'''Creed Mattlov''' was the commanding officer of [[12th Falcon Regulars (Clan Jade Falcon)|12th Falcon Regulars Cluster]] from [[3058]]<ref name=BCspSP/> to [[3067]].<ref name=FMUp72>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 72: Deployment Tables as of 3067 - Unit shown with new worlds it is garrisoning and current ratings.</ref>

==History==
=== Jade Falcon Incursion of 3058 ===
He led the 12th Falcon Regulars [[Cluster]] on that operation.<ref name=BCp6>''The Battle of Coventry'', p. 6: Learning to Fly - The original sourcebook's description of events leading to the Falcons' expedition to Coventry.</ref><ref name=otpfi8>''Operational Turning Points: Falcon Incursion'', p. 8: newer scenario pack indirectly calls the event the Falcon Incursion</ref>

His most noted action was in April, when the [[Delta Regiment (Wolf's Dragoons)|Delta Regiment]] of [[Wolf's Dragoons]] commanding officer, [[Colonel]] [[Shelly Brubaker]], issued a ''[[batchall]]'' for the Port St. William Spaceport. Star Colonel '''Creed Mattlov''' answered her call by dispatching two [[Trinary|Trinaries]] to fight the Dragoons' 1st Battalion in a Trial of Possession for the spaceport.

The Trinary Bravo's Bravo Talon 2 and Bravo Beak were dispatched to the combat, where the two forces' light and medium OmniMechs engaged the Dragoons' forward units. They were easily dispatched by the elite forces of the Dragoons' forward elements. The Dragoons then began dispatching their units to destroy the supplies stored in the spaceport's warehouses. The Mattlov's trinaries arrived on scene and engaged the Dragoons in what devolved into a close-quarters combat which disregarded the rules of ''[[zellbrigen]]''. The battle escalated to the point where the Dragoons called in reinforcements. Mattlov called in the rest of the Regulars to engage the Dragoons.

The battle became more merciless as Mattlov and his Dragoon counterpart called in both aerospace and artillery fire support to aid in their fight. In the end, the Dragoons achieved their objective of destroying the Jade Falcons' supplies, but Mattlov declared victory by forcing the Dragoons to withdraw and for having to call in reinforcements.<ref name=BCspSP>''The Battle of Coventry'', p. 9, 35–37: Runaway - Details of the Battle of Coventry for the 12th Falcon Regulars.</ref>

===Raid on Sudeten===
He was still the commanding officer when in the early 3060s the [[AFFC]] sent the [[5th Deneb Light Cavalry]] and [[12th Deneb Light Cavalry]] to raid [[Sudeten]]. The [[8th Falcon Regulars (Clan Jade Falcon)|8th Falcon Regulars]] and Twelfth Falcon Regulars inflicted massive losses on the 12th DLC: Barely a third of the attacking 12th DLC was able to withdraw.<ref name=FMFSp88>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 88</ref>

===Falcon Incursion of 3064===
The Twelfth Falcon Regulars with majority of the [[Rho Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Rho Galaxy]] were deployed as part of the [[Jade Falcon Incursion (3064)|Falcons' new incursion]] into Lyran Alliance in May [[3064]].

The unit arrived on the Lyran world of [[Koniz]], and fought the world's militia, the [[Koniz PTM]] for three months until they withdrew from the planet in August.

The unit was then deployed with entire [[Galaxy]] to [[Rasalgethi]] in October, where they fought [[Brion's Legion]] and the world's militia force, [[Kelenfold PTM]]. The Twelfth Falcon Regulars along with the rest of the Rho Galaxy, fought a relentless campaign against the Legion, which held out long enough to see the militia force fold, and reinforcements to arrive. [[Snord's Irregulars]] had arrived in 14th December. However, despite losing one of its sister units against the Irregulars, the Regulars along with their own reinforcements successfully forced Lyran forces off the planet by the 30th.<ref name=FCCWSP>''FedCom Civil War'', pp. 115–117, 185: Falcon Incursion - Unit participated in fighting with bulk of Rho Galaxy.</ref>
