Overview

The Four Hundred Fifty-eighth Battle Regiment was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army.

History

In 2764, the unit was assigned, as a part of the LXV Corps, Nineteenth Army, of the Periphery Military Region. There they were attached to the 368th BattleMech Division. They moved between the Division's three worlds, helping to calm trouble.[1]

Later they moved to an undisclosed area of the Periphery to take part in the Periphery Uprising by 2765.[2]. The 458th survived the war and the Hegemony Campaign, and followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus in 2784.[2]

Composition

As an SLDF Battle regiment the 458th would have been composed primarily of medium to heavy 'Mechs.[3]
