Formed in the wake of the [[ComStar Schism]] from members of the [[Com Guards]], the Word of Blake Militia was instrumental first in the capture of [[Terra]] from ComStar and then in the prosecution of the [[Jihad]].

In [[3053]] a full-scale insurgency erupted between members of the [[Gibson Freedom League]] and the newly formed Word of Blake Militia. The conflict would last until early [[3055]] when it came to shocking end during a confusing large-scale battle involving the Militia, the Freedom League, the [[Knights of the Inner Sphere]] and units from the [[Principality of Regulus]], with the detonation of a tactical [[nuclear weapon]] by the insurgents. The nuclear incident would serve to accelerate plans by the Word of Blake to conquer Terra.<ref name=FMC45>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 45</ref> + As the nascent Word of Blake took shape Marik agreed to grant the organization [[Gibson]] as their new homeworld, however the people of Gibson did not take kindly to this change in ownership.

Using materials supplied by the Free Worlds League and [[Capellan Confederation]], the Word of Blake turned these factories over to creating new weapons at an alarming rate, while the [[Titan Shipyards]] was used to renovate [[WarShip]]s and produce [[DropShip]]s at a scale heretofore unprecedented. To the rest of the Inner Sphere it was not entirely clear what the Word of Blake was doing with this buildup of war matériel, as it appeared they were not expanding their forces beyond the initial ten divisions.<ref name=FMU88-90>''Field Manual: Updates'', pp. 88–90</ref>+ {{Sectionstub}} − − Publicly, the majority of the Militia was stationed on Terra which, in combination with the remnants of its [[SDS]] network, made the world nigh impenetrable against any ComStar reconquest attempt. Of the rest three of their divisions were stationed throughout the [[Chaos March]] as part of a diplomatic push by the Order to gain hegemony over the region. While the rest of the Inner Sphere was preoccupied with the [[FedCom Civil War]] the Blakists managed to broker a network of nonaggression, trade and mutual defense pacts with many worlds of the March, supplanting ComStar and taking control of their [[HPG]] stations. Ostensibly it was for the protection of these HPG stations that the Blakist Militia was deployed, though they did on occasion interpret their orders liberally to include the entire planet and several times performed preemptive anti-bandit sweeps through uninhabited systems.<ref name=FMU88-90/> − − Against this [[Wolf's Dragoons]] created a coalition of mercenary units, including the [[Northwind Highlanders]], to combat the spread of Blakist influence in the Chaos March; thus [[Outreach]] and [[Northwind]] were among the several planets which refused offers of Blakist suzerainty, and a number of battles were fought between them and the Militia. In spite of this and memories of what had happened to the [[21st Centauri Lancers]], many other mercenary commands did join the Militia in protecting their interests in the region, presumably due to a drop in demand elsewhere.<ref name=FMU88-90/> ===Jihad=== ===Jihad=== Line 23:
Line 19: ==Structure and Command== ==Structure and Command== − The Word of Blake Militia maintains much the same base-six military command structure as the Com Guards, with a [[Level I]] unit consisting of a single [[BattleMech]], [[combat vehicle]], [[aerospace fighter]] or infantry unit of four (later six) [[battle armor]] or 36 conventional [[infantry]].<ref name=TM147>''TechManual'', p. 147</ref> One notable difference is the Blake-specific [[ComStar military structure#Choir|''Choir'']] formation. Similar to a Clan [[Nova (Formation)|Nova]], this combines two [[Level II]]s – one BattleMech Level II and one Battle Armor Level II – into a single combat unit.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3075'' p. 24 "Se'irim Medium Battle Armor".</ref> + The Word of Blake Militia maintains the same base-six military command structure as the Com Guards, with a [[Level I]] unit consisting of a single [[BattleMech]], [[Combat Vehicle]], [[Aerospace Fighter]] or infantry unit of four (later six) [[Battle Armor]] or 28 conventional [[infantry]]. ===Ruling Conclave=== ===Ruling Conclave=== Line 29:

They likewise maintain similar branch designations and recording of seniority, with promotion to the next rank after twenty-five years of service. One notable point of difference between the two militaries is usage of the [[Demi-Precentor]] rank: the Word of Blake maintained it as the informal rank it was considered to be prior to the Reformation and all Blakist Demi-Precentors are technically either senior Adepts (multiple Level IIs) or junior Precentors (Level IIIs).<ref name=FMC10>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 10: "The Com Guard and Word of Blake Militia - ComStar Ranks"</ref> + As with many aspects of the Word of Blake Militia, the Word utilise the same ranking system as the Com Guards, with [[Acolyte]]s equivalent to enlisted ranks, [[Adept]]s equivalent to junior officers such as [[Captain]]s and [[Lieutenant]]s, and [[Precentor]]s the senior officers equivalent to [[Colonel]] or [[Lieutenant General]].

Branches were distinguished by the robes' color pattern: MechWarriors wear dark blue robes with red trim, aerospace pilots red with white trim, vehicle crews brown with yellow trim, infantry green with brown trim, and naval personnel black with red trim.

Armor crews and infantry shared the same field uniform, full-length coveralls with an armored vest, armored helmet, leather boots and gloves, along with a hood and half-cape. The uniform's color changed among various camouflage patterns while the helmet contained advanced communication and targeting equipment. Theirs was also the only uniform for which a sidearm was officially included, although it was also common practice among the other branches to wear one. Finally naval personnel utilized two different field uniforms: during combat or the possibility of hull breach they wore a black pressure suit and lightweight red helmet, an advanced Star League model with extended oxygen supply and maneuvering unit, otherwise they wore black multipocket coveralls and open-front red jacket.<ref name=FMC50/> − − <gallery> − Uniformwob2.png|Infantry Field Uniform (c.

Among those who left was Precentor [[Demona Aziz]], fleeing to the [[Free Worlds League]] where [[Captain-General]] [[Thomas Marik]], a former member of ComStar and philosophical ally, agreed to grant the refugees sanctuary.<ref name=FMC45>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 45</ref> |

In [[3053]] a full-scale insurgency erupted between members of the Gibson Freedom League and the newly-formed Word of Blake Militia. The conflict would last until early [[3055]] when it came to shocking end during a confusing large-scale battle involving the Militia, the Freedom League, the [[Knights of the Inner Sphere]] and units from the [[Principality of Regulus]], with the detonation of a tactical [[nuclear weapon]] by the insurgents. The nuclear incident would serve to accelerate plans by the Word of Blake to conquer Terra.<ref name=FMC45>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 45</ref> |

One notable point of difference between both militaries is usage of the [[Demi-Precentor]] rank, the Word of Blake maintained it as the informal rank it was considered to be prior to the Reformation and all Blakist Demi-Precentors are technically either senior Adepts (multiple Level IIs) or junior Precentors (Level IIIs). <ref name=FMC10>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 10 "The Com Guard and Word of Blake Milita - ComStar Ranks"</ref> |

Falling into ComStar hands after [[Operation Silver Shield]], Sandhurst ultimately became the primary headquarters and training facility for the Com Guards before becoming the Blakist's primary academy in the wake of Operation Odysseus. Aside from reinstating the indoctrination courses that the Secular ComStar discontinued, the Blakists ran Sandhurst almost identically.<ref name=FMC48>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 48 "Word of Blake - Academies and Training"</ref> |

Though still retaining a number of 'Mech designs dating back to the [[Star League Defense Force]], the Militia made use of a sizable number from the Free Worlds League, and used factories in the League and on Terra to produce their own designs. This was especially true among armor units, which utilized relatively few Star League designs in place of more modern League vehicles. In contrast aerospace forces took relatively few losses over the course of events, leading to a majority still being ex-SLDF fighters. [[Infantry]] were mostly mechanized, mounted in armored personnel carriers or infantry fighting vehicles, though some were mere "foot" soldiers or equipped with [[jump pack]]s, while elite commando units used light power armor like the ''[[Tornado]]''. During this time the Militia also began expanding its use of [[Battle Armor]], including small quantities of Free World League designs such as the ''[[Longinus]]'' and ''[[Achileus ]]'', along with developing their own design known as the ''[[Purifier Adaptive]]''.<ref name=FMC8>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 8</ref><ref name=FMC9>''Field Manual: ComStar'', p. 9</ref> |
