History

IV Legio was formed to act as a rapid-response force for the Marian Legions. The IV Legio contained more vehicles than any other BattleMech Legion. The Legion deployed two vehicles for every 'Mech. The 'Mechs were typically faster medium and heavy models. The need to coordinate these fast vehicles and and 'Mechs made the IV Legio one of the most coordinated of the Marian Legions.

Deployed to Trasjkis, the Legion drove the Left Arm of Thor from the world. Later they deployed to Trondheimal and encountered two battalions of light armor. These units inflicted heavy losses on the Legion before they were destroyed.[1]

Officers

As of 3064 the commanding officer was Principes Julie Gupton.[1]

As of 3067 the commanding officer was Prefect Chakra Sunkehl.[2]

As of 3085 the commanding officer was Prefect Albert DeVereaux.[3]

Tactics

The IV Legio prefers to utilize hit-and-run maneuvers in striking logistical and weak points in order to bring down the enemy.[1]
