History

The Dark Ages

In 3145, as the Principes Guards were rebuilt alongside the other units of the Republic Armed Forces, the Twelfth Principes Guards found itself under a certain amount of scrutiny. A significant proportion of the Twelfth's personnel were former corporate security personnel who had worked for Kressly Technologies before retiring in the wake of an incident involving a spy from the Capellan Confederation.[1]

All of the former Kressly personnel underwent security checks administered by the Department of Military Intelligence and were cleared for service, but the Twelfth was still regarded with suspicion by many. Following the relocation of the Twelfth to the Epsilon Indi system the commanding officer - Colonel Sadia Okeke - hoped that the change in garrison posting would give the regiment an opportunity to reduce the tension associated with the Kressly scandal and thereby allow her to concentrate on developing the Twelfth as a cohesive unit.[1]

The Eleventh and Twelfth Principes took part in the Republic's successful liberation of Robinson for the Federated Suns. Two lances of the fearsome Marauder IIC drawn from the Eleventh and Twelfth Principes would brutally savage the Draconis Combine's elite Seventh Sword of Light during the siege of Bueller, downing over fifteen Seventh Sword 'Mechs. Reinforcements from the First Ghost and Ryuken-go would ultimately cost half the attacking Principes Marauder IICs, but the remainder held the line long enough for additional Republic forces to arrive and smash the Combine flanks.[2]
