They were viewed by the rest of the CCAF as a largely show unit, whose members were better at performing on a parade ground than on the battlefield. They spent several years along the [[Periphery]] border and underwent a tough training regimen which at least instilled basic military competency.+ {{sectionstub}} − − A tradition of the Second was that every soldier was issued a white horse, and was responsible for learning how to ride, groom, and care for the animal. The need to move over one hundred horses added to the unit's logistical burden.<ref name=fr2765cc11/> − − ===Re-formation=== − The Second Liao Guards were re-formed sometime before [[Operation GREAT FLOOD]] as one of the [[Hidden Lion]] regiments resurrected by [[Chancellor]] [[Daoshen Liao]] using stockpiled equipment.<ref name=FM3145p35 /> The new Liao Guards used the [[Augmented Regiment]] formations commonly found in the [[CCAF]] by [[3145]].<ref name=FM:3145p27>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 27: "General Review"</ref> They were a front-line regiment of the [[Tikonov Commonality]].<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 28: "The New Old-Fashioned Way"</ref> − − ===Operation GREAT FLOOD=== − The Second Liao Guards spent the majority of [[Operation GREAT FLOOD]] securing planets captured by the [[McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. Their first real battle occurred on [[Nanking]] where the regiment's lack of experience resulted in avoidable casualties. The planetary capital was eventually captured through simple attrition and the Liao Guards Brigade has since been using the locally produced [[BattleMechs]] to replace losses.<ref name=FM3145p35/> − − ===Operation CELESTIAL REWARD=== − The Second Liao Guards garrisoned [[Hsien]] and [[Nanking]] while [[Operation CELESTIAL REWARD]] took place. In February of [[3144]], a covert [[lance]] from [[Stone's Fury]] raided [[Hsien]] and destroyed a small Liao Guard patrol.<ref name=TRO3145ROTSp40>''Technical Readout: 3145 Republic of the Sphere'', p. 40</ref><ref name=FM3145p35/> ==Officers== ==Officers== − {| class="wikitable" + {{Sectionstub}} − |- − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name − ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command − |- − | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 2nd Liao Guards''' − |- − | ''[[Sang-shao]]''||[[Felix Krishnamurthy]]||[[3145]]<ref name=fm3145p47>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 47</ref> − |- − |} − − ===Other Unit Officers=== − * ''[[Sang-wei]]'' [[Jan Prowell (2nd Liao Guards)|Jan Prowell]] during the [[Dark Age]].<ref name="XX">''Technical Redout: Dark Age'', p. 18: "ABS-5Y Anubis"</ref> ==Tactics== ==Tactics== − ===3145===+ {{Sectionstub}} − Lack of experience has made the Second Liao Guards dependent on their numbers and technology to achieve victory.<ref name=FM3145p35/> ==Composition History== ==Composition History== ===2765=== ===2765=== − '''Second Liao Guards''' (Regiment/Regular/Questionable)<ref name=fr2765cc11/> + '''2nd Liao Guards''' (Regular/Questionable) <ref name=fr2765cc11/> − : Note: At this point in time the unit was stationed on [[Sian]].<ref name=fr2765cc11/> − − === 2786–2821 === − '''Second Liao Guards''' (Regiment/Regular/Questionable)<ref name="FSWp136">''First Succession War'', p. 136: "Capellan Confederation Armed Forces (CCAF) - Deployment Table"</ref> − :- At this point in time the Second was a medium-weight regiment operating at full strength and was stationed on [[Sian]].<ref name="FSWp136"/> In 2821 the unit was operating at between one-third and half-strength.<ref name="FSWp136"/> − − === 2830 === − '''2nd Liao Guards''' (Regiment/Regular/Questionable)<ref name=2SWp95>''Second Succession War'', p. 95</ref> − : Note: At this point in time the heavy-weight unit was stationed on [[Sian]] with an operational readiness of 82 percent.<ref name=2SWp95/> The unit was destroyed during the war.<ref name=2SWp95/> − − ===3145=== − '''Second Liao Guards''' (Green/Fanatical) (80% Strength)<ref name=fm3145p47/> − * CO: ''Sang-shao'' Felix Krishnamurthy − − '''Fifth Sarna Air Defense Wing''' (Regular/Reliable) (50% Strength)<ref name=fm3145p47/> − * CO: ''[[Kong-zhong-shao]]'' [[Gang Sit]] − − '''Third Sakhalin Light Armor''' (Regular/Fanatical) (75% Strength)<ref name=fm3145p47/> − * CO: ''[[Zhong-shao]]'' [[Jdavie Mirshahi]] − − '''First Liao Foot Guards''' (Green/Fanatical) (105% Strength)<ref name=fm3145p47/> − * CO: ''Zhong-shao'' [[Ying Kit Tang]] − − === Notes === − * The unit had a "B" Equipment Rating.
