History

Third Succession War

After Snord's Irregulars kidnapped Jason Marik-Torrenson, third cousin to Janos Marik[1], as part of Operation Junk Yard Dog. In retaliation for Junk Yard Dog, Janos formed an ad hoc disposable unit dubbed Carp's Commandos in 3019 formed by prisoners and military rejects and equipped them with substandard 'Mechs and had them dropped on Clinton to cause as much damage as possible to the Irregulars. The Commandos landed significantly off-target, removing any element of surprise, and as a result were handily defeated by the Irregulars, who nevertheless had to spend the next six months rebuilding from the damage taken.[2][3]
