===Re-formation===
+
===Rebirth===
Numerous resistance groups were formed with [[Maskirovka]] assistance following the loss of central authority brought about by [[Gray Monday]]. Located around the former [[Tikonov Commonality]] region, these pro-Liao warbands fighting against the [[Republic of the Sphere]] were too far away from the frontlines to receive much assistance from [[House Liao]] and many were destroyed. Those who were still alive by the time the [[Capellan Confederation Armed Forces]] advance reached them were re-equipped from Capellan supply depots and amalgamated into the 2nd Tikonov Guards.<ref name=FM:3145p38/>
