''Fitzroy's Fusiliers'' was a small mercenary unit, company-sized. Led by a Captain Fitzroy, sometime prior to [[3152]] where contracted by the reborn [[Tamar Pact]], on the [[Hinterlands]]. They were sent to the planet [[Crimond]], where they were tasked to help put down a bombing campaign of local miners. The task was accomplished, but the Fusiliers payed a high price, losing half their force, including Captain Fitzroy.

The Pact, far from compensating them, voided their contract by combat losses, refusing to pay them. Penniless and deeply indebted with the Pact, they were forced to surrender two pilotless [[BattleMech]]s and a handful of tanks to settle the debt.

The surviving officer, Ta-heng Cai, knowing than his unit cannot survive, contacted [[Ronan Carlyle]], the commander of the reborn [[Gray Death Legion]], which had fought the same campaign, but emerged unscathed, begging him to accept the surviving Fusiliers into the Legion. Carlyle and the rest of the Legion's leaders agreed, making them to form the bones of the Legion's third company, naming Cai its captain, about March of 3152. The integration of the survivors into the Legion wasn't easy or fast, but happened without too many problems.<ref>''Decision at Pandora'' ch. 3</ref>
