History
The Harlock Warriors were formed after a Chain Gang raid in 2825 on Kobe. Most of the unit's warriors were the survivors of a bandit unit or the Chain Gang. The unit first worked for the Free Worlds League and later the Federated Commonwealth. During this time, the unit reached regimental strength with conventional forces support. During the FedCom Civil War they fought for the allied side. The command liberated Small World.[1]
In 3069 during the Jihad, the planet Errai was assaulted by the Word of Blake's Sixth Division. After conducting a guerrilla campaign, the defending mercenaries retreated to Markab. Attempts to negotiate a new contract with the 2nd Robinson Rangers failed, though the Warriors were allowed to rebuild on Markab. In 3071 a battalion of 10th Ghost 'Mechs landed on the Warrior's base while most of the unit was out training. The 10th butchered the unit and left only four companies.[2]
