What happened to the 4th Ghost Regiment
« on: 15 December 2019, 22:00:29 »
Hi, 

What happened to the 4th Ghost Regiment?

Wo39 had them taking massive damage but surviving.

They existed in 3050 per 20 Year Update.

They are not included in FM:DC

Sarna has them as Disbanded but no other information on when, why, how.

Thanks for any info you can give.

Against mechs, infantry have two options: Run screaming from Godzilla, or giggle under your breath as the arrogant fools blunder into your trap. - Weirdo

They were disbanded after the War of 3039, in 3040. The 20 Year Update was in error.

Thanks Adrian, 

Was this actually stated somewhere in source fiction?   If so what source for reference?

It had been an internal thing for years with no where to really state the information. The War of 3039 all but shows it, and it winds up as a footnote in Combat Manual: Kurita, which covers ground from the third Succession War to the Clan Invasion.
