History

Scoleri's Sabres were a minor mercenary unit. Led by Captain Marvin Scoreli, it was one of dozens contracted by the Federated Suns into the dawn of the IlClan Era. During Operation DAWN, the reconquest of New Avalon, and later Operation Solar Flare, the reconquest of Dragon's Tongue, all available units had been contracted by the Suns to assist. The Sabres were one of those. However, their contract was one special: most of the units weren't payed in money, but in land grants of the freed worlds. Contracting the rest was problematic, as the MRBC was corrupt, slow an ineficient. But a new MRBC had risen, a totally unexpected one: the Clan Sea Fox. SaKhan Ya'el Labov of Fox Khanate had decided to replace the MRBC, and quickly ahd found clients between mercenaries and employers.[1]

Marvin Scoreli signed a contract with the Suns. Scoreli convinced Marshal Philip Rahm of the 8th Crucis Lancers to send the Sabres, along with another bigger mercenary unit, the Acadian Rifles, to launch a raid into the Tongue. Their target was the world of Sullivan, defended by the Draconis Combine Eleventh Ghost. But Marvin's intentions were far from honest ones: as many others mercenary officers, he believed the Foxes naive and tried to take advantage of them. So, previously to landing on Sullivan, he had taken his advance in gold bullion and salvage rights, contacted the Ghosts and made a deal with them. So when the Sabres and Rifles landed, the last ones fell into an ambush than destroyed them. The Sabres and the Eleventh split their salvage from the battle, and the Sabres laughed over their ill-gotten wealth.[2]

However, Scoreli had clearly underestimated the Foxes, and three warriors of the Acadians managed to escape, and inform Rahm and the Foxes about the betrayal. But while the marshal wrote off the event as the peril of doing business, the Foxes did not: they voided the Sabres' contract and reimbursed the Federated Suns of the payed money. By January 3152, the Sabres had retreated to Bremond and taken a MRBC contract, suporting the Combine's garrison, the Forty-Fifth New Samarkand Regulars. A Fox Khanate ship was nearby7, and after locatinf the sabres, they attacked after the Regulars had departed from the system. The clanners dropped an assault Trinary directly onto the Sabres' barracks. They slaughtered all personnel and seized their equipment as isorla. When the DCMS commander protested for the hostile act, the Foxes simply informed him about the Sabres' betrayal before departing. The Sabres' annihilation send a clear message to all Foxces clients, both mercenary and clients, than staying off the straight path will be punished with deadly force. However, some mercenaries considered the Sabres as martyrs and remained more loyal to ever to the MRBC.[3]
