The Kingston Caballeros or Kingston's Caballeros was a "notable" mercenary BattleMech unit employed by the Draconis Combine[1][2] and the Lyran Commonwealth[3] the mid thirty-first century.

History[edit]
The Caballeros were stationed on Sabik at the start of the Fourth Succession War. Forced off that world by Barrett's Fusiliers, they quickly rebuilt on Moore and returned to Sabik. The Caballeros then forced the Fusiliers to retreat to Lyran space with heavy losses.[4]
The 24th Lyran Guards assaulted Sabik later in 3029 and though the Caballeros were able to destroy a company of Lyran 'Mechs, the mercenary forces withdrew.[5]
In 3050 the unit was stationed on Lima under contract with the Federated Commonwealth.[6]
