History[edit]
A veteran MechWarrior, Captain Grover Anderson led Grover's Heavy Guard during the Clan Invasion era, securing a high-paying contract with the Draconis Combine. Stationed on Burton, setting off to raid a supply depot on Clan Smoke Jaguar-held Port Arthur defended by the 168th Garrison Cluster. Despite being a veteran commander, Captain Anderson dangerously underestimated the threat of even second-line Clan troops despite the warnings of newly recruited MechWarrior Maxophilia Rubinsky.[2] [1] [3]
Ignoring Rubinsky's advice, Anderson ordered the Heavy Guard to attack the Jaguars head-on, walking the unit straight into the waiting guns of a Smoke Jaguar Binary. Compounding his grave error, Anderson ordered concentrated fire in response, freeing the Jaguars from Zellbrigen who promptly responded by returning concentrated fire upon his Cyclops and killing him within moments. It was only through the pre-planning and skill of Maxophilia Rubinsky who took command of the survivors that even half the Heavy Guard were saved from Anderson's grievous blunder. With the survivors following Rubinsky's lead, Grover Anderson's Grover's Heavy Guard became Rubinsky's Renegades.[2] [1] [3]
