−	=== Fourth Succession War ===
−	During the first wave of [[Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG]], the major [[Lyran Commonwealth]] offensive of the [[Fourth Succession War]], the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] attacked [[Ko]] with the Third and Seventh Regiments of the Star Guards.<ref name="NAIS4SWp44">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 44-45, "Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG"</ref> The defenders were of questionable loyalty, and didn't put up much of a fight in the face of the planetary assault.<ref name="NAIS4SWp51">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 51, "Other Early Action"</ref> The Seventh went on to capture Imbros III<ref name="NAIS4SWp44"/> during the final wave of Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG in a relatively easy campaign, as the defending forces lacked any significant number of 'Mechs to oppose the Seventh with,<ref name="FSWMAv1p60">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 60-61, "End of the Offensive"</ref> although Imbros III was possibly the last of the worlds to be fully occupied by the Lyrans, as maps still recorded it as a Combine holding in January [[3029]].<ref name="FSWMAv2p60">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 60, "Draconis Front Map (January 3029)"</ref>

−	Following the lull in offensive operations after the third wave of GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG the Third deployed again during [[Operation HOLDUR]], the operation devised by [[Margrave]] [[Jack Sphire]] of the Ryde Theater of the Commonwealth to break the deadlock in the local region. Almost a hundred regiments deployed in attacks across eight assorted Combine worlds in the [[Dieron Military District]]; in the case of the Seventh, that world was [[Asta]], which fell quickly after the Seventh destroyed the few 'Mechs found amongst the defending forces.<ref name="FSWMAv2p73">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 73, "Ryde Theater"</ref>

−	The Seventh was defending [[Bensinger]] when Clan Jade Falcon assaulted that world in their first wave of [[Operation REVIVAL]]. As the mercenaries were engaged in wargames near the Dravinna Vale they were unable to participate in the main defense of the world, and so Colonel Bouncer and his troops subsequently mounted guerrilla attacks upon the Clan occupiers. The Falcons eventually hunted down and annihilated the unit, although Bouncer and the command company were not accounted for.<ref name=ER3052p41>''Era Report: 3052'', p. 41, "The Twelfth Star Guards"</ref>	+	Clan Jade Falcon assaulted [[Bensinger]] during [[Operation REVIVAL]] that was defended by the Seventh.
