The 4674th Striker Regiment was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army.

History[edit]

In 2764, the unit was attached to the 120th Jump Infantry Division, assigned as part of XXXIX Corps, Tenth Army to District 3 of the Free Worlds League Military Region but was transferred to an undisclosed district within the Periphery in 2765. The 120th survived the Periphery Uprising and the Hegemony Campaign, and though the Division embarked on the Exodus with Aleksandr Kerensky in 2784, the 4674th chose to remain in the Inner Sphere, aligning with the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery.[2]

Having recruited the 4674th, the DCMS redesignated the regiment as the Twenty-ninth Dieron Regulars in 2784; the Twenty-ninth was one of eight regiments of Dieron Regulars raised from former SLDF personnel by the Combine.[1]
