History[edit]
Formation and Third Succession War[edit]
The unit was formed from people recruited from the worlds of Liao and New Florence. The unit saw its first action in 2985 on Genoa. The unit fended off a Davion deep-strike by elements of the Forty-second Avalon Hussars. Though the Secutors were unable to stop the Forty-second’s heavy BattleMechs, the Secutors were able to destroy three Locust recon 'Mechs without damage.[1]
In 2987, the unit conducted a raid against the world of Aosia, which was defended by the Forty-second Avalon Hussars. The Hussars managed to damage the Secutors' light 'Mech assets. However, the Secutors' motorized infantry managed to stymie the Hussar defense by overruning the Hussar communication center. [citation needed]
Trimaldi's Secutors took part in the Battle of New Aragon in 3008. They faced elements of the Crucis Lancers and Avalon Hussars.[2]
The unit was dispatched to the world of Thomas, in 3011, with Waco Rangers as support. The unit again defended against the Forty-second Avalon Hussars. The Duke of Thomas, Colonel Pavel Ridzik, took command of all Capellan units on planet to break the Davion siege of the planet. In the process of pushing the Forty-Second off planet, the regiment captured an entire lance of Phoenix Hawk medium 'Mechs, for the cost of a Marauder.[3]
Fourth Succession War and Defection[edit]
In the Fourth Succession War, most of the First Battalion was destroyed on Zurich, the only company that escaped was later destroyed on Kawich where it took part in Operation RIPOSTE. The Second Battalion was stationed on Bharat but wasn't engaged in any fights. The Second Battalion later surrendered on Kawich where it had taken part in Operation Riposte, Battle of Kawich and became part of the Second Republican. The Third Battalion took heavy casualties in the failed defense of New Canton.
