{{Quote|''There is no company more fitting as heralds of the Davion sword and sunburst than the Crazy Eights, and even fewer regiments in the AFFS with as storied and lengthy history as the Eighth Company of the [[20th Avalon Hussars|Twentieth Avalon Hussars]]. Disbanded and lost during the [[Word of Blake]]’s [[Jihad]], the Crazy Eights were reformed when the call to war once again compelled the Federated Suns to raise new regiments for the protection of the realm. Now, as [[House Davion]]’s ancient enemy bears down on New Avalon in this new Dark Age, the Crazy Eights are one of the few to stand in the Dragon’s path. '''
