January 1st, 3062 → February 5th, 3062
At the start of 3062, the Fianna Regulars welcomed the new year with celebrations before undergoing their annual combat evaluations. Shortly after, Duke Lenderman arrived with his son, Hauptmann Edmond Lenderman, bringing promises of a better future for Fianna. However, pirate activity soon disrupted these plans. During a routine patrol, SGT Mort “Wolf” of Bravo Lance responded to a distress call and engaged a group of pirates single-handedly, routing them before reinforcements arrived. Captured enemies confirmed that an organized pirate force was operating on the planet, raising concerns among the Regulars.
As tensions escalated, Hauptmann Lenderman led Alpha Lance in a bold assault to reclaim a pirate-occupied factory. Despite taking heavy damage, the mission was a success, marking the first confirmed use of enemy mechs. Meanwhile, Charlie Lance, deployed on a routine patrol, intercepted a distress call from a militia unit under siege. By the time they arrived, only one militia mech remained. Charlie Lance secured a decisive victory, rescuing SGT Natalya Tarkovsky, who was later integrated into the Fianna Regulars. Recognizing the growing threat, SGT Mort “Wolf” pushed for a company-wide discussion on how best to combat the pirates.
The pirates struck back, forcing Bravo Lance into a battle to reclaim a captured airfield. While they secured the site with moderate damage, Charlie Lance was assigned to ambush a pirate supply route deep in the wilderness. However, the enemy force proved far stronger than expected. Reinforcements, including the pirate commander’s personal lance, overwhelmed Charlie Lance, leaving LT Solberg dead and SGTs Tarkovsky, Armil, and Gerhardt missing in action. Only SGT Marlin returned from the disastrous mission.
Determined to end the pirate threat, aerospace reconnaissance identified their dropship preparing for departure. The Fianna Regulars launched a full-scale assault, catching the pirates off guard. Despite stiff resistance and heavy damage, artillery strikes forced the enemy to surrender, securing both the dropship and the pirate commander’s Awesome battlemech. The captured personnel were rescued, bringing the campaign to a triumphant close. In recognition of their bravery, Duke Lenderman awarded the pilots medals and hosted them for a celebratory dinner. With the pirate menace eliminated, the Regulars took time to recover, reflecting on their trials and preparing for the battles ahead.
March 4th, 3062 → March 22nd, 3062
Upon receiving a distress signal through the HPG network, Hauptmann Lenderman quickly mobilized the Fianna Regulars and deployed them to the embattled world of Rahne. Landing at the planetary command base, the Fianna troops met with the remnants of Rahne’s military to assess the situation. Faced with a numerically superior House Marik invasion force, the defenders split into two teams, each tasked with striking key objectives to disrupt the enemy's control.
The campaign began with a series of rapid engagements designed to keep the Marik forces off balance. West Team launched a hard-fought push along the coastline, securing several key locations, including a scientific observation post, before establishing a defensive position to block enemy reinforcements from the western peninsula. Meanwhile, East Team captured two villages before engaging in a brutal battle for the Rahne satellite relay. Despite heavy casualties on both sides, the allied forces secured the relay, restoring satellite surveillance and gaining a crucial intelligence advantage.
With momentum on their side, the Fianna and Rahne forces planned a two-pronged offensive. East Team was tasked with assaulting Al-Sharim Pass and the hydroelectric plant to draw enemy reinforcements away from the true objective—West Team’s mission to bypass a nearby town and seize Rahne Port, a vital hub for supplies and parts. However, delays in East Team’s assault allowed Marik reinforcements, including an assault lance and a fire-support armor platoon, to fortify the port, setting the stage for a brutal confrontation.
The battle for Rahne Port was fiercely contested, with both sides suffering severe losses. As the situation grew desperate, East Team split its forces, sending reinforcements to aid the embattled West Team while still pressing the attack on the hydroelectric plant. Their relentless assault not only diverted enemy troops but also led to an unexpected rout of Marik forces at the dam, exceeding their original objective. With their armored and mech forces devastated, the Marik invaders were left with no choice but to retreat, evacuating to their dropships and ceding victory to the Fianna Regulars and Rahne’s remaining defenders.
