−	Formed as part of the [[Treaty of Taurus|Canopian-Taurian Treaty]], the '''First Raventhir Cuirassiers''' were formed to protect Canopian interests in the [[New Colony Region]]. After they were fully formed, they formed a close bond with the [[Concordat Cuirassiers]]; the two regiments respected each other greatly, and shared a similar distrust of [[Inner Sphere]] tyranny. In [[3059]] the First Raventhir detached several companies to inspect the New Colony Region and the [[Colonial Marshals]] charged with protecting it.<ref name=FMP42/>	+	Formed as part of the [[Treaty of Taurus|Canopian-Taurian Treaty]], the '''First Raventhir Cuirassiers''' were formed to protect Canopian interests in the [[New Colony Region]].

−	In [[3067]] the First Raventhir Cuirassiers were sent to [[Joppa]] to assist [[Lockhardt's Ironsides]] in pirate hunting activities. This posting to the backwaters of the Magistracy meant little opportunity for upgraded equipment, and kept the unit's morale fairly low.

−	The First Raventhir Cuirassiers spent the [[Jihad]] defending the people of their garrison planets against attacks from the [[Calderon's Commando]] and ''[[Shen-sè Tian]]'' pirate bands, rather than facing the [[Word of Blake]] forces on the core Magistracy worlds. The First Cuirassiers had no upgraded equipment and would be nothing more than a stream of targets for the Blakists, but against the pirate bands they were more than effective. In fact they were so good that they split into several smaller commands and engaged in antipiracy operations.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 140</ref>	+	The First Raventhir Cuirassiers spent the [[Jihad]] defending the people of their garrison planets against attacks from the [[Calderon Commando]] and [[Shen-sè Tian]] pirate bands, rather than facing the [[Word of Blake]] forces on the core Magistracy worlds.
