Template:InfoBoxStateUnit

The First Andurien Rangers were formed in 3079 from the remains of the 1st Free Worlds Legionnaires.[1]

History

After launching an unauthorized strike against the Capellan Confederation the First Free Worlds Legionnaires returned home in time to witness the dissolution of the Free Worlds League. These troops then pledged their loyalty to the Duchy of Andurien and were redesignated the First Andurien Rangers. The newly created unit raided Principia and later drove the 2nd Oriente Hussars off of Andurien, the world they garrisoned in the early 3080s.[1]

The First Rangers historically have disliked the Capellan Confederation, to the point of hatred. By 3085, however, the unit's troops realized that they couldn't afford to fight a war and adopted a more conciliatory approach, but the troops still grumbled about the cease fire.[2]

During the Victoria War the First Andurien Rangers were forced off of Betelgeuse and Sigma Mare by Warrior House Imarra.[3]

Officers

As of 3085, the commanding officer was Colonel Martin Honnifer.[2]

In 3145 the commanding officer is Colonel Romona March.[4]

Tactics

The First Andurien Rangers try to retain the tactics they used as the First Free Worlds Legionnaires. They make extensive use of VTOLs and light BattleMechs to strike at a foe and then withdraw, bleeding an opponent to death.[2]
