In 2765, the Second Rasalhague Regulars were stationed on Alshain and was considered a "Light" regiment. They remained on Alshain until the First Succession War.[1][2]
Succession Wars
First Succession War
The Second Rasalhague Regulars participated in the fighting along the Lyran Commonwealth border. They survived the horrors of the First Succession War and were posted on Heiligendreuz at the end of the war. They had suffered 63% losses during the fighting.[2]
Second Succession War
The Second Rasalhague Regulars participated in Operation Chopin by assaulting the world of Kobe with the 5th Rasalhague Regulars in 2835. There they fought against the Fourth Royal Guards and the Thirteenth Arcturan Guards. The Lyrans were able to separate the Regulars from their dropships, but were unable to land a killing blow against the DCMS units due to their maneuverability. The Combine troops were then able to turn the tables with their speed and land several damaging blows with lightning raids. This led to the phrase "a Kobe dance" arising in the Draconis Combine to honor the Regulars victories. The phrase was used to describe a small, fast opponent maneuvering around a heavier, slower one.[3]
At some time before the end of the Second Succession War, the Second Rasalhague Regulars were destroyed.[4]
