Second Imperial Legion (Pre-Y12)

Birth of the Legion

The Second Imperial Legion (2IL) (also known as the Hellhounds) of the Imperial Army, was formed only shortly before the Imperial Army reformation and has lasted through many conflicts since the time of its initial formation. It remains one of the top fighting forces of the Galactic Empire and His Majesty, Emperor Thomas Cherokee to this very day. The Second Imperial Legion has fought in many of the battles that plagued the Galactic Empire and has always remained loyal to Emperor. During a particularly bloody battle on Thyferra the Second Imperial Legion took the most losses on the battlefield, but also brought down a third of their opponents alone. Their kill-death ratio was one of the most impressive of that battle, regardless of their alarming number of losses. The Second's ranks surged forward without any regard for their own lives, driving the Rebels into a scared retreat. Their bravery and sheer will in several battles including that one, not just to survive, but to crush anything that opposed the Galactic Empire, earned the Second Imperial Legion the well deserved nickname of "Hellhounds" - a name that they are proud of to this day. The legion has since then grown, both in strength, and will into one of the toughest and meanest Imperial Army legions; the legionary pride of their armed forces in the Galactic Empire. The Second has become one of the most inspirational legions in the Imperial Army, with an amazing history behind it. The Second has also seen many great commanders come and go, but none of them ever forgotten.

Operations and Missions

Imperial operations conducted by or in part with the Second Imperial Legion:

Sullust Mission Against the Sorosuub Corporation's rising threat, the Empire sent the experienced Second Legion to the faction's capital planet of Sullust to a show of force. In the Legion's biggest and most acclaimed mission ever since its creation, the Hellhounds performed with courage and ingenuity in the enemy backyard. Full Walker and Infantry formations were coordinated successfully and the Imperial Army was able to keep a close hold on the planet for several weeks, storming enemy buildings and performing mass arrests. By this time the Second Imperial Legion, known as Hellhounds, became a force to be feared and known among the Galaxy.
