History
The Fourteenth Regulan Hussars were formed from the remains of the 3rd Sirian Lancers. The members of that unit fought for the Word of Blake throughout the Jihad, even fighting against the Coalition during the invasion of Terra. They fled to the Principality of Regulus when they found out that they were going to be charged with war crimes by The Republic of the Sphere. In the Principality, they threw themselves on the mercy of Titus Cameron-Jones, who believed them when they said they only fought for the Blakists in order to secure the Sirian Concordance. The Prince believed them, and the Third Sirian Lancers regiment formed the core of the 12th, 13th, and Fourteenth Regulan Hussars. The Fourteenth then went on to assault Circinus as part of the Regulans' vengeance campaign.[1]
They were stationed on Hellos Minor in 3079[2], but had redeployed to Clipperton in 3085.[3]
The Fourteenth was present on Elektrougli when that world underwent a pro-Regulan coup. The Fourteenth set up a series of ambushes to destroy militia forces that didn't support the coup. Shortly thereafter, the Fourteenth faced the 1st Orloff Grenadiers, who arrived to support the pro-Duchy of Oriente government.[4] The Fourteenth didn't arrive on the world as a complete unit, however, it was only a small group that had been smuggled onto the planet early in 3141.[5]
Officers
As of 3085, the commanding officer was Colonel Allesandro Amemocci.[3]
Tactics
In 3085 the Fourteenth Regulan Hussars were equipped with the lightest equipment in the Regulan Hussars. As a result they used more hit and run tactics instead of the stand up slugfests favored by the other Regulan Hussar regiments.[1]
