avalon Hussars was [[Brockway]]. During the [[FedCom Civil War]] they fought for Katherine Steiner-Davion. In late [[3062]] and early [[3063]], they fought against the [[Lexington Combat Group]] on [[Brockway]], suffering heavy losses. The 11th Hussars outnumbered the Lexington Combat Group, but the LCG used their superior maneuverability to keep the 11th off-balance.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 31</ref> After losing approximately 50% of their forces (and inflicting similar losses on the Lexington Combat Group) the 11th retreated to [[Ridgebrook]].<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 56</ref> They remained on Ridgebrook until [[3065]], when the 11th Avalon Hussars, [[Ridgebrook CMM]] and the [[4th Donegal Guards]] attacked [[New Syrtis]]. In an attempt to win the war quickly, the 11th's [[battle armor]] unit tried to destroy the defender's headquarters. This attack failed, and shortly after this the 11th's headquarters was destroyed in an attack by the [[8th Syrtis Fusiliers]] and the [[Vanguard Legion]].<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', pp. 141–142</ref> After losing command cohesion, the 11th as a unit pretty much ceased to exist. The surviving 11th Hussars were attached to the 4th Donegal Guards and they held the [[Kathil CMM]] in place while the 4th Donegal attacked the militia unit from both sides. This attack heavily damaged the CMM, but also destroyed the 11th Hussars. The individual survivors were integrated into the 4th Donegal Guards.<ref>''FedCom Civil War'', p. 156</ref> Due to their heavy losses and support of Katherine, the 11th Avalon Hussars RCT was deactivated after the FedCom Civil War.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 126</ref> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 11th Avalon Hussars''' |- | [[Marshal (rank)|Marshal]]||[[Walther Gothard]]||[[3025]]<ref name=HD136>''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 136 (PDF version): "Bryceland PDZ"</ref> |- | Hauptmann General||[[Justin Leabo]]||[[3050]] - January [[3066]]<ref name=20yr20/><ref name=ORp22>''Objective Raids'', p. 22: "Lyran Commonwealth State Command"</ref><ref name=FMFS52>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 52: "11th Avalon Hussars Unit Profile"</ref> |- |} ==Tactics== === Star League === During the Star League era all of the Avalon Hussars were required to focus on being both flexible and mobile, with every regiment required to be capable of deploying within eight hours, although many of the Hussars struggled to actually achieve this. The Eleventh was supported by an aerospace wing, although the wing was primarily attached to the Eleventh to provide ground support.<ref name="FR:FS2765p8"/> === FedCom Civil War === The 11th had three battalions of light and medium BattleMechs, supported by a fourth battalion of heavy and assault designs.
