Like the other regiments of the Militia, the Eighteenth remained a popular unit with both the commoners within the League and the peerage because of their public dedication to the people of the League, and like the other regiments of the Militia often acted as training grounds for troops across the League. A significant number of the personnel serving in other more prestigious federal units and various provincial forces within the League had actually begun their careers in the Eighteenth or another of the Marik Militia regiments. The Eighteenth had the unfortunate distinction of being the lowest priority for supplies from the Quartermaster General, due to long-standing disciplinary problems.<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp10"/> ===Anton's Revolt=== During the [[Marik Civil War (31st c.)|Marik Civil War]], the Eighteenth Militia supported [[Anton Marik]], initially meeting with great success in their battles.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 18</ref> They quickly subdued [[Sorunda]].<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 23</ref> On [[New Olympia]], however, the cadets of the [[Allison MechWarrior Institute]] and the [[Lloyd Marik-Stanley Aerospace School]] managed to hold off the Eighteenth until reinforcements could arrive.
