History

The Green Machine mercenary command often provided decent, if uninspired, service for their employers. They usually accepted contracts about security duties. Over the years, experienced soldiers left the command. These soldiers reduced the command's experience level, and in turn affected their financial picture. During the Clan Invasion the AFFC assigned the unit to another garrison contract on the Lyran Commonwealth world of Kowloon. Later they were reassigned to the Federated Commonwealth/St. Ives Compact border world of Purvo.[1] War games in 3066 resulted in the Green Machine being totally destroyed by the Purvo planetary militia. After this poor showing they relocated to Westerhand, where they were hired by the Capellan Confederation during the opening years of the Jihad. They garrisoned Ares.[2]

In 3117 they were hired by the Calderon Protectorate. While defending the nation, they avenged a militia force that was destroyed on Carvajal. The Green Machine landed on the world while the Dominars pirate band was present, and destroyed them.[3]
