History[edit]

The First Coventry Jaegers were founded to counterbalance the pro-Victor Coventry CPM, undermining the support available to Coventry's ruler, Duke Harrison Bradford.[1]

They fought alongside Kristen's Krushers on Coventry against the Coventry Province Militia in 3063. Later, they attacked the Krushers and drove them off-planet. So, in October that year, they stood alone against Victor Steiner-Davion's task force of three regiments. They were destroyed as revenge for the destruction of the Coventry CPM. By the time the Jaegers surrendered on December 12 3063, only fourteen Jaeger soldiers were still alive, eight of those in critical condition.[2]
