−	The Capellan regiment was formed from several Commando [[Battalion]]s, finally forming over the course of a few years by [[2810]].  The unit was destroyed just after its formation in [[2812]] when it participated in retaking the Davion held world of [[Chesterton]].  The unit was mauled by the [[3rd Crucis Lancers|Third]] and [[Fifth Crucis Lancers]], along with its sister units [[Cochraine's Goliaths]], [[First Ariana Fusiliers|First]] and [[Second Ariana Fusiliers]].<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation'', p. 47, "Proffered Hand" - Vincent's Commandos among many of the regimental forces trying to take Chesterton in 2812.</ref>	+	The Capellan regiment was formed from serval Commando [[Battalion]]s, finally forming over course of few years by [[2810]].  The unit was destroyed just after its formation in [[2812]] when it partipated in retaking of Davion held world of [[Chesterton]].  The unit was mauled by the [[3rd Crucis Lancers|3rd]] and [[5th Crucis Lancers]], along with its sister units [[Cochraine's Goliaths]], [[1st Ariana Fusiliers|1st]] and [[2nd Ariana Fusiliers]].<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation'', p. 47, "Proffered Hand" - Vincent's Commandos among many of the regimental forces trying take Chesterton in 2812.</ref>

−	In [[2830]], that new mobility was put to the test and succeeded in defeating the Marik mercenary unit, [[Nathan's Irregulars]] on [[Ling]].

−	In the [[Third Succession War]], the unit was deployed on the Capellan March border, helping to fend off a number of minor incursions staged by [[House Davion]].  It then was shifted to [[House Marik|Marik]], in [[2965]].

−	The unit's last major engagement of the Third Succession War was in [[2995]], against elements of the [[Regulan Hussars]] on the Marik world of [[Berenson]], in a surprisingly equal conflict. The Commandos managed to catch the Hussars just as the Hussars were preparing to raid the Liao world of [[Thomas]], which would eventually turn into a six-hour running engagement.  At many times during the battle, the Commandos and Hussars fought hand-to-hand in brief close quarters clashes.  The battle turned into victory for the Commandos, nearly destroying the entire unit, including killing its commanding officer, Colonel [[Leo Michalmas Brassard]].	+	The unit last major engagement of Third Succession War in [[2995]], against elements of the [[Regulan Hussars]] on Marik world of [[Berenson]].  This was another attempt in their raiding Marik worlds, they found themselves an surprisinely equal opponent.
