History

The command formed on Galatea in 2990. They worked first for the DCMS, and then later for the FWLM as well. The Word of Blake hired them for an invasion of Keid. The planet was held by the 30th Lyran Guards and with the support of the Hannibal's Hermits the Lyran force was doomed.

The command remains on planet as the garrison force. Supported by a large Militia (3 regiments mechanized infantry, 1 armor regiment, 2 wings of conventional fighters, and a 'Mech regiment) any invader will face fierce resistance.

Officer

The officer corps of the command are from all Successor states and that gives them a deep inside look of each military.

Tactics

The Ranger use the fast units to get the attention of the enemy and lured them in a trap where the heavier units wait to close it.

Support

They can use their Overlord-class DropShip for transport but can only cover 45% technical support.
