1st Coventry Jaegers
Sarna News
History
They were founded as a prestige unit and were completely loyal to their founder, Duke Frederick Bradford.[citation needed]
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 14 Jaeger soldiers were still alive, 8 of those in critical condition.
Officers
In 3063 the Commanding Officer was Oberst Jason Walker, who was a supporter of Archon Katherine Steiner-Davion. Walker was killed fighting an Allied force personally led by Victor Steiner-Davion.
Tactics
The Coventry Jaegers employ the time-honored tactics of the LAAF -- climb into a heavy BattleMech and outlast your opponent in a stand-up fight.
Composition
3063
- 2 'Mech Battalions
- 1 Tank Battalion
- 1 Infantry Battallion (includes a Fenrir Battle Armor Platoon)
Notes
As a prestige unit, they use the best equipment and Mechs available: for example Blitzkrieg and Hauptmann-Mechs.
Their unit color was a bright canary-yellow.
