The 4th Cavalry Division has been dormant for some time mainly due to RL issues. Since I have restarted the unit, 4CAV is undergoing a new name change to bring new members into our ranks as well as reinvigorate some of our current members.
The 4th Cavalry Division will now be known as the Kesai Strike Lancers [KSL]. The new website is now: http://kesailancers.enjin.com. The site will still show the old information until the new changes are made.
Kesai is currently a planet under House Davion. Here's a history of Kesai:
Planetary History[edit]
Kesai IV was settled after the discovery of several deposits of radioactive minerals. When the deposits proved to be smaller than expected, only few settlers remained. Thereafter the world was used as a prison planet until the Star League purchased the rights to use it as a depot for the SLDF from House Kurita.
The League quickly built a vast complex of warehouses, factories, maintenance facilities, and DropShip pads around the planet's sea and stationed troops there. During the Reunification War the site already served as assembly point for Operation UNION HOLD, the Star League invasion of the Outworlds Alliance. The 6th Royal Division, a part of II Corps, gathered here until they moved on to Niles in 2581.[5][42][43]
Although the SLDF stripped Kesai of most of its supplies prior to their departure to the Periphery, the remaining facilities and their inventory were still incredibly valuable for the Successor States. McKinnon's Company of the 2nd Battalion, 142nd Battle Regiment, 251st BattleMech Division was stationed here and refused to retreat. Instead they pledged their support for House Davion and defended the complex against a superior DCMS force in the First Battle of Kesai in December 2786.
Regardless of the outcome of the battle the world ultimately fell to House Kurita. Since then Kesai has been attacked countless times and most cities and forest burned down, resembling the surrounding wasteland. Nevertheless, the depot remained a major source of supplies for the DCMS and later the AFFSwho captured the world during the Third Succession War.
In 3065 the Draconis Combine finally reconquered the planet in the course of their reprisal attackes for the Draconis March invasion during the FedCom Civil War.
