History
Age of War
The original 4th Tikonov Guards was a unit that fought for the Capellan Confederation during the Age of War. They were apparently destroyed and the Strategios decided not to rebuild the unit.
Reformation
Numerous resistance groups were formed with Maskirovka assistance following the loss of central authority brought about by Gray Monday. Still being assembled by 3145, the Streltsy or "Shooters" were drawn from the planetary militias of the recently reformed Tikonov Commonality. The planetary militia units were reequipped from Capellan supply depots and became the Fourth Tikonov Guards.[1]
The unit was assigned as a reserve regiment of the Tikonov Commonality by 3145.[2]
Operation GREAT FLOOD
The Fourth Tikonov Guards did not fight in Operation GREAT FLOOD.[1]
Operation CELESTIAL VENGEANCE
Sometime in 3144[3], the Third Sian Dragoons and the First Tikonov Guards fought the First Federated Suns Armored Cavalry for control of Almach as part of Operation CELESTIAL VENGEANCE. The superior maneuverability and ambush tactics employed by the Federated Suns unit resulted in a victory against the Capellan force. The planet would later fall in a second invasion attempt later that year.[4]
Officers
In 3145 the commanding officer was Sang-shao Juanping Karina.[5]
Tactics
Unit Emblem
