Formed at the same time as the prestigious showpiece [[First St. Ives Lancers]], the Second saw extensive action in the defense of the [[St. Ives Mercantile Association]] and along the [[Capellan Confederation]]'s southern quarter, fending off pirates while also engaging in occasional rear-area raids against [[House Marik]]. <ref name=HLp88>''House Liao (Capellan Confederation)'', p. 88, "2nd St. Ives Lancers"</ref>

Like all the Lancer units, for much of its history a large proportion of the Second's troops were either of minor noble lineage or well-connected with St. Ives's major business interests, facts that ensured the unit wanted for nothing with regards material and supplies. Those who assumed the Second's troops were weak-willed and spoiled brats that could barely fight quickly learned otherwise, with a [[Lorix Order]]-inspired devotion to chivalric duty, deep pride in their abilities and regular public training duels ensure the Second St. Ives Lancers kept their skills honed to a fine edge. The Second generally drew the youngest and brashest duelists among the Lancers, a fact that also ensured it was among the Armored Cavalry's primary offensive units. Using the nickname of ''The Ivory Stallions'' as of [[2765]], at that time the Second St. Ives Lancers were stationed on the [[St. Ives Commonality]] world of [[Knutdor]]. <ref name=FR2765CCAF-14>''Field Report 2765: CCAF'', p. 14 "St. Ives Armored Cavalry"</ref>

Toward the end of the [[Third Succession War]], the Lancers defended [[Verlo]] in [[2970]] against the [[Federated Suns]]'s [[Syrtis Fusiliers]] and captured the [[Gordon's Highland Light]] [[mercenary unit]] during a recon raid on [[Pinard]] in [[3002]], adding twelve rare ''[[Panther]]''s to the Lancers' 2nd Battalion.<ref name=HLp88/>

The Second were stationed on [[Kittery]] when the world was targeted for conquest by the Federated Suns in [[3005]]. Unwilling to lose the Second against a larger Davion invasion force, the [[Capellan Confederation Armed Forces]] chose to pull back the line of "[[Elastic Defense]]" to [[Vestallas]] and [[Taga]] and ordered the Lancers to withdraw. Confronted with [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] seeking to destroy the unit, the Lancer's withdrawal seemed doomed until the planet's militia stepped forward to delay the Davion forces and allow the Second to escape. <ref name=TRO3039-42>''Technical Readout: 3039'', p. 42 "Hunter Light Support Tank"</ref>

In [[3010]] the Lancers defended the important agricultural world of [[St. Loris]] against two of the elite [[Ceti Hussars]]. While inflicting heavy damage on the Davion raiders and being decorated by [[Chancellor]] [[Maximilian Liao]], the Lancers felt their defeat deeply. As of [[3025]], the Lancers three battalions were split up, defending [[St. Ives]], [[Maladar]] and St. Loris respectively.<ref name=HLp105>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 105, "Deployment Table - 3025"</ref>

The First [[Battalion]] of the Second Lancers was the Compact's contribution to [[Task Force Serpent]], the reborn [[Star League]]'s assault on the [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] homeworld of [[Huntress]], after it was deemed more important to keep their first choice, the [[1st St. Ives Lancers]] and its commander [[Kai Allard-Liao]], visible in the Inner Sphere.<ref name=TOTC1>''Twilight of the Clans'', p. 9</ref><ref>''The Hunters'', pp. 112-113</ref>

In preparation for the [[Smoke Jaguar]] counter-assault, General [[Ariana Winston]] assigned the Second Lancers to the northern army tasked with protecting the Smoke Jaguar genetics repository and Mount Szabo, two sites sacred to the Jaguars, along side the [[Eridani Light Horse]] and [[2nd Division (ComStar)|2nd Com Guard Division]]. Assigned to defend the SLDF headquarters and form a ready reserve, the Lancers came under attack by a Jaguar flanking action when Clan forces withdrawing from the Com Guards stumbled directly into their positions, triggering a collapse which allowed the enemy to regain control of the capital Lootera.<ref name=TOTC3>''Twilight of the Clans'', p. 12,34</ref>  Along with the rest of the northern army, the Lancers was pressed back into the Jaguar's Fang mountains, being effectively annihilated after an Clan assault on raid on their base camp. Between the casualties was Major [[Marcus Poling]], commanding officer of the Lancers, was executed after eject from his Mech. The lancers were reduced to a handful of infantry and their sole functioning [[BattleMech]], a [[Victor]], who was also destroyed in the last battle of Task Force Serpent, just before [[Victor Steiner-Davion]] led relief force arrived to carry the day. <ref name=TOTC4>''Twilight of the Clans'', p. 13</ref>

Back in the Inner Sphere as hostilities between the Confederation and Compact increased in [[3061]], the bulk of the Lancers formed the [[SIMC]] mobile reserve, broken into task forces to act as reinforcements as needed. As losses mounted, the Second took on the critical role of delivering supplies and equipment to fellow Compact units in hostile battles across the front. While the Compact ultimately fell, the Second Lancers were credited as the reason the defeated nation lasted as long as it did.<ref name=FMCCp83>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 83</ref>

Like many former Compact units, but. Now stationed on Teng, between receiving advanced graduation of cadets from the [[St. Ives Academy Training Group]], survivors from the shattered [[St. Ives Cheveau Legers]] and shipment of equipment built on [[St. Ives]], [[Indicass]] and [[Warlock]], the Second Lancers have completed rebuilding from the losses suffered in Clan space and against the Confederation, even adding a much needed third [[regiment]] to its armored command. <ref name=FMUp29>''Field Manual: Update'', p. 29, "2nd St. Ives Lancers Unit"</ref>

The Second St. Ives Lancers participated in [[Operation THUNDERSTRIKE]], the Capellan Confederation's response to the Capellan March invasion of their land. They landed on [[New Syrtis]] and fought the [[Vanguard Legion]] and the [[3rd Ceti Hussars]]. They were on [[St. Ives]] when the [[Word of Blake]] struck, and sustained heavy losses.

In the [[Victoria War]] the Second St. Ives Lancers seized the [[Gurnet]] system, then faced the [[8th Avalon Hussars]] on [[Spica]].

Assigned to take the Capellan March world of [[Atlas (planet)|Atlas]] during the initial waves of [[Operation CELESTIAL REWARD]], with the Second St. Ives Lancers featuring more assault 'Mechs than any other CCAF regiment, the Second Lancers easily out-massed the defending [[2nd Syrtis Fusiliers|Second Syrtis Fusiliers]] [[LCT]]. Briefly engaged by the Fusiliers' lighter but far more maneuverable 'Mech forces, the Davion unit held the Lancers in place long enough for Second Fusiliers' company of [[Arrow IV]]-equipped [[Yellow Jacket]] VTOLs and [[Paladin (SuperHeavy Artillery)|Paladin]] artillery vehicles to inflict heavy damage and casualties on the Second Lancers, buying time to withdraw off-world. Remaining as the garrison of Atlas, with all the unit's casualties inflicted by the Davion artillery, the Second's CO actively looked towards better ways of combating it in future, requesting both additional air support and an artillery company for counter-battery fire. <ref name=FM3145-37>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 37 "Capellan Confederation - St. Ives Armored Cavalry - Second St. Ives Lancers"</ref> <ref name=FM3145-78>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 78 "Federated Suns - Capellan March Brigade - Second Syrtis Fusiliers"</ref>

Regarded as the Armored Cavalry's workhorse unit for most of its history, the Second St. Ives Lancers are renowned for their bravery in the face of superior numbers.

History[edit]

Formation to Star League era[edit]

Formed at the same time as the prestigious showpiece First St. Ives Lancers, the Second saw extensive action in the defense of the St. Ives Mercantile Association and along the Capellan Confederation's southern quarter, fending off pirates while also engaging in occasional rear-area raids against House Marik.[2]

Like all the Lancer units, for much of its history a large proportion of the Second's troops were either of minor noble lineage or well-connected with St. Ives' major business interests, facts that ensured the unit wanted for nothing with regard to matériel and supplies. Those who assumed the Second's troops were weak-willed and spoiled brats that could barely fight quickly learned otherwise, with a Lorix Order–inspired devotion to chivalric duty, deep pride in their abilities and regular public training duels ensure the Second St. Ives Lancers kept their skills honed to a fine edge. The Second generally drew the youngest and brashest duelists among the Lancers, a fact that also ensured it was among the Armored Cavalry's primary offensive units. Using the nickname of The Ivory Stallions as of 2765, at that time the Second St. Ives Lancers were stationed on the St. Ives Commonality world of Knutdor.[3]

Early Succession Wars[edit]

Toward the end of the Third Succession War, the Lancers defended Verlo in 2970 against the Federated Suns' Syrtis Fusiliers and captured the Gordon's Highland Light mercenary unit during a recon raid on Pinard in 3002, adding twelve rare Panthers to the Lancers' Second Battalion.[2]

The Second were stationed on Kittery when the world was targeted for conquest by the Federated Suns in 3005. Unwilling to lose the Second against a larger Davion invasion force, the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces chose to pull back the line of "Elastic Defense" to Vestallas and Taga and ordered the Lancers to withdraw. Confronted with Armed Forces of the Federated Suns seeking to destroy the unit, the Lancers' withdrawal seemed doomed until the planet's militia stepped forward to delay the Davion forces and allow the Second to escape.[4]

In 3010 the Lancers defended the important agricultural world of St. Loris against two of the elite Ceti Hussars. While inflicting heavy damage on the Davion raiders and being decorated by Chancellor Maximilian Liao, the Lancers felt their defeat deeply. As of 3025, the Lancers three battalions were split up, defending St. Ives, Maladar and St. Loris respectively.[5]

Fourth Succession War to Clan Invasion[edit]

During the Fourth Succession War, the complete Second was stationed on St. Ives alongside the First Lancers, surviving the conflict intact it defected to the newly formed St. Ives Compact.[6]

The Second was reconfigured after the Fourth Succession War into brigade size. As of 3054 the Second Lancers were stationed alongside the First Lancers on the Compact capital of St. Ives, but in the wake of the Clan Invasion were redeployed to the Compact world of Teng, remaining there as of 3054.[7][8]

Task Force Serpent[edit]

The First Battalion of the Second Lancers was the Compact's contribution to Task Force Serpent, the reborn Star League's assault on the Clan Smoke Jaguar homeworld of Huntress, after it was deemed more important to keep their first choice, the First St. Ives Lancers and its commander Kai Allard-Liao, visible in the Inner Sphere.[9][10]

During the initial assault on Huntress, the Lancers were assigned to take a Clan Smoke Jaguar training base on the continent of Abysmal with the Fourth Drakøns, both units eliminating the scant resistance at the almost deserted base with minimal losses.[11]

In preparation for the Smoke Jaguar counterassault, General Ariana Winston assigned the Second Lancers to the northern army tasked with protecting the Smoke Jaguar genetics repository and Mount Szabo, two sites sacred to the Jaguars, alongside the Eridani Light Horse and Second Com Guard Division. Assigned to defend the SLDF headquarters and form a ready reserve, the Lancers came under attack by a Jaguar flanking action when Clan forces withdrawing from the Com Guards stumbled directly into their positions, triggering a collapse which allowed the enemy to regain control of the capital Lootera.[12] Along with the rest of the northern army, the Lancers was pressed back into the Jaguar's Fang Mountains, being effectively annihilated after a Clan assault on raid on their base camp. Between the casualties was Major Marcus Poling, commanding officer of the Lancers, was executed after eject from his 'Mech. The Lancers were reduced to a handful of infantry and their sole functioning BattleMech, a Victor, who was also destroyed in the last battle of Task Force Serpent, just before Victor Steiner-Davion led relief force arrived to carry the day.[13]

Xin Sheng Campaign[edit]

Back in the Inner Sphere as hostilities between the Confederation and Compact increased in 3061, the bulk of the Lancers formed the SIMC mobile reserve, broken into task forces to act as reinforcements as needed. As losses mounted, the Second took on the critical role of delivering supplies and equipment to fellow Compact units in hostile battles across the front. While the Compact ultimately fell, the Second Lancers were credited as the reason the defeated nation lasted as long as it did.[14]

Like many former Compact units, but. Now stationed on Teng, between receiving advanced graduation of cadets from the St. Ives Academy Training Group, survivors from the shattered St. Ives Cheveau-Légers and shipment of equipment built on St. Ives, Indicass, and Warlock, the Second Lancers have completed rebuilding from the losses suffered in Clan space and against the Confederation, even adding a much needed third regiment to its armored command.[15]

Jihad[edit]

In 3069, the Second fought the Twelfth Vegan Rangers on Jaipur.[citation needed]

The Second St. Ives Lancers participated in Operation THUNDERSTRIKE, the Capellan Confederation's response to the Capellan March invasion of their land. They landed on New Syrtis and fought the Vanguard Legion and the Third Ceti Hussars. They were on St. Ives when the Word of Blake struck, and sustained heavy losses. The Blakist strike destroyed nearly eighty percent of the regiment.[16]

In 3085, they were stationed on St. Ives.[17] As they rebuilt in the wake of the Jihad, the unit began to accumulate an unusually high number of quads such as the Goliath, gaining the regiment a new nickname: "Cochraine's Revenge.[1]

Republic Era[edit]

In the Victoria War the Second St. Ives Lancers seized the Gurnet system, then faced the Eighth Avalon Hussars on Spica. Joining with the Third McCarron's Armored Cavalry they pinned the AFFS unit in place and were almost successful in taking the world, but the arrival of the Fourth Crucis Lancers and Seventeenth Avalon Hussars forced the two Capellan units to withdraw.[18]

Dark Age[edit]

Assigned to take the Capellan March world of Atlas during the initial waves of Operation CELESTIAL REWARD, with the Second St. Ives Lancers featuring more assault 'Mechs than any other CCAF regiment, the Second Lancers easily outmassed the defending Second Syrtis Fusiliers LCT. Briefly engaged by the Fusiliers' lighter but far more maneuverable 'Mech forces, the Davion unit held the Lancers in place long enough for Second Fusiliers' company of Arrow IV-equipped Yellow Jacket VTOLs and Paladin artillery vehicles to inflict heavy damage and casualties on the Second Lancers, buying time to withdraw off-world. Remaining as the garrison of Atlas, with all the unit's casualties inflicted by the Davion artillery, the Second's CO actively looked towards better ways of combating it in future, requesting both additional air support and an artillery company for counterbattery fire.[19][20]
