==History==<br />
Though [[First Prince of the Federated Suns|First Prince]] [[Hanse Davion]] forbade Duke [[Paul Stephenson]] of New Ivaarsen from using his [[New Ivaarsen Chasseurs]] from retaking his lost landhold, Duke Paul ensured a steady volume of supplies and support for an underground movement against the Combine occupation. When he received word that [[AFFS]] would send the Fusiliers to retake Royal as his Chasseurs prepared for action elsewhere, the Duke sent his son [[Leto Stephenson]] to accompany the [[Tortuga Fusiliers]] mercenary unit as their liaison officer. Duke Paul then proceeded to recruit a [[battalion]]'s worth of [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] from both Chasseur [[regiment]]s as well a regiment from New Ivaarsen's militia to create the [[New Ivaarsen Volunteers]]. Just before the Fusiliers [[JumpShip|jumped]], Leto signaled his father, who immediately dispatched the Volunteers. As soon as they arrived on-world, Colonel Stephenson assumed direct command of the Royal invasion. With word of their duke's son leading the invasion, almost the entire population of Royal rose up against the three Kurita conventional regiments stationed on-world. While suffering heavy losses, the people of Royal played a decisive role in ensuring Colonel Stephenson and his Volunteers ejected the Combine forces in a mere five weeks. <ref name=HWo3039-50/><br />
