History
Fourth Succession War
At the start of Fourth Succession War the Fifth Amphigean was stationed on the world Harvest alongside the mercenary unit Helmut's Hermits and a considerable number of supporting regiments. The regiment was taken by suprise by the attack of the 1st Lyran Regulars, the 3rd Lyran Regulars and the 4th Donegal Guards during Operation Gotterdammerung. The 5th LAG was eventually being forced to retreat to Kirchbach. However, the LCAF attacked Kirchbach during the exploitation phase. Kirchbach was defended by the 5th Amphigean LAG and two additional DCMS 'Mech units, Helmut's Hermits and the 17th Rasalhague Regulars. The Lyran task force consisted of the Tyr Regiment, Winfield's Brigade, the 4th Donegal Guards and the 3rd Lyran Regulars. The DCMS units were driven off-world in short order after the 17th Regulars have been crushed by the Tyr Regiment.[1]
