History

Formation

The III Principes Guards (also known as the Third Principes) was assigned to Ningpo and fought elements of the 4th Capellan Defense Force. Though newly formed, the Third Principes was successful.[1]

In 3085 the III Principes is stationed on Tikonov in Prefecture IV of the Republic of the Sphere.[2] That same year the III Principes' jump laser infantry battalion was held up as an example of self-reliance, ingenuity and a determination to make things work by General Albrecht Hoft of the Republican Armed Forces Department of Military Intelligence. Despite being comprised of personnel from a range of different worlds, including two Capellan Confederation worlds and five from the former Free Worlds League, despite being equipped with a range of laser rifles varying in age and pedigree from battery-charged models hailing from the mid-Third Succession War through to the latest all-inclusive models, despite operating jump packs manufactured by five different companies across the Inner Sphere and despite receiving no spare parts for a year because the Quartermaster literally forgot them, the jump infantry battalion continued to take top place in various wargames held within the Republic of the Sphere.[3]
