The Second Al Na'ir Protectorate Militia is one of the many militias raised by the Word of Blake to defend the Word of Blake Protectorate; the unit was deployed on Al Na'ir. As of 3075, three units had raised from this planet, the First, the Second and the Third.[1]
History[edit]
Al Na'ir was not easily cowed. During the Jihad, the Word of Blake sent large numbers of aerospace fighter-carrying DropShips and Pocket WarShips to the system. These Blakist units scoured the asteroid belts, destroying the Yori 'Mech Works assembly lines and inflicting severe losses on the population by destroying their domed cities.[2] By mid-March 3069, Al Na'ir had been conquered by the Blakists and incorporated into the Word of Blake Protectorate.[3]
Nevertheless, the Word of Blake raised three divisions of local troops for its defense.[1]
Having been occupied by the Word of Blake, Al Na'ir was targeted for liberation by the allied coalition assembled by Devlin Stone. Coalition forces assaulted Al Na'ir on the 1st of July 3076 as one of four planetary assaults on Protectorate worlds that took place simultaneously, with the other strikes targeting the Rio, Rochelle and Van Diemen IV systems.[4][5]

Tactics[edit]
Unknown.
Composition History[edit]
Protectorate Militia Divisions were equipped with enough DropShip capacity for transportation, but not JumpShips.[6]
Rules[edit]
As long as a Protectorate Militia force is fighting on its homeworld and is acting as the scenario's Defender, the Protectorate Militia force receives the Force the Initiative and Off-Map Movement special abilities. If deployed as the Attacker in a scenario, the Protectorate Militia force loses its Force the Initiative ability, but retains its Off-Map Movement capability.
If deployed on a world other than its homeworld (such as an Epsilon Eridani force being deployed on Genoa), the Protectorate Militia force not only loses all of its special abilities, but also suffers a –2 Initiative modifier.
Although Blakist-based, Protectorate Militia forces may use standard Inner Sphere force arrangements (Lances, Companies, and Battalions) rather than Word of Blake force arrangements.[7]
