The Federated Suns is one of the five Successor States of the Star League, located rimward and spinward of Terra. Ruled by House Davion, the Federation is the most powerful of the five, and the people of the Federation pride themselves on their self-proclaimed role as defenders of justice and liberty. The Federation is quite capable of ruthless, decisive action, though, and its idealism readily gives way to pragmatism when called for. The current ruler of the Federation, Katherine Steiner-Davion, has usurped power from the regent Yvonne. The Federation's alliance with the Lyran Commonwealth effectively ended the Third Succession War.
Sub-Commands
Davion Assault Guards
 Davion Assault Guards Unit Rating: Elite |
The Davion Assault Guards are the premier regiment of the Federated Suns. Armed with the best materials and veering towards assault and heavy mechs, the Assault Guards have held the line against any foe and have even defeated two Capellan Chancellors in their time (killing Ilsa Liao in 2828 and forcing Dainmar Liao into suing for peace in the Second Succession War).
2nd Crucis Lancers
 2nd Crucis Lancers Unit Rating: Regular |
The 2nd Crucis Lancers owe their fealty and prosperity to the Davion family, much as other Crucis Lancer formations do. However, after being badly mauled during the Succession Wars, the 2nd was deactivated for a time in order to rebuild. Now rebuilt, the 2nd stands ready to repay House Davion's faith in them by winning victories over House Davion's foes.
1st Kittery Borderers
 1st Kittery Borderers Unit Rating: Garrison |
The 1st Kittery Borderers date to the Second Succession War after Dainmar Liao's surrender on St. Ives. Originally raised to garrison the captured world of Kittery, the Borderers eventually slid from an elite rated unit to a regular rated one after decades of garrison duty. Still, the Borderers stand ready to resist any enemy of the Suns.
10th Lyran Guards
 10th Lyran Guards Unit Rating: Regular |
The 10th Lyran Guards are incredibly critical of the sitting Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth, Katherine Steiner, claiming she is a pretender to the throne. Because the 10th backs First Prince Victor Steiner-Davion in his bid to heal the divisions of the realm they have been blacklisted by Katherine, a situation which only encourages the unit's loyalty to the First Prince.
Note: This unit fields Regular rating Lyran (Steiner) units.
