Unit Description
XXX Corps (or the Thirtieth Corps) was one of the seventy-two Corps that made up the Star League Defense Force. Prior to the collapse of the Star League XXX Corps consisted of 5 divisions and 2 independent regiments. [1]
History
In 2764 XXX Corps was part of the 12th Army, assigned to District 2 of the Lyran Commonwealth Military Region. When the simmering violence and rebellion building in the Periphery erupted with the New Vandenberg Uprising and subsequent Periphery-wide uprising in 2765 XXX Corps was deployed into into the Periphery Military Region along with the rest of the 12th Army.[1]
XXX Corps took substantial losses in the Periphery Uprising, losing the 97th Mechanized Infantry Division and the 51st Hussar Regiment before the end of the campaign. The reduced XXX Corps then fought through the Hegemony Campaign, taking heavy damage; the Jotun Division and the Brights of Brewler were both destroyed outright, and the 118th Mechanized Infantry Division had to be disbanded as a result of the losses taken during the campaign.[1]
Of the units that were still intact in 2784, the Chara Division elected to follow General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus. Although it is known that the 123rd Mechanized Infantry Division survived the 12-year campaign to free the Hegemony, it's final fate is currently unknown.[1]
