In [[3025]] the unit was stationed on [[Nirasaki]].<ref name=HKDCp133/> In [[3026]] the Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars assaulted [[Quentin]] along with the [[Fifth Sword of Light]]. During this fighting, elements of the Thirty-sixth massacred civilians and refugees in the Westham Valley while [[Swann's Cavaliers]] were conducting a diversionary raid elsewhere. The Thirty-sixth Dieron's flanks were protected by elements of the Fifth Sword of Light; The Cavaliers assaulted the Sword units thinking they were responsible for the massacre.<ref>''Sorenson's Sabres (scenario pack)'', pp. 32-33</ref> ===Fourth Succession War=== ====Battle for Northwind==== On orders from the Coordinator, ''[[Tai-sho (rank)|Tai-sho]]'' Palmer Conti led his Fifth Sword of Light with the Thirty-sixth accompanying it in an invasion of the Davion world of [[Northwind]]. The invasion launched upon receiving [[House Liao|Liao]] [[Chancellor]] [[Maximilian Liao]]'s request for the Combine to launch an attack so as to distract Davion forces from his own military operation.<ref>''Warrior: Riposte'', pp. 273-274 - "[[Tsen Shang]] requests the Chancellor to have House Kurita attack Terran Corridor to disrupt House Davion's 4th Wave forces so implement their [[Operation Riposte]]".</ref> The units struck the planet in Early January of [[3029]].<ref>''Warrior: Riposte'', p. 283 - "[[Team Banzai]] 2nd command meets ".</ref> The Thirty-sixth lured the under-manned [[Fifth Deneb Light Cavalry]] out of their defensive positions so the Fifth Sword could slaughter the unit. The mercenary units ''Bradley's Bravos'' ([[Kell Hounds]]'s Third Battalion)<ref>''The Kell Hounds'', p. 46</ref> and newly arrived [[Team Banzai]] engaged in battle with the Thirty-sixth and the Fifth Sword in their bid to allow the survivors of Fifth Deneb to escape. The mercenaries succeeded in tying up both DCMS regiments until the elite [[Genyosha]] regiment arrived. The Genyosha pushed the mercenaries out of position and kept them from overrunning the Fifth Sword's headquarters. The campaign on Northwind ended in failure when the Thirty-sixth and Fifth Sword were forced to withdraw a few days later when multiple mercenary regiments arrived in form of the [[Northwind Highlanders]].<ref>''Warrior: Riposte'', pp. 291-292 - "[[FedSuns]] Minister of Intelligence [[Quintus Allard]] debriefs Prince [[Hanse Davion]] of the Battle of Northwind".</ref> ''Tai-Sho'' Palmer Conti ordered the Thirty-sixth to cover retreat of the Fifth Sword, leading to the loss of a battalion from the Thirty-sixth while conducting a fighting withdrawal from the Davion forces.<ref>''Warrior: Coupé'', p. 183 - "Theodore Kurita criticizes Palmer Conti's efforts on Northwind, resulting loss of a battalion from the 36th Dieron".</ref> ====Failed invasion of the Isle of Skye==== The Thirty-sixth was later deployed to [[Moore]] in the [[Dieron Military District]]. Whilst there the commanding officer of the Thirty-sixth, ''Tai-Sho'' Rajpuman, attended a meeting headed up by Prince [[Theodore Kurita]] on the 1st of August. At the meeting Theodore detailed his planned invasion of Isle of the Skye region of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].<ref>''Warrior: Coupé'', pp. 185-186 - "''Tai-So'' Rajpuma present at the meeting on Moore, where Theodore organizes assault into Skye region".</ref> The Thirty-sixth were among the units Theodore wanted to deploy from the Dieron district for his planned invasion. ===Clan Invasion=== In [[3050]] the Thirty-sixth was stationed on Saffel.<ref>''20 Year Update'', p. 40</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 36th Dieron Regulars''' |- | ''[[Tai-sho (rank)|Tai-sho]]''||[[Raizo Tanaka]]||[[3016]]<ref name="htpmw9">''Historical Turning Points: Mallory's World'', p. 9</ref> |- | ''Tai-sho''||[[Hadji Rajpuman]]||[[3025]]<ref name=HKDCp133/> |- | ''[[Tai-sa]]''||[[Manson Irajinan]]||[[3050]]<ref name=20YU40>''20 Year Update'', p. 40</ref> |- |} ==Tactics== As of 3025, the unit specialized in open field battles, utilizing [[BattleMech#Light|light]] [[BattleMech]] designs.<ref>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'' - "Dieron Regulars brigade profile"</ref><ref name="htpmw9"/> ==Composition History== === 2821 === '''Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars''' (Regiment/Green/Questionable)<ref name="FSWp137">''First Succession War'', p. 137, "Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery (DCMS)"</ref> :- At this point in time the Thirty-sixth were a medium-weight regiment operating at just below sixty percent strength and were stationed on [[Asta]]. === 2830 === '''36th Dieron Regulars''' (Regiment/Green/Questionable) <ref name=2ndSSp97>''Second Succession War'', p. 97 </ref> : Note: At this point in time the heavy-weight unit was stationed on [[Asta]] with an operational readiness of 84 percent. <ref name=2ndSSp97/> === 2864 === '''36th Dieron Regulars''' (Regiment/Green/Questionable) <ref name=2ndSSp97/> : Note: At this point in time the medium-weight unit was stationed on [[Imbros III]] with an operational readiness of 18 percent. <ref name=2ndSSp97/> ===3014=== '''Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars''' (Regiment) * First Battalion<ref name=KHp34>''The Kell Hounds'', p. 34</ref> ** Second Company: ''[[Tai-i]]'' [[Mike Eon]]<ref name=KHp34/> ***Command Lance<ref name=KHp34/> ***Support Vessels ****Unknown-class [[DropShip]] - [[Dragon Blossom]]<ref>''The Kell Hounds'', pp. 34-35</ref> ===3025=== *'''Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars''' ([[Regiment]]//Regular/Reliable) :*CO: ''[[General]]'' Hadji Raijpuman<ref name=HKDCp133>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 133 - Regiment listing in 3025</ref> : Note: The command contains 9 light companies.<ref name=HSDCp144>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p.144 </ref> At this point in time the unit was stationed on [[Nirasaki]]. <ref name=HKDCp133/> ===3040=== * '''Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars''' ([[Regiment]]/Regular/Questionable)<ref name = HWo3039p138/> :Note: At this point in time the command was stationed on [[Fomalhaut]].<ref name = HWo3039p138>''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 138</ref> ===3050=== * '''Thirty-sixth Dieron Regulars''' ([[Regiment]]/Green/Questionable)<ref name=20YU40/> :* CO: ''Tai-sa'' Mason Irajinan :- Note: The Regiment would be stationed on [[Saffel]] in the Al Na'ir Prefecture.
