History
Formed in 3059 the V Legion was primarily staffed by soldiers drawn from the Illyrian area. These troops were later deployed to the Lothian League as the Hegemony took control of those worlds. To make up losses in other Legions, the V Legion lost a cohort of MechWarriors and two cohorts of conventional forces. These troops were replaced by Lothians who were eager to join the Marian Legions. Most of these troops were assigned to auxiliary units supporting the V Legion. They spent much of their time in the Lothan district working to repair infrastructure.[1] During the brief war between the Marian Hegemony and Circinus Federation, V Legio remained as the garrison force for the Lothan district. After that fighting ended however the V Legio was faced with several raids and spoiling attacks thought to be executed by Word of Blake-sponsored units in retaliation.[2]
The Fifth Legion spent the Jihad garrisoning the Lothan district. In 3079 they were stationed on Lothario. The Imperator of the Legions informed the Caesar that at this same time, the Fifth was consuming far too many supplies and had far too few soldiers for the number of recruits that were accepted. The Imperator had no evidence, but suspected that the Fifth was funneling these troops and supplies to a Lothan resistance movement.[3]
