Early History

The Third St. Ives Lancers were stationed on St. Ives in 2765. The Third Lancers had been destroyed four times by 2765, but each time they were destroyed they killed the commander of enemy forces.[1]

Dark Age

The Third St. Ives Lancers were reformed during the Dark Age era. The new unit fielded significantly more OmniMechs than the average CCAF regiment, and in particular deployed the highest number of the new Vandal OmniMech of any Liao command.[2]
