History[edit]

The Dark Age[edit]

Anton's Stompers was a mercenary unit whose origins are unknown that during the Dark Age was operating out of Fletcher. The unit had added a company of SM2s to its artillery battalion, giving them a fast-reaction force to support its older generation Long Tom batteries.[1]

The Stompers participated on a Capellan-sponsored raid of Sonnia in 3136. The SM2s proved invaluable as they conducted a slow-paced move-and-fire operation around the main starport. The constant barrage kept the inexperienced Davion militia from intercepting the Seventh Capellan Chargers as they destroyed a large stockpile of munitions and equipment believed designated for Tikonov, though it was later discovered the warehouses destroyed were filled with medicines and foodstuffs earmarked for Basalt.[1]

Anton's Stompers know how to make the best use of this otherwise average support tank.[1]
