The [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] task force consisted of three [[BattleMech]] regiments - the First and a sister unit, the [[Third Lyran Regulars|3<sup>rd</sup> Lyran Regulars]], along with the the [[Fourth Donegal Guards|4<sup>th</sup> Donegal Guards]], supported by forty assorted regiments of [[infantry]] and [[armor]].<ref name="NAIS4SWp46">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 46, "Harvest"</ref> |

The Lyran forces dropped on the Ohio continent en masse and made immediate and effective use of the new [[Lightning Company|Lightning Companies]] created as a result of the cross-training and co-operation between the LCAF and the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] in the years before the invasion. In two key battles - one the Battle of Dangalobee Fields Where the 1<sup>st</sup> Lyran Regulars [[RCT]] fought the 5<sup>th</sup> Amphigean Light Assault Group, and the other the Battle for Pusou Hill where the 4<sup>th</sup> Donegal Guards RCT and elements of both Lyran Regulars RCTs fought against the Hermits - the Lightning Companies exploited weaknesses in the enemy line to break through and wreak havoc in the [[DCMS]] rear areas, catching their opponents by complete surprise.<ref name="NAIS4SWp46"/> |

Deploying under the overall command of General Troka, the 3<sup>rd</sup> deployed alongside the 4<sup>th</sup> Donegal Guards again, as well as [[Winfield's Brigade]] and a secret, newly-formed regiment, the [[Tyr Regiment]] - an assault-weight 'Mech command formed from members of the Tyr resistance group and those with roots in the former [[Rasalhague Principality]]. The opposition on Kirchback consisted of the [[Seventeenth Rasalhague Regulars|17<sup>th</sup> Rasalhague Regulars]] and the remaining elements of the 5<sup>th</sup> Amphigean LAG and Helmut's Hermits, who had retreated to Kirchbach after their defeat on Harvest. The Tyr regiment routed the 17<sup>th</sup> Rasalhague Regulars in a battle near the city of Östersund; the appearance of the regiment prompted a popular revolt among the population, who were still predominantly of Scandinavian heritage. The population engaged in riots and strikes, while members of the Tyr underground movement launched sabotage attacks that helped fuel an environment so hostile to the DCMS forces that they were left feeling as if they were fighting in an enemy realm. With the 17<sup>th</sup> damaged and the 5<sup>th</sup> Amphigean LAG and Helmut's Hermits still weak from their earlier battles the DCMS was forced to recall its forces from Kirchbach. General Kelly Benzinger, the commanding officer of the 17<sup>th</sup>, committed suicide on Kirchbach.<ref name="NAIS4SWp60">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 60, "Kirchbach"</ref> |
