The 214th Jaguar Dragoons was a front line military formation of Clan Smoke Jaguar.

History

Operation Revival

The 214th fought on the following worlds during the invasion of the Inner Sphere:

Wave Two

  • Chupadero - The Dragoons quickly gained air superiority allowing the First Assault Trinary to smash the defending Armour Brigade; forcing them to take shelter in the Billoc Tunnels, however the Trinary followed them inside and finished them off. [1]

Wave Three

  • Kabah - The defending Kabah Knights were defeated on the Jousting Grounds of the Palace, only three survived to become bondsmen. [1] Civilians attempted a guerilla campaign, some Dragoons who fought on the planet succumbed to a native hemorrhagic fever. [2]

Wave Five

  • Avon - The defending 2nd Amphigean Legion opted for a guerilla campaign. The 214th Dragoons sent out head-hunters to eliminate the Amphigean command following it with a crushing assault that saw the Legion wiped out.[3]

Officers

Tactics

The Dragoons were know to employ small head-hunting units.

Composition History

3049-3052

(partial)

  • Trinary Command
  • First Trinary Assault
  • Second Trinary Assault
  • Aerospace Trinary

Notes

  • There is no mention of the 214th after the middle of the Fifth Wave of Operation Revival, so it is possible the unit either rotated back to the Clan homeworlds, or, more likely, was destroyed on Tukayyid as they are not recorded as fighting on Luthien.
