==History==
 
==History==
On the 18 of November [[3078]] elements from [[Stone's Liberators]], the [[Seventh Donegal Guards]], the [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Nova Cat)|Nova Cat Alpha Galaxy]], the [[11th Mechanized Cavalry (Clan Hell's Horses)|Eleventh Mechanized Cavalry from Clan Hell's Horses]] and the [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|Clan Wolf-in-Exile Alpha Galaxy]] fought against the Mars Protectorate Militia in Koryo. The Coalition forces took heavy losses, but finally they were able to turn the tide. After dealing with the inner lock defenders, the Coalition took out the turret crews from within, and the silencing of those allowed the remaining forces to avoid taking point-blank fire they could not return. Calling up the rest of the Coalition force once the locks allowed them to proceed with clearing the Blakist taint from the city itself.

==Notes==
 
 
<div class="gamerules">
 
 
 
== Rules ==
 
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.<ref name="JS:BDp143">''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 103, "Rules Annex"</ref>
