Unit Description
The Magistracy Cavaliers was frontline but independent Reinforce Combined-Arms Regiment in service of the Magistracy of Canopus.
History
Origin
The Cavaliers originally started life as former volunteer 'Mech battalion, the Clayborne's Commandos, which was part of the defunct Cassandra's Volunteers Regiment. The battalion had served on distant Canopian world of Thraxa. During Andurien Secession in 3030s, the planet's leaders feeling Magestrix and her government was now ignoring needs of Thraxa. They managed to seduce the long neglected battalion to become private corporate security force, quietly unofficially leaving the rolls of the MAF. With corporate money, Thraxa help build up the Commandos into a two battalion force.
Largely forgotten by MAF, Thraxa had always been a largely self-sufficient world. They were soon gained noticed during the Pirate War of 3057, where the unit manage to fend off the pirate raids against the planet.[1]
Formation as a Regiment
Magestrax Emma Centrella had taken noticed what people of Thraxa had done to become self-sufficient to fend of the Pirate scourge. In wanting additional frontline unit for service for MAF, the Magestrax cut a deal with Thraxa officials. The Magistracy would provide aide to build up the two BattleMech battalion force to full front-line Regiment, if two of them would be available for service in MAF. The officials agreed to the arrangement as long one battalion would remain on planet at all time. With agreement resulted in Commandos becoming the Magistracy Cavaliers.
By 3064, the unit had become augment Regiment of BattleMechs, while being supported by battalion of Hovercraft and specialized Infantry forces. The Cavalier's infantry became known as best in Magistracy's Armed Forces.
The old Commando's executive officer, was promoted to its Commanding officer, while his predecessor would be demoted to Executive position. This created some difficulties, for unit's command cohesion.[1]
Prior to the Jihad

No same battalion would be permanently assigned to assist give more experience and keeping them and its fellow unaffiliated MAF regiment, 1st Canopian Brigade sharp. In August, the unit's Armor force would grown to full Regiment. It and 'Mech battalions would be split between homeworld and Gambilon.[2]
