Commander Sigmund Sauer was a MechWarrior, who served in the Hanseatic Defense Force's Command Company Schmidt's Petraries, as of 3140.[2]

History[edit]

Lyran Commonwealth[edit]

A veteran of the Lyran Commonwealth's conflicts with the Clan Wolf and Clan Jade Falcon, he left the Inner Sphere following the Blackout, arriving in tbe Hanseatic League in 3136.[1]

Hanseatic League[edit]

On arrival in the League Sauer's expertise in Clan tactics was highly valued, earning him a role in Schmidt's Petraries, the Command Company of the Captain-Marshal of the Hanseatic Defense Force. He was tasked with training the unit in how to fight against the Clans, often taking the role of the commander of the Clan OpFor in their training exercises, leading a mock Star or Trinary.

Sauer put his Clan experience to good use in 3139, when the Scorpion Empire's Hellion Galaxy raided Novgorod, while the Petraries were on world training Regional Defense Force 9. With the help of Sauer's training, the Petraries corralled the Hellions, and drove them into retreat. Sauer was promoted to Commander the next day, and had hopes of Battalion command in the near future[1], though as of 3140 he remained a member of the Schwere Kavallerielanze (i.e. Heavy Cavalry Lance) within Schmidt's Petraries.[2]

BattleMech[edit]

Sauer was known to have piloted a DRG-1N Dragon BattleMech.[2]
