The Eighteenth Amaris Chasseurs was a BattleMech regiment of the Rim Worlds Army.

History[edit]

During the Amaris Civil War, Stefan Amaris assigned administrative control over the northeastern section of Terra's North American continent to the despised Eighteenth Amaris Chasseurs, of which its sadistic soldiers were commanded by the equally-evil Gunthar von Strang. The Eighteenth looted cities, killed civilians for fun, and deprived all survivors of even the most basic human rights.[1]

The Eighteenth was one of the last 'Mech forces the Star League Defense Force defeated in the Civil War.[2] During the last days of the war, when the SLDF was liberating Terra, the Eighteenth attempted to flee via the La Guardia Spaceport and was crushed by the 146th Royal BattleMech Division.[1]
