| − | In [[2788]] the Prefectorate Guard was deployed along with the [[Ariana Grenadiers]] to wrest control of [[Tyrfing]] away from the [[Free Worlds League]]. A former provincial capital under the [[Terran Hegemony]], Tyrfing had been devastated in [[2777]] by the campaign to liberate the planet, with the [[Amaris Empire Armed Forces]] making wide use of chemical, nuclear and biological weapons against the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[5th Army (Star League)|Fifth Army]] until the [[SLDF]] final offensive broke the defenders via orbital bombardment from the [[12th Fleet ( | + | In [[2788]] the Prefectorate Guard was deployed along with the [[Ariana Grenadiers]] to wrest control of [[Tyrfing]] away from the [[Free Worlds League]]. A former provincial capital under the [[Terran Hegemony]], Tyrfing had been devastated in [[2777]] by the campaign to liberate the planet, with the [[Amaris Empire Armed Forces]] making wide use of chemical, nuclear and biological weapons against the [[Star League Defense Force]] [[5th Army (Star League)|Fifth Army]] until the [[SLDF]] final offensive broke the defenders via orbital bombardment from the [[12th Fleet (SLDF)|Twelfth Fleet]] and tactical nuclear strikes. The widespread use of WMDs, accompanied by numerous toxic leaks from ravaged industrial facilities, had poisoned Tyrfing extensively. The SLDF had evacuated much of the population, but the population of Tyrfing was continuing to decline; the Free Worlds League had decided that there was likely to be enough by way of technology and salvage on Tyrfing to make it worth seizing the planet, and had garrisoned it with forces that included three [[BattleMech]] regiments - the [[Twenty-third Marik Militia]] and the [[3rd Oriente Hussars|Third]] and [[Seventh Oriente Hussars]]. What the [[CCAF]] didn't predict was that every other [[Great House]] would also attempt to seize Tyrfing from the Free Worlds League at almost the same time.<ref name="FSWp110">''First Succession War'', p. 110, "The Tyrfing Holocaust"</ref> |
| − | The Prefectorate Guard and Ariana Grenadiers arrived on Tyrfing in July 2788, within days of the arrival of the [[Seventh Donegal Guards]] and the [[Stealths]] - the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] having decided to act on the same rumors of SLDF weapons caches and the potential reactivation of the [[SDS]] network by the [[FWLM]] that had prompted the CCAF to invade the planet, and soon the Prefectorate Guard were embroiled in battles with both the League and Lyran units. In late August the [[Fourth Davion Guards]] and the [[Fifth Dragonlords]] landed on Tyrfing, sent by the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] as part of a desperate attempt to acquire Star League technologies that could be used to help stem the massive invasion of the [[Federated Suns]] launched by the [[Draconis Combine]].

The [[DCMS]] in turn deployed the [[Eighth Sword of Light]] and the [[Black Sharks]] mercenary regiment (the Black Sharks being the former [[Twenty-third Amaris Dragoons]]) to either thwart the [[AFFS]] efforts or seize anything valuable themselves. The resulting five-way campaign finished the planetary devastation begun during the [[Amaris Civil War]]. By the time everyone other than the League forces had left in February 2789, none of the industrialized cities was left, the civilian population was at eight million and dropping fast, and the conventional infantry forces supporting each of the 'Mech regiments had taken ninety percent casualties - or worse.<ref name="FSWp110"/> |

During this period the Guards also traveled to the [[Magistracy of Canopus]] to assist that nation against the [[Marian Hegemony]]. The commanding officer of the Prefectorate Guard at the time, ''[[Sang-shao]]'' [[Jorgen Nerekov]], was an accomplished engineer who consulted and assisted Victoria-based [[Shengli Arms]] with the design of the ''[[Jinggau]]'' [[BattleMech]]. Nerekov's involvement with Shengli was instrumental maintaining good relations between the CCAF and the manufacturer, also allowing the Prefectorate Guards to obtain the latest designs from both Shengli as well as [[Hellespont Industries]] on their homeworld of Sian.<ref name=FMCCp54/> |

With one officer cashiered and an increasingly-incoherent ''Sang-shao'' Nerekov pushed into retirement, ''Sang-shao'' Nan Loen assumed formal command of the Guard; Loen enforced high standards of discipline and decorum within the Guard, and made it abundantly clear that the insubordination which had occurred under Nerekov wouldn't be tolerated under his command. By [[3085]] Loen had transferred seventeen [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] out of his command for failing to meet his standards.<ref name="FM:3085p">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 23, "Prefectorate Guard"</ref> In [[3113]] the Guard faced elements of [[Stone's Lament]] on Sarna.

In contrast, the infantry attached to the Guard became highly proficient at the tasks involved in their new posting - urban combat, counter-insurgency work and personal security. With some of the highest-ranking members of the Capellan government being guarded by members of the Guard infantry on a regular basis a disconnect emerged between the 'Mech and infantry forces, with the infantry commander vocally espousing the opinion that the Guard's 'Mech forces were holding the infantry back.<ref name="FM:3145p30">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 30, "Prefectorate Guard"</ref> |
