Overview

The One Hundred Thirty-First BattleMech Division was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army.

History

In 2764, the unit was assigned, as a part of the XIX Corps, Eighth Army, to Destrict 1 of the Free Worlds League Military Region and then transferred to District 3 by 2765.[1]. The 131th survived the Periphery Uprising and the Hegemony Campaign, and followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus in 2784.[1]
