History[edit]

As part of the Sian Dragoons, the First Sian Dragoons were a part of the largest BattleMech brigade in the history of the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces - both during the Age of War, and then again in the closing decades of the Star League era as the CCAF began rapidly expanding and reactivating regiments - and a regiment that could trace its origins back to when the first WAM-B BattleMechs were issued to support the tanks of the Sian Lancers.[2]

The First Sian Dragoons were responsible for defending the Capellan Confederation's capital city when the Chancellor wasn't in residence. They often coordinated with the Red Lancers to handle security responsibilities. In 2765 they were stationed on Lukla.[2]

The First Sian Dragoons were destroyed during the First Succession War.[1]
