After the reunification of the Free Worlds League, the Fusiliers were in a rough state. The Ducal Guard were the only unit to continue on under their banner, with the rest reclassified as Federal troops and used as the nucleus of new units or to fill holes in the [[Oriente Hussars]]. Despite rumors of a rebuilding of the brigade, as of 3145 the brigade was made up of only the Guard. Either despite or because of this, the Ducal Guard opted for an almost impossible standard of readiness, training for even the rarest combat situations. As a reinforced regiment of elite skill, the Ducal Guard was perhaps the reconstituted FWLM's most potent military unit.<ref name=fm3145>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 103</ref>
