== History ==
 
While all the Marik Malitia effectively acted as cadre units for the [[Free Worlds League Military]], the Twelfth Marik Militia was the only one that officially served as a training unit. To this end, only the First [[Battalion]]'s command [[company]] and the COs of all other companies were veteran officers, the remaining troops all recent academy graduates who served two years in the Twelfth before transfer to another Marik Militia [[regiment]] or other more prestigious units. <ref name=FR2765p10/>

===Third Succession War===
 
At sometime during the early [[Third Succession War]], the 12th Marik Militia was rebuilt and involved in an assault on the world of [[Wyatt]].  There they engaged the [[6th Lyran Regulars]] in July [[2868]].  The two units would find themselves involved in a giant melee and both units were so damaged that they were both disbanded.<ref name=BSLR3>''BattleCorps Scenario: Lead Rainmakers'', p. 3: "Aftermath"</ref>
