Jihad
The Assault Guards were instrumental in driving the Word of Blake off of New Avalon. They arrived in 3068, taking few casualties during their arrival. Their ability to move their heavy 'Mechs more quickly than expected kept them from being pinned down by the Blakist forces. The Assault Guards were one of the main units defending Avalon City, along with the Davion Heavy Guards and 1st Davion Guards.[1] During the Third Battle of New Avalon, they took serious casualties because they stopped several attacks cold.[2]
Officers
As of 3062 the Commanding Officer was Marshal Stephan Cooper.
In 3068 Marshal Dixon Zibler commanded the Assault Guards.[3]
