History

Formation

The First Fronc Cuirassiers were formed by the Fronc Reaches in order to provide additional defense. To attract troops, they promised land and property to Dispossessed MechWarriors and small mercenary commands.[1]

The former mercenaries came together and started training on the landhold of Colonel Derek Hudsenn. There they developed their small-unit tactics, with an eye to repelling pirate raids. Enough MechWarriors had arrived to build a second battalion.[2]

In 3085 elements of the 1st Fronc Cuirassiers were primarily stationed across Rockwellawan and Portland,[3] but they also had lances stationed on several other nearby worlds for additional defense.[2]


Officers

As of 3085 the commanding officer was Colonel Jody Rudawski.[3]


Tactics

The First Fronc Cuirassiers specialize in small unit tactics to more effectively drive off the pirates that frequently raid the Reaches.[2]
