Takiro, I guess you need names for the units with ?
Am I right?

Just wanted to throw this in -

“House Steiner maintains a large standing force of household ‘Mechs culled from both personal planetary forces and from companies promoted for valor from other regular regiments. The 6th and 15th are currently stationed on Hesperus II. The 3rd has traditionally served as the Palace Guard of the Royal Court at Tharkad.”

Granted that is from 3052 but relevant nonetheless. Anyway the Lyran Guard briefing is nearing completion.

We could look at the attack of Hesperus by the Wolf's Dragoons and see if we can find any info.

Looking at the LCAF regiments the 19th Lyran Guards are known as the Scarlet Guards from the time they served in place of the 2nd Royal Guards on Tharkad.

Got this from a discussion with Top over on the AsgardLCAF site.

Do you have canon references for these assertions. Some like the 4th Skye Rangers (Albion) I completely agree with.

Ok some more from the book:-

Donegal Guard - 4th Red Horde, 8th Mud Wrestlers, 13th Black Cats, 14th Dawn Chargers, 17th Cheshire Cats

Arcturan Guard - 8th The Hell or High Water Boys.

Most of these and the ones i posted above seem to be earned during the 1st war or early 2nd but i think that they fit.

Yeah that is the thing nicknames are from 2785 prior to the Succession Wars so they have to hold up before that time which is rough.

You have to be careful with nicknames- if I didn't include them in my original notes it is because they date from the SW era. It's possible that many units don't have nicknames in 2785.

I'd say that they would have nicknames cause that is just tradition but they probably aren't the ones we know in 3025 and after. Of course there are some exceptions.

I don't have the book yet but there is one problem with this scenario- the Atlas was introduced in 2755 for the SLDF. As far as I know it did not become available to the house armies until after the fall of the SL- so how does a mechwarrior in the 2nd Tamar Jaegers have access to an Atlas?  Until I get the book and can read the story the question I have is what other inaccuracies are in the story and if there are enough then the whole mention of the 2nd Tamar Jaegers becomes questionable.

That said I have no problem with including a Tamar Jaegers in TA- just we have to figure out why/how they were completely wiped out and the Skye Rangers and Donegal Guards survived to 3025.
