==History==
The unit was defending Achenar in [[3038]].

After the [[3057]] Marik-Liao offensive that claimed much of the [[Sarna March]], the Militia was placed under the control of the Capellan March Militia.<ref name=FMFS113>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 113, "Militia Profile"</ref>

During the [[FedCom Civil War]] the Achernar CMM fought for Katherine Steiner-Davion. During the later waves of the Civil War, the Achernar CMM was heavily damaged. Achernar officially became part of the Capellan March Militia in [[3067]], after the [[FedCom Civil War]] ended.<ref name=FMFS113/> The fighting of the Civil War reduced them to approximately half their pre-Civil War strength.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 137, Achernar PDZ</ref>

[[Achernar BattleMechs]] maintained a factory named the West Fabrication Facility on Achernar, which for a long time was a producer of [[IndustrialMech]]s. When the [[Word of Blake]] captured Achernar, it rebuilt some of the production lines within the West Fabrication Facility to produce either (or both of) the [[Osprey|OSP-25 ''Osprey'']] or [[Osprey|OSP-26 ''Osprey'']] BattleMech.<ref name="TRO3085p82">''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 82: "Osprey"</ref><ref name="JHS:Tp37">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 37: "Liberated Achernar"</ref> The West Fabrication Facility was completely destroyed in June [[3077]] when the Achernar Protectorate Militia ignored the surrender issued by the planetary governor to the allied coalition forces and instead dug in around the plant, forcing the task force on the Federated Suns front of [[Operation SCOUR]] to root out the militia from the factory complexes, leveling its facilities in the process.<ref name="J:FRp57">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 57: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

== Rules ==
 
=== Achernar Protectorate Militia ===
 
As long as a Protectorate Militia force is fighting on its homeworld and is acting as the scenario's Defender, the Protectorate Militia force receives the Force the Initiative and Off-Map Movement special abilities.
 
If deployed as the Attacker in a scenario, the Protectorate Militia force loses its Force the Initiative ability, but retains its Off-Map Movement capability.
 
 
 
If deployed on a world other than its homeworld (such as an Epsilon Eridani force being deployed on Genoa), the Protectorate Militia force not only loses all of its special abilities, but also suffers a –2 Initiative modifier.
 
 
 
Although Blakist-based, Protectorate Militia forces may use standard Inner Sphere force arrangements (Lances, Companies, and Battalions) rather than Word of Blake force arrangements.<ref name="JS:BDp143">''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 103: "Rules Annex"</ref>
