==History==
 
==History==
The roots of the '''Raventhir Cuirassiers''' brigade lie in conventional regiments. At their foundation in 3056, both regiments consisted solely of infantry and were known as the '''Raventhir Footmen'''.<ref>''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 26</ref> [[Emma Centrella]] announced the creation of the new brigade to honor a line of military leaders who were loyal to the [[Magistracy of Canopus|Magistracy]]. The formation created some disturbance between the members of the [[Trinity Alliance]], because no one expected such action without information being provided to the others. The individual regiments are on their way to showing their loyalty through serious service.<ref>''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 27</ref>

The roots of the brigade lie in conventional regiments. Emma Centralla anounce the creation of the new brigade to honor a line of military leader which were loyal to the magistracy. The formation create some disturbance between the members of the Trinity Alliance, because no one have excepted such action with out informations to the other. The individual regiments are one the way to show their loyality through serious service. <ref>''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 27 </ref>
  
The name for the new unit comes from a noble line in Centrella family history. In [[2689]], [[Kim Centrella]] gave birth to triplets. The two boys took their father's surname, Raventhir, thus establishing the Raventhiri noble family line.<ref>''The Periphery'', p. 51</ref>

The commander of the briagde was  General Mavis Cooper in 3064. <ref>''Field Manual: Periphery'' p. 22 </ref>
  
During the [[Jihad]] the Raventhir Cuirassiers spent their time protecting the Magistracy from pirates and bandits, some of which were likely backed by the [[Word of Blake]]. These units were not equipped with the advanced technology needed to defeat the Blakists, so this decision made sense. By [[3085]] the two units had been broken up into battalion sized units and stationed on worlds on the Magistracy's border with the [[Fronc Reaches]]. There they had to deal with a great deal of pirate activity.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 140</ref>

The Cuirassiers were still stationed along the Magistracy's border with the Fronc Reaches in 3145. This posting saw both regiments frequently involved in dealing with pirate raids; As such it was popular for soldiers who wanted to gain combat experience.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 193</ref>
