As the BattleMech began to dominate the battlefield, the Dragoons increased their size until they were one of the largest CCAF commands. During the [[Age of War]] they were frequently seen on multiple battlefields, but other regiments were often flashier and the Dragoons' contributions were overlooked. With the formation of the [[SLDF]], most of the Sian Dragoons units were disbanded, but some were recreated in [[2765]].<ref name=fr2765cc13/>+ {{sectionstub}} − − As part of the "[[Hidden Lion]]" initiative, Chancellor Daoshen Liao recreated the Sian Dragoons. They were first seen in combat during [[Operation GREAT FLOOD]]. The Strategios used the Sian Dragoons, broken down into battalion sized formations, as part of a large misdirection project. During the early part of GREAT FLOOD, the [[RAF]] was fooled into thinking that there were twelve regiments of Sian Dragoons. The Republic's intelligence service was able to correct this misconception in [[3135]] and discovered that there were only four active Dragoon regiments.<ref name="FM:3145p36">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 36: "Sian Dragoons" - Brigade information as of 3145</ref> − − ===2nd Andurien War=== − Many regiments of the Sian Dragoons participated in the [[2nd Andurien War]]. − − ===Succession Wars=== − Little is known of the Brigade's actions during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] other than that they no longer existed by the end of the [[Third Succession War]].<ref name=FM3145p36/> − − ===Re-formation=== − The Sian Dragoons brigade was re-formed sometime between [[3113]] and [[3134]] as one of the [[Hidden Lion]] brigades resurrected by [[Chancellor]] [[Daoshen Liao]] using stockpiled equipment.<ref name=FM3145p36/> The new Sian Dragoons used the [[Augmented Regiment]] formations commonly found in the [[CCAF]] by [[3145]].<ref name=FM:3145p27>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 27: "General Review"</ref> They were the front-line regiments of the [[Tikonov Commonality]].<ref name="FM:3145p28">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 28: "The New Old-Fashioned Way"</ref> − − ===Operation GREAT FLOOD=== − Their brigade participated in [[Operation GREAT FLOOD]], where their appearance for their first active deployment they would continually use different regiment designation to make appearance that 4 regiment strong brigade was large than it already was.
