==History==
=== Star League Era ===
The '''Twenty-seventh Marik Militia''' was the one of nine regiments of the Marik Militia to be reactivated or reconstituted after the [[Star League Council]] repealed the [[Council Edict of 2650]] in [[2752]].<ref name="FR:2765FWLMp10"/>

=== Third Succession War ===
In [[3018]] the Twenty-seventh Marik Militia were stationed on [[Holt]] when it was raided by the mercenary unit [[Snord's Irregulars]]. The Irregulars were conducting [[Operation Junk Yard Dog]], a campaign of deep raids against the Free Worlds League, with the intention of recovering items from the Irregulars' museum on [[Clinton]] that had been captured by League forces in late [[3017]]. Having recently raided the world of [[Nestor]], the Irregulars had jumped to Holt while the [[Free Worlds League Military]] attempted to enforce blockades on the Irregulars' most likely path back to the [[Lyran Commonwealth]]. The Irregulars had information indicating that items from their collection - including recordings collected by [[Rhonda Snord]] of the [[twentieth century]] musician Elvis Presley - were being held on Holt. Making planetfall in mid-April, the Irregulars launched an attack on a [[BattleMech]] repair depot located close to the Great Swamp in the Feathered Plains region, clashing with the Twenty-seventh's Rainbow Company and wiping it out.<ref name="CSI:OJYD"/>

Following the battle at the 'Mech repair facility the Irregulars launched an assault on the estate of the planetary governor, [[Jason Marik-Torrenson]], hoping to capture Marik-Torrenson - third cousin to [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik]] and use him as leverage to get through the blockade. Tangling again with the Twenty-seventh, the Irregulars successfully captured Marik-Torrenson, with [[Cranston Snord]] defeating Marik-Torrenson's ''[[Marauder]]'' in single combat.<ref name="CSI:OJYD">''Cranston Snord's Irregulars'', pp. 5, 39-47 (Scenarios "Junk Yard Dog Affair" I-IV)</ref>
