Hoi,
ich bin gerade dabei, eine Story für BT zu verfassen, die sich näher mit der Söldnereinheit Arcadians befasst. Das Ganze spielt während des Capella-St. Ives-Konflikts auf Nashuar.
Nun hab ich das Problem, dass ich keinerlei Infos über die Einheit hab, außer dem Namen der (wahrscheinlichen) Kommandantin der Einheit und das sie VerCom-Patrioten sind.
Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen? Und bitte, keine Kommentare wie: "Das findest du dort und dort" etc. Sowas hilft mir NICHT weiter. Wenn ihr mir sagen könnt, wie ich online an diese Infos komme, dann ist gut, aber mir zu sagen, ich würde das im FM: Mercenaries Revised finden, ist nicht hilfreich, weil ich das selber weiß, aber immo weder die zeit noch das geld hab, um mir das büchlein zu beschaffen.
Schon mal vielen Dank im Voraus!

Also im Merc steht wie folgt.
"THE ARCADIANS
Formed from a core of retired AFFS officers in 3042, the Arcadians have
worked exclusively for the Federated Suns and several major FedSuns defense
suppliers. As they never officially registered with the MRBC, many critics suspected
the Arcadians to be nothing more than a front for some other AFFS unit, operating
off the House rolls to avoid the usual channels. Several lucrative contracts
defending major military suppliers and light raiding for the FedCom in the years
before the Clan Invasion did nothing to dispel such rumors.
The last fifteen years have seen the Arcadians stationed primarily along the
Capellan border, seeing action during the Capellan “liberation” of St. Ives and some
border skirmishes during the FedCom Civil War. After the dust settled, the regiment
was posted to Acamar to defend the world against the occasional Capellan foray.
Thanks to their long-term ties to various military suppliers, the Arcadians easily maintained
their high technology levels and even received the opportunity to purchase several
heavy OmniMech designs at below-market prices.
During Duke Hasek’s Operation: Sovereign Justice, the Arcadians were
among the first mercenaries called upon to pin down Capellan forces in support
of the border-wide invasion, assigned to hit Ningpo in a diversionary raid. Faulty
intelligence, however, failed to warn the Arcadians of the presence of the Hell’s
Black Aces, and the Arcadian Air Wing suffered severe losses before the mercenaries
even reached the planet. Landing near their objective—an armor-sheeting factory owned by Earthwerks, Ltd—the Arcadians
had barely deployed before the arrival of the First Taurian Lancers. The Taurians tore into the “Davion mercenaries” with unabashed fury
that made up for their smaller numbers. Stunned by the sheer ferocity of the Lancers attack, the Arcadians attempted to flank the Taurians
and succeeded only in seeing much of their Third Battalion smashed by two low-level bombing runs by the Aces.
Having suffered over sixty percent losses in less than twenty-four hours, the Arcadians retreated under fire, losing the DropShip
Dark Star and her remaining fighters in the process, and eventually limped back to lick their wounds on Acamar by early July of 3068.
As the Arcadians continued to rebuild, Acamar entered into secret negotiations with the Word of Blake to join its burgeoning
Protectorate. When the formal announcement came in August of 3068, the mercenaries were offered a choice: either terminate their contract
with the Federated Suns and sign with the Protectorate, or pack up and leave immediately, unmolested. Convinced the planetary
government was being duped into such actions, Colonel Andrews sent word to both New Syrtis and New Avalon to confirm that Acamar
was indeed leaving the Suns—never realizing that the Word of Blake had already taken over the local HPG. When the deadline passed,
Protectorate forces recently assigned to the planet moved in and the Arcadians once again found themselves in a fighting withdrawal.
Unable to scrounge enough transport to take all of his equipment, Andrews was forced to abandon the vehicles and equipment from his
8843rd Armored Regiment, along with all of the Arcadian’s Third Battalion BattleMechs.
Demoralized, and with his command reduced to less than half of its operational strength, Colonel Andrews called in some favors
among his corporate contacts and moved the Arcadians to Ronel, where they have begun to rebuild once more. Soon after the transfer,
Andrews sent a liaison team to contact the remnants of the beleaguered Allied Mercenary Command, and he offered the Arcadians’ service
to the alliance. Though the AMC badge may mark the Arcadians as a target for the Word of Blake, the mercenaries relish the chance
to one day hammer back at the Word, with Andrews’ ultimate goal focused on liberation of Acamar.
Dragoons Rating: Not Registered
The Arcadians
Reduced to two battalions after the savage fighting on Ningpo and the forced retreat from Acamar, the Arcadians still field many
newer BattleMech designs thanks to Colonel Andrews’ corporate connections with several FedSuns military conglomerates. The command
company is now made up completely of Inner Sphere OmniMechs, the most deadly being two lances of Templars straight off the
assembly line.
The Arcadians still retain their AFFS-style of RCT combat, though the loss of so much artillery and air support has forced them to
adapt to close-range slugging matches. Andrews hopes that they can regain this lost support, however, and is resistant to alter his traditional
tactics beyond the needs of the moment.
1st Arcadian Air Wing
Decimated by the Hell’s Black Aces at Ningpo, the Air Wing is currently reduced to four Stukas, three Sparrowhawks and a lone
Transgressor. When in hostile action, the wing is usually assigned escort and protection duty for the Arcadian’s four remaining
DropShips. The previously fearless pilots are severely demoralized after their crushing defeat at the hands of the Capellan mercenary
flyers, and Major Kelli Winston is at her wits’ end with the lot of them."
Hoffe es hilft.
