Prior to the Periphery Uprising, the SLDF had formed ten Army Groups one for each of the member and territorial states. Those assigned to one of the member states were further divided into three districts and bore the name of the state's ruling family, e.g.

Each Corps was named based on its theater of operations and recruitment:īy 2764, the SLDF had over 15,000 regiments and just as many WarShips, JumpShips and DropShips. At the outset of the Reunification War the SLDF was divided into 10 Corps. Organization and Combat Doctrines Īt the birth of the Star League, the SLDF was comprised of roughly 270 regiments of ground forces (conventional armor, infantry and BattleMechs), as well as a fleet of greater than 500 capital vessels. The SLDF would return 300 years later as the Clans, a technologically superior military that invaded the Inner Sphere in 3049. Kerensky then led the surviving 113 divisions out beyond the Inner Sphere in Operation EXODUS, hoping to save the essence of the League from the internecine violence that was to come. However when no new First Lord could be agreed upon by the Great Houses the Star League was dissolved. After a long series of bloody battles throughout the Star League, Commanding General Aleksandr Kerensky ended the coup with the liberation of Terra and the execution of Amaris. The Star League Defense Force left the Inner Sphere after fighting the Amaris Civil War, when Stefan Amaris overthrew the ruling First Lord of the Star League, Richard Cameron.



At its height the SLDF was the largest military force known to man, composed of over 100 million soldiers organized into 486 divisions. The Star League Defense Force ( SLDF) was the principal military force defending the Star League, a conglomeration of star systems within roughly 500 light years of Terra.
