Davion Militia

 So today we'll be doing my Davion Militia, specifically Caselton Militia.  Caselton is a fairly minor world with important strategic value due to it's location in the Draconis March close to Tikonov.  It was briefly occupied by the Capellans in the First Succession War but other than that has been part of the Federated Suns.  That changed during the Jihad and Republic of the Sphere part of the timeline, but as I abhor that part of the BattleTech timeline we'll just forget those parts exist.  Anyway, getting back to the militia, it made for a good location to be able to interact with other worlds but still not be a major enough world to have a famous militia unit that would be covered in depth in the source books.

Since it's a militia unit, I only bothered to name the higher officers but I would like to add some more to this unit at some point I think, most likely splitting up the 38th Defense Battalion into a mech battalion and an armored battalion.  The Urban mech lance has actually seen tabletop combat in an all Urbanmech slugfest found here and some of the tanks in a follow up battle here.  This unit oddly enough has seen more combat than my Donegal Guards and Ghost Bears and almost as much as my Eridani Light Horse.

So that's my militia for now.  Next time I'll jump across to the Lyran Commonwealth and cover my 8th Donegal Guard.  Hope to see you all next time and thanks for stopping by.

    1. Yes, it was definitely something outside the normal.
