New Avalon, December, 3052 Com Guard troops which are losing their stations elsewhere on the Clans front are invited to the seven remaining planets of the Free Rasalhague Republic, a spokesman for Elected Prince Magnusson announced today. The new twenty year contract allows an unlimited number of Corn Guards forces to build up garrisons on the Rasalhague planets of Orestes, Al Hillah, Grumium, Karbala, Ueda, Deh Ian, and Tukayyid to supplement the four regiments. whicrremain of Rasalhague's Kungsarmee. The Com Guards will defend against any invaders, not only Clans, but any and all invading forces. Tukayyid itself, scene of the epic baffle between Com Guards and Clans forces last May, still remains abandoned by most of its civilian population. Com Guard regiments here, as elsewhere in the Inner Sphere, have begun renaming themselves after episodes in the Baffle of Tukayyid where the units distinguished themselves. This replacement of religious 'code names' is reassuring to the populace of the Rasalhague worlds. There is still a distrust of ComStar because it waited so long to enter the fight against the Clans. ComStar is in the position of being 'The devil we know' which is still better than the Clans, 'the devil we don't know'. The Precentor Martial, Anastasius Focht, personally travelled to New Avalon to take part in these negotiations. The Elected Prince has been in New Avalon to confer with First Prince Victor Steiner Davion and Archon Melissa about mutual defense. All parties involved deny any rumors that the Federated Commonwealth or the Draconis Combine have any intentions of invading Rasalhague to secure the rest of its territory.
