Under the command of [[Colonel]] [[Adam Buquoy]] the [[Magistracy Armed Forces]] began an elaborate shell game, rapidly moving units from world to world to confuse the [[SLDF]] attackers and allow the MAF to conduct a highly mobile war against the invading troops. The Third Fusiliers would soon be involved in combat actions against the SLDF.<ref name="H:RWp150"/> ====Ayn Tarma==== The world of [[Ayn Tarma]] was one of a number of worlds acting as SLDF staging posts and supply caches for the task force invading the Magistracy. As a world in the rear area, Ayn Tarma was assumed to be safe from threats when the invasion of the Magistracy began; the Third Fusiliers would disprove this theory in early [[2578]].

The raids also bought the MAF six months to rebuild and rearm.<ref name="H:RWp99"/> ====Fanardir==== The Third Fusiliers were redeployed to [[Hastur]] in [[2579]] following their raid on Ayn Tarma, and by [[2581]] the Third Fusiliers had been redeployed to [[Fanardir]] along with one of their sister regiments, the [[2nd Canopian Fusiliers|Second Canopian Fusiliers]]. The SLDF launched their attack on Fanardir in March [[2581]] and while the planetary invasion force was smaller than those used during [[2578]] and [[2579]], it still consisted of a complete [[SLDF]] [[brigade]] - the [[60th Brigade|Sixtieth]] - supported by the [[403rd Independent Regiment|403^rd Independent Regiment]], the [[3rd Orloff Grenadiers|Third Orloff Grenadiers]] and the [[1st Defenders of Andurien|First Defenders of Andurien]]. The two Fusilier regiments followed the pattern used by the defending MAF units on [[Aspropirgos]] and [[Gallis]] in [[2580]]; they stung the invading forces enough to contest the invasion and then retreated before the SLDF could mount an effective pursuit, preserving their strength as part of a general refit and rearmament campaign both sides were conducting.<ref name="H:RWp150"/><ref name="H:RWp101">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 101: "Gallis, Aspropirgos, Fanardir and Borgan's Rift (January 2580-October 2581)"</ref><ref name="H:RWp148">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 148: "Magistracy of Canopus Front (Jump-Off - 2582)"</ref> ====Payvand==== The Third Fusiliers returned to Payvand in [[2582]]; Payvand was one of several worlds that the SLDF task force had easily occupied in [[2579]], worlds that had originally defected to the Magistracy of Canopus before the Reunification War and which had petitioned to rejoin the Free Worlds League after their occupation. The MAF was fighting to regain momentum against the SLDF task force, and had launched more raids akin to those conducted against worlds like Ayn Tarma earlier in the war. Despite the relative ease with which Payvand had been ceded to the Free Worlds League, guerrilla activity was a continual problem on the world, which may have been a factored into the decision to dispatch the Third Fusiliers to raid the world in 2582; the raid was a success, and local guerrilla activity would rumble on until the later part of the decade, forcing the SLDF to continue to expend resources reinforcing garrisons and supply depots.<ref name="H:RWp150"/><ref name="H:RWp100">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 100: "Ruschegg, Payvand and Scheuerheck (July December 2578)"</ref> ====Canopus==== The Third Fusiliers were one of six MAF [[BattleMech]] regiments that fought to defend [[Canopus IV]] when the SLDF invaded the Canopian capital world in [[2584]]. The battle for Canopus IV lasted four weeks, with the Canopian units resisting fiercely and both taking and inflicting heavy losses, despite being outnumbered more than three to one. By early May, all of the defending units had been destroyed or captured, and the [[Magestrix]] had surrendered - although she had refused to order the surrender of the Magistracy worlds still unconquered.<ref name="H:RWp103">''Historical: Reunification war'', pp. 103–105: "Canopus (March-April 2584)</ref> ===Disbandment=== All of the prewar MAF units were either destroyed during the conflict or were forced to disband by [[2588]], and the Third Canopus Fusiliers would remain an inactive unit until the covert military buildup within the [[Periphery]] in the closing stages of the Star League era. In 2765 they were based on [[Tarol IV]] and engaged in live-fire exercises.<ref>''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 15</ref> ===Amaris Civil War=== The Third Fusiliers were rebuilt in secret by the Magistracy, and in [[2765]] the Third Fusiliers participated in the MAF action that destroyed the [[SLDF]]'s [[219th BattleMech Division|219^th BattleMech Division]], fighting alongside the Second Canopian Fusiliers - for the first time since the battle on Fanardir two centuries before - and two other Canopian regiments in what would prove to be one of the bloodiest battles of the year. Notably, whereas the Second Fusiliers take great pride in their actions against the 219^th during the uprising, the Third Fusiliers do not attach the same importance or indulge in the same amount of reveling over the fate of the 219^th.<ref name=FMP38/> ===Succession Wars=== For most of the Succession War era the Third Fusiliers were stationed on the world of [[Marantha]], acting as a bulwark against pirate raids; the Third Fusiliers conducted dozens of strikes during this era, including several punitive raids against forces from the [[Taurian Concordat]].<ref name=FMP38/> ===Andurien/Canopus Invasion=== The green Third was assigned to take [[Gunthar]], one of the key targets of the [[Magistracy of Canopus]]' invasion of the [[Capellan Confederation]], held by the [[15th Dracon|Fifteenth Dracon]] [[mercenary unit]]. While landing unopposed in early November [[3030]], Major [[Wilhelm Archal]] committed a terrible error in attempting to bribe the Dracons into leaving the world, having mistakenly assumed that the Dracons were of the mold of the rundown mercenary units that he was used to in the Periphery. Archal was completely unprepared for the loyalty the Dracons held to the people of Gunthar, and the Capellan Confederation as a whole, when the outraged "Sir Samuel" launched a surprise assault on the [[MAF]] defensive positions while the bulk of the Fusiliers slept.<ref name=BW2>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 56: "Gunthar (November-Ongoing)"</ref> Suffering only light losses, the Fifteenth Dracon destroyed over a company of shut-down Fusiliers 'Mechs and massive quantities of ammunition and supplies until they were forced to withdraw in the face of the massed guns of the Canopian [[DropShip]]s. Recognizing his position was very tenuous, Major Archal kept the bulk of his surviving troops near his DropShips, resulting in a stalemate as both units unsuccessfully attempted draw out and wear the other side down.<ref name=BW2/> The stalemate continued for two years, as the dug-in Third refused to take the initiative, waiting in vain of reinforcements, with the Dracons even selectively weakening their own defenses in an unsuccessfully attempt to convince the Fusiliers to strike.<ref name=BW3>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 62: "Gunthar (Ongoing)"</ref> After hearing word of the Capellan recapture of [[Drozan]] and [[Betelgeuse]], both the Third and Dracons were shaken out of their slow defensive actions and launched increasingly furious attacks against each other. Though weakened and facing poor odds, the Fusiliers struck at the Liao positions in an attempt to break the stalemate; but, by late June, as the [[CCAF]] turned the tide of the war, the MAF recalled the unit. The Dracons refused to allow them to escape so easily however, launching a surprise assault and capturing two of the Fusilier DropShips, forcing the desperate Canopians to pack and cram as many troops and hardware as possible into the transports they had left, withdrawing from the system on July 9.<ref name=BW4>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 64: "Gunthar (Ongoing-July)"</ref> ===Pirate War=== Pirate raids against the Magistracy spiked in mid-3057 in what became known as the Pirates War, and the Third Fusiliers distinguished themselves when they used their considerable experience in dealing with pirate activity to aid the [[Canopian Highlanders]] in defending the Magistracy's borders. The actions performed by the Third Fusiliers earned them the reputation of being the finest regiment in the MAF.<ref name=FMP38/> ===Capellan Civil War=== As a result of their reputation the Third Fusiliers were chosen for deployment in the [[Capellan Confederation]] as a part of the [[Trinity Alliance]]. During the Capellan Civil War, the Third fought the [[2nd St. Ives Lancers|Second St. Ives Lancers]] on [[Milos]] in March [[3061]]. Immediately after the conflict on Milos the Third was thrown into the fray on [[Nashuar]], fighting alongside the [[1st McCarron's Armored Cavalry|Nightriders]] regiment of [[McCarron's Armored Cavalry]]. They took serious losses in this conflict, but were able to bring the world to heel.<ref name=FMP38/> The [[3062|next year]] saw the Fusiliers fighting on [[St. Ives]] itself, bringing that world back into the [[Capellan Confederation]]. They then spent the rest of the war rebuilding their unit. This rebuilding effort served to tie the Fusiliers more closely to the Confederation; nearly all of the third battalion was composed of Capellan troops.<ref name=FMP38/> In [[3065]], the Third was redeployed to [[Denbar]] from Magistracy space after years of recuperating from the [[Capellan Civil War]]. [[Magestrix]] [[Emma Centrella]] has allowed the unit to confer with her daughter [[Naomi Centrella]] commands. The deployment marks first time the unit's dependents were allowed to go along with the service members.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 191: "Canopian Fusiliers profile, 3rd activities"</ref> ===Jihad=== The Third was forced off [[Denbar]] during the early fighting of the [[Jihad]] and then relocated to Sian.<ref name=fm85p139>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 139</ref> The Third Canopian Fusiliers were not heavily damaged by the Blakist forces in either of the major battles. In the first strike (in [[3070]]) they fought the [[17th Division (Word of Blake)|Seventeenth Division]] and [[Dragon's Breath (Mercenary Command)|Dragon's Breath]] mercenary command.<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Sian'', p. 8</ref> They were the first forces to reach their defensive positions in the second Blakist attack<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Sian'', p. 7</ref>; [[3074]] saw them fight the [[8th Division (Word of Blake)|Eighth Division]], [[24th Division (Word of Blake)|Twenty-fourth Division]], [[Warrior House White Tiger]], and [[Warrior House Rakshasa]].<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Sian'', pp. 10, 12</ref> They then relocated back into the Magistracy of Canopus, where they fought the Blakist forces for several months. The Third was ordered to find the [[41st Shadow Division|Forty-first Shadow Division]], which was wreaking havoc in the interior of the Magistracy. The Third Fusiliers were split into battalion sized formations and sent to garrison [[Krimari]], [[Candiear]], and [[Joyz]].<ref name=frp10>''Field Report: Periphery'', p. 10</ref> They never faced the Word of Blake unit, but the defensive preparations they left behind have been maintained by the new garrison unit.<ref name=fm85p139/> In [[3085]] the Third had been stationed on [[Brixtana]], [[Trip]], and [[Early Dawn]].<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 149</ref> ===Dark Age=== The Third remained as the garrison along the rimward side of the Magistracy. Their combat skills declined sharply, and by 3145 the unit had almost no officers with any real experience. The Magistracy Command planned to fix this by sending troops to the Duchy of Andurien, but these deployments weren't scheduled to begin until 3149.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 193</ref> In 3145 they were stationed on [[Techne's Revenge]] and [[Krimari]].<ref name=FM:3145p200/> When the [[Marian Hegemony]] seized [[Gambilon]] and [[Marantha]] in April [[3150]], the Third participated in the Canopian [[Battle of Marantha (3150)|counterstrike]] that drove the Marians from both worlds a month later.<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 88</ref> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 3rd Canopian Fusiliers''' |- | [[Major]]||[[Wilhelm Archal]]||[[3025]] - [[3030]]<ref name=TPp99>''The Periphery First (1988)'', p. 99: "MAF Deployment Table - 3025"</ref><ref name=BW2/> |- | Major||[[William Sangrey]]||[[3050]] - [[3054]]<ref name=20Yp78>''20 Year Update'', p. 78: "MAF Deployment Table - 3050"</ref><ref name=ORp47>''Objective Raids'', p. 47: "MAF Deployment Table - 3054"</ref> |- | [[Colonel]]||William Sangrey||[[3064]] - [[3085]]<ref name=FMP38>''Field Manual: Periphery'', p. 38: "3rd Canopian Fusiliers Unit Profile"</ref><ref name=FMU201>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 201: "MAF Deployment Table - 3067"</ref><ref name=FM3085p149>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 149: "MAF Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> |- | Colonel||[[Elida Salgado]]||[[3145]]<ref name=FM:3145p200>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 200: "Canopian Fusiliers"</ref> |- |} ==Tactics== Considered the elite of the elite within the MAF, the Third Fusiliers can exploit every weakness an opponent possesses, manipulating almost any situation to their advantage.<ref name=FMP38/> ==Composition History== ===2765=== '''Third Canopian Fusiliers''' (Regiment/Regular/Questionable)<ref name=FR:2765Pp15>''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 15: "Canopian Fusiliers - Regimental Status"</ref> :- At this point in time the Third Fusiliers was stationed on [[Tarol IV]].<ref name=FR:2765Pp15/> === 2786 - 2821=== '''3rd Canopian Fusiliers ''' (Regiment/Green/Questionable)<ref name=1SWp140>''First Succession War'', p. 140</ref> : Note: At this point in time the light-weight unit was stationed on [[Tarol IV]].
