−	[[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Kenyon Marik]] launched a mass invasion of the [[Capellan Commonality|Capellan]] and [[Sarna Commonality|Sarna Commonalities]] of the Capellan Confederation in February [[2787]], using ten assorted regiments of the [[Marik Militia]], almost four times as many conventional and aerospace groups, and the bulk of the [[Free Worlds League Navy]] [[2nd Fleet (Free Worlds League)|Second Fleet]]. The Nineteenth Marik Militia was one of the ten Militia regiments deployed in the invasion. The Nineteenth's first deployment was as a part of the task force assigned to the invasion of [[Second Chance]] during the first wave of attacks. The first battle for Second Chance took place in space; the [[FWLM]] task force arrived at the nadir [[jump point]], with the ground forces - led by the Nineteenth, [[20th Marik Militia|Twentieth]] and [[Thirty-eighth Marik Militia]] regiments - being escorted by a substantial naval group that included the ''[[Atreus (WarShip class)|Atreus]]''-class [[battleship]] [[Sorunda (Individual Atreus-class WarShip)|FWLS ''Sorunda'']] and the ''[[League (WarShip class)|League]]''-class [[destroyer]]s [[Ospina|FWLS ''Ospina'']] and [[Otavalo|FWLS ''Otavalo'']], two [[squadron]]s of attack [[DropShip]]s and three [[Wing (Formation)|wings]] of [[aerospace fighter]]s. In contrast with the other three systems hit in the opening wave, there was a substantial [[CCAF]] naval presence in the Second Chance system, as part of an ongoing patrol of the border. The Capellan naval presence was smaller than that of the FWLM task force, consisting of the ''[[Du Shi Wang]]''-class battleship [[Mica Liao (Individual Du Shi Wang-class WarShip)|CCS ''Mica Liao'']] and the ''[[Soyal]]''-class heavy cruiser [[Solstice|CCS ''Solstice'']], but both ships were at the zenith jump point when the FWLM task force arrived, and immediately began plotting an intercept jump.<ref name="FSWp53">''First Succession War'', p. 53-54, "A Path to Sarna: The League-Confederation Front"</ref>	+	[[Captain-General]] [[Kenyon Marik]] launched a mass invasion of the [[Capellan Commonality|Capellan]] and [[Sarna Commonality|Sarna Commonalities]] of the Capellan Confederation in February [[2787]], using ten assorted regiments of the [[Marik Militia]], almost four times as many conventional and aerospace groups, and the bulk of the [[Free Worlds League Navy]] [[2nd Fleet (FWLN)|Second Fleet]].

	The ''Solstice'' managed to destroy the ''Ospina'' and a pair of DropShips before being destroyed, but both the ''Mica Liao'' and the ''Solstice'' were destroyed in short order by the League [[WarShip]]s, which then advanced on Second Chance itself. The Twentieth was a new command with little combat experience; half of the Lancers were on exercises on Second Chance's northern continent when the FWLM task force appeared, and word of the swift destruction of the Capellan naval forces was a heavy blow to the morale of the [[Twentieth Liao Lancers]], the planetary garrison... and that of the planetary government, who had little faith in the Lancers.<ref name="FSWp53"/>		The ''Solstice'' managed to destroy the ''Ospina'' and a pair of DropShips before being destroyed, but both the ''Mica Liao'' and the ''Solstice'' were destroyed in short order by the League [[WarShip]]s, which then advanced on Second Chance itself.

Like the other regiments of the Militia, the Nineteenth 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 Nineteenth or another of the Marik Militia regiments.<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp10"/> === First Succession War === [[Captain-General]] [[Kenyon Marik]] launched a mass invasion of the [[Capellan Commonality|Capellan]] and [[Sarna Commonality|Sarna Commonalities]] of the Capellan Confederation in February [[2787]], using ten assorted regiments of the [[Marik Militia]], almost four times as many conventional and aerospace groups, and the bulk of the [[Free Worlds League Navy]] [[2nd Fleet (FWLN)|Second Fleet]]. The Nineteenth Marik Militia was one of the ten Militia regiments deployed in the invasion. The Nineteenth's first deployment was as a part of the task force assigned to the invasion of [[Second Chance]] during the first wave of attacks. The first battle for Second Chance took place in space; the [[FWLM]] task force arrived at the nadir [[jump point]], with the ground forces - led by the Nineteenth, [[20th Marik Militia|Twentieth]] and [[Thirty-eighth Marik Militia]] regiments - being escorted by a substantial naval group that included the ''[[Atreus (WarShip class)|Atreus]]''-class [[battleship]] [[Sorunda (Individual Atreus-class WarShip)|FWLS ''Sorunda'']] and the ''[[League (WarShip class)|League]]''-class [[destroyer]]s [[Ospina|FWLS ''Ospina'']] and [[Otavalo|FWLS ''Otavalo'']], two [[squadron]]s of attack [[DropShip]]s and three [[Wing (Formation)|wings]] of [[aerospace fighter]]s.

The Twentieth was a new command with little combat experience; half of the Lancers were on exercises on Second Chance's northern continent when the FWLM task force appeared, and word of the swift destruction of the Capellan naval forces was a heavy blow to the morale of the [[Twentieth Liao Lancers]], the planetary garrison... and that of the planetary government, who had little faith in the Lancers.<ref name="FSWp53"/> The planetary government ordered the Lancers' support formations to deploy to Sevarias and Sweethaven, two major port cities; the support regiments were vehicle and infantry regiments raised locally, and the government planned to use them to cover the evacuation of high-level officials from the government and the major corporations present on the planet. The discovery that their attempts to rally to defend the planet were being blocked by the planetary government to cover their own evacuation was the last straw for many of the Lancers; by the time the League task force arrived in orbit, a third of the Lancers had already deserted. The League task force detected a number of DropShips warming up for liftoff at Sweethaven; working on the assumption that the DropShips represented a possible attack being launched, the captain of the ''Sorunda'' initiated a seven-minute orbital bombardment of the spaceport. The hellish firestorm destroyed four ''[[Union]]''-class DropShips belonging to the Lancers, two armor companies and a regiment of infantry - and also killed both the planetary governor, Duke Maynard Stott, and the Security Minister, Haley Fernando, along with the majority of the planetary elite. When League [[General]] [[Matias Rosenkov]] called for Second Chance to surrender an hour later, [[Colonel]] [[Mila Palmer]], commanding officer of the remaining Lancers and the senior military officer left on Second Chance, had little choice but to acquiesce.<ref name="FSWp53"/> ==Officers== {{Sectionstub}} ==Tactics== {{Sectionstub}} ==Composition History== === 2765 === '''Nineteenth Militia''' (Green/Reliable)<ref name="FR2765:FWLMp10A">''Field Report 2765: FWLM'', p. 10, "Regimental Status"</ref> :- At this point in time the Nineteenth was stationed on [[Watermael]].<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp10"/> === 2786 === '''Nineteenth Militia''' (Green/Reliable)<ref name="FSWp138">''First Succession War'', p. 138, "Free Worlds League Military (FWLM) - Deployment Table"</ref> :- At this point in time the Nineteenth was a medium-weight regiment operating at full strength and was stationed on Watermael.<ref name="FSWp138"/> === 2821 === '''Nineteenth Marik Militia''' (Green/Reliable)<ref name="FSWp138"/> :- At this point in time the Nineteenth was a medium-weight regiment operating at just over one-third of full strength, and was stationed on [[Corey]].<ref name="FSWp138"/> ==Rules== <div class="gamerules"> ===Game Rules=== ==== First Succession War ==== * As a Marik Militia unit the Nineteenth receives no modifier to Random Attribution Table rolls during the First Succession War.<ref name="FSWp147">''First Succession War'', p. 147, "RAT Die Roll Modifiers by Combat Command Table"</ref> </div> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[First Succession War (Source Book)|First Succession War]]'' * ''[[Field Report 2765: FWLM]] [[Category: Free Worlds League Commands|Marik Militia, 19th]]
