The '''Lyran Second Armored Brigade''' is a [[Combat Vehicle]] oriented combined arms formation employed by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
===Poulsbo===<br />
While assigned to [[Poulsbo]] in [[3028]], the unit was positioned in the city of Silverdale where it was to defend the Bangor Military base from an incoming [[House Marik|Marik]] raid. The Brigade was placed in the city, while the [[First Regulan Hussars]] made their landings. Once elements of the Regulans entered town, the Brigade began its counterattack, leading the Lyran defenders. It then sent its [[VTOL]] Lance in flanking action on outskirts of the city, while elements of the Hussars retreated. <br />
<br />
Among the First Regulan Hussars was the [[Rolling Thunder Company]], which along with other units inflicted considerable amounts of damage against the Brigade and its elements while they retreated off planet.<ref>''Rolling Thunder'', pp. 28–29: Thunder meets Lightning - Lyran 2nd Armored Brigade's actions and its basic command structure.</ref><br />
