15TH MARIK MILITIA
FREE WORLDS LEAGUE
c. 3007

The 15th Marik Militia is a Battletech unit. I decided to paint it up for the connection to Snord’s Irregulars, another force I’m working on. The unit is a pretty typical Free Worlds League unit during the 4th Succession War when this conflict takes place. I’ve supplemented them with an armored company from the local planetary militia.

The Fire Lance is taken from the 1986 Cranston Snord's Irregulars and while not a technically legal Fire Lance for Alpha Strike I’m going to say it counts.

From 3052 the 15th was heavily involved with the Word of Blake so I’m considering expanding in that direction in the future.

For more on how this unit came together see my forthcoming articles on researching Battletech units.
