History

First Succession War

The Twentieth Dieron Regulars were one of thirty-one regiments of Dieron Regulars to be created by the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery after 2765.[3] The Dieron Regulars expanded by ten regiments during the Amaris Civil War,[2] and a further twenty-one regiments were raised between the end of the Civil War and the end of the First Succession War. Of the latter twenty-one regiments, eight were formed by recruiting Star League Defense Force personnel and units whilst the remainder - including the Twentieth - were recruited more conventionally.[3]

Third Succession War

In the second decade of the thirtieth century, the Twentieth Dieron Regulars, along with the Second Sword of Light and Fourth Proserpina Hussars, headed a massive multiregiment assault on the Tamar Pact under the overall command of General Tugima Travison. This assault, which launched in March 2915, took advantage of the defending Steiner forces paralysis and insecurity. Despite this, by October 2915, the Twentieth and other DCMS troops were forced off of Tamar.[4]
