Unit Description
The First Kavalleri is Clan-Style military formation the is deployed by the Clan Ghost Bear in Rasalhague Dominion. Utilizing Combined-Arms, the unit specialized using fast hover craft and speedy 'Mechs.[1]
History
Formation
After the absorption of the Free Rasalhague Republic in 3070 by Ghost Bear Dominion, the KungsArme was slowly transition into Clan Ghost Bear's Touman.[2]
To honor the Rasalhague past, the Ghost Bears reformed First Kavalleri as part of their new Polar Galaxy in 3072. They staffed the new Cluster with former members of the KungsArme. However, these soldiers would undergo a Trial of Position to retain their "warrior" ranks in the new reorganization of KungsArme. Reborn First Kavalleri's members would be full of tensions as some former Republic soldiers would loose their positions within the cluster.[3][4]
Rebellion and Aftermath
In Mid-October of 3076, First Kavalleri and Second Freeman staged a rebellion on their respective worlds. Twenty percent of the Kavalleri's former KungsArmé MechWarriors had failed their Trials of Position and were being ordered to reassigned to lesser roles in the new Clan structure force including forced to under take civilian tasks. Having fought for many years in the KungsArmé for Free Rasalhague Republic, they felt they had well earned their position as fighting soldiers and refused stand down to lesser roles. First Kavalleri's animosity to these orders cause other former KungsArmé units begin show discontent in their ranks. By November, Rasalhague Galaxy was recalled fighting the Jihadist in the Word of Blake's Protectorate to put down the Rebellion. The 1st Rasalhague Bears would land on Satalice to confront the First Kavalleri. It would take a week of negotiations to convince the Kavalleri to peacefully stand down. This decision would Spared the unit from near-total destruction that their fellow rebel unit, the Second Freeman would receive. Key personal who sparked the rebellion would be arrested from the Kavalleri, the unit self would be allowed to remain on roosters due to their importance to Rasalhague people, but with new troops to replacing the old.[5]
After the Cluster rebels were seperated from the rest of the Cluster, it was restaffed. By 3079 the unit's morale was at a all time low, with little new equipment being assigned to the unit due to actions during the rebellion while it was stationed on Radlje. As a what appears to have been precautionary move by 3085, the Cluster would be reassigning them to the Oriente which was more loyal to the pro-Clan rule.[6][7]
Second Combine-Dominion War
During the Second Combine-Dominion War, the Cluster had still been station on Orestes. The unit's fight strength had significately improved since the Jihad. Khan Aletha Kabrinski had order the First along with other defensive Clusters to take up defensive positions around significate industries that could be potentially attacked by the Draconis Combine and their Clan Nova Cat allies. The First was charged defending Janesek Industries and Odin Manufacturing, they would start build defensive fortification and earthworks around the complexes.
In late April of 3099, a raiding force would arrive via a pirate point consisting of the Second Legion of Vega. Originally intended as quick raid against Odin's main facilities located on Oreste's continent of Clytemnestra. Unfortunately for the First Kavalleri, the raid had caught them before they could reinforce their existing defensive bulwarks around Odin. Second's commander, Tai-sa Youta Nakahara, saw opportunity to inflict more damage against Ghost Bear factory complete. Tai-sa Nakahara would deployed his supporting conventional regiments help encircle the Odin, having them destroy ground and rail links to factory complex to isolate them. The Kavalleri found themselves underseige by Vegan's armor units of the Fifty-third Vegan Lancers and Legion's main Mech forces.
The cluster would hold firm against the Vegan's attacks by using their positions behind reinforced walls and Mech bunkers. During the course of the six day battle, the Kavalleris take heavy casualties when Tai-sa Nakahara ordered a artillery bombardment of their positions and that of the factory. To keep Kuritas at bay, the Kavalleri would sallies to deterred the Kuritas' attempt from breach their offensives. By April 31st, the Second Legion would withdraw from the planet. Effectively knocked out of the war, the battle had left the First was reduced to Binaries of ’Mechs and battle armor. Kavalleri would slowly begin to rebuild starting in October when Odin's Shadow Hawk production line began resume operations.[8]
After Gray Monday
After the fall of the HPG network, the First Kavalleri was assigned to Christian Månsdottir School of Combat. There they would be used as Opposition Force help train the students of the school in handling raids done by Hell's Horses and Clan Jade Falcon's combat units using their new Mongol tactics.[9]

As of 3076, the commanding officer of the First Kavalleri was Galaxy Commander Amy Findlay.[10][11]
As of 3145, the commanding officer of the First Kavalleri was Galaxy Commander Sjur Isakson[12]
Tactics
As with all Kavalleri Clusters, the First soldiers are train in using misdirection and ambush tactics. This is due to the light weight of the Cluster's touman which focus on hovercraft type combat vehicles and speedy fast 'Mechs.[13]
