Regiments wiped out in Revival
« on: 04 April 2017, 01:34:00 »
I think I saw a list at some point . . . but did anyone ever have a complete list of FedCom, FreeRas, Drac and Merc (with who they worked for) regiments that were wiped out by the Clans?  I figure that mech regiments will be the most comprehensive list, but I know the JF/WC/IC SBs also had comments about armor and infantry.

Really trying to get a rough count of how many mech units they took down.

I believe there's an <insert plant name> 3rd Armored Regiment? Brigade? on that list. We've never heard about the first two.

The original TRO 3050 had the list if some one has it handy.  Unfortunately I'm at work so I can't reference it.

Hmm, even that list is not complete since IIRC the Blackjack training battalion also got rolled over.

SCC, lol that is always my example from the WCSB- the 3rd Icar Armored Brigade.  In my mind they had 2 armored regiments and a mechanized rifle foot regiment- mostly Vedettes, Scorpions, Condors, S-tanks and other low end stuff but with a few small formations of heavies & assaults.  Now that Support Vehs has come out I might revisit to see what support veh equipment could replace combat veh rules equipment.  Since 25 mechs and 100 Elementals managed to fight their way through a mech regiment and what was on hand of the armored brigade (with the other 2 unable to move to support?) to force their surrender it says something of the brutality and speed used.  The small write up practically screams the defenders never recovered to set themselves after the first contact.

Maybe because they didn't exist anymore. It's possible first two were called up for frontline duty during Successor Wars, destroyed and never rebuilt.

Sarna's Invasion corridor pages can be helpful.  It lists what forces were actively engaged at each planet; often the IS forces will have been wiped out.  You can link to the planet and get more detail in the "clan invasion" section.  Here is the link for Clan Wolf.  http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Invasion_corridor_-_Clan_Wolf#cite_note-WCS37-15

The list from original TRO3050 was only listing units that were destroyed in the 1st couple/few waves.
Maybe up to the Outreach conference when the clans pulled back for a year.
It wasn't everything for all of Revival, but a "what we have lost so far" list.

Looking Through Sarna this is what I was able to find.  Unfortunately they don't have complete listings for the FRR regiments or mercenaries so I wasn't able to add any of those units to the list.  I quickly put this together so their may be a mistake or two.

Federated Commonwealth
Blackjack Training Battalion
Laurent TMM
1st Lyran Guards RCT
Tamar War College Training Battalion
33rd Avalon Hussars
19th Lyran Guards RCT

Draconis Combine
1st Sun Zhang Academy Cadre
12th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre
6th Alshain Regulars
41st Dieron Regulars
21st Benjamin Regulars
5th Amphigean Light Assault Group
18th Dieron Regulars
9th Dieron Regulars
11th Phest Regulars

This is my conclusion for the FRR based on Sarna.  http://www.sarna.net/wiki/KungsArm%C3%A9
In addition to those listed as destroyed, some were destroyed, but later remade.  I think this list is definitive as to FRR mech regiments.

    1st Drakøns - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
    2nd Drakøns - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
    3rd Drakøns - "the tough and unforgiving battle ending with the destruction of the last Drakøn 'Mech two weeks later."
         http://www.sarna.net/wiki/3rd_Drak%C3%B8ns#cite_note-WC-4
    4th Drakøns - "With the Fourth's defensive positions compromised, the Drakøns were effectively obliterated in a holocaust far too similar to the destruction of Rasalhague."
          http://www.sarna.net/wiki/4th_Drak%C3%B8ns


    1st Freemen - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
    3rd Freemen - Destroyed during Clan Invasion

    1st Hussars - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
    2nd Hussars - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
   
    1st Kavalleri - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
    3rd Kavalleri - Destroyed during Clan Invasion
   
    Gunzburg Eagles - Surrendered and disbanded

That leaves four regiments at least partially intact

2nd Freemen - actually fought effectively http://www.sarna.net/wiki/2nd_Freemen_(Clan_Ghost_Bear)
2nd Kavalleri - "Only five companies of the Kavelleri were able to escape from the planet and fall back to the world of Ueda."  http://www.sarna.net/wiki/2nd_Kavalleri
4th Kavalleri - did not see action
3rd Hussars - did not see action
