==History==
The '''Marshals of Tikonov''' were raised as the main garrison for [[Tikonov]], the capital world of the [[Tikonov Commonality]] and home to several important factories. The unit's 'Mechs were mostly seventy-five tons or heavier, with only a few lighter weight units. The Marshals of Tikonov defended massive fortresses and factories.<ref name=FR2765CCAFp7>''Field Report 2765: CCAF'', p. 7</ref>

===Rebirth===
The Marshals were reborn in 3145, following a handful of Death Commandos infiltrating the [[Tikonov]] system in August of [[3145]]. They were tasked with uniting and training the planet’s large amount of pro-Capellan partisans; much of the unhappiness caused by the planet's transfer to the [[Federated Suns]].<ref name=FM3145p30/>
 
  
As the CCAF launched their second attack on Tikonov, these partisans revealed themselves. As [[Earthwerks Limited|Earthwerks]]' corporate security forces were widely compromised, this allowed for the capture of their BattleMech production lines. Due to commandeering numerous BattleMechs, the partisans caught the Davion defenders completely off-guard, strongly contributing to their eventual defeat.<ref name=FM3145p30/>

<div class="gamerules">
 +
As a Capellan Hussars force, the Marshals of Tikonov ignore any opponent’s special ability that would impose a negative Initiative modifier against them. In addition, the Marshals may use Off-Map Movement, and their infantry units always execute their Anti-’Mech attacks as though they are at full strength, ignoring any modifiers imposed by trooper casualties.<ref name=FM3145p206>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 206, "Rules Annex - Special Command Abilities"</ref>
