The Heiligendreuz system — often referred to as the "Heiligenkreuz" system and sometimes spelled Heiligenkreutz or Heiligendreutz[1] (see Notes below about the name) — was the location of at least one habitable world and as of 3145 was located in the Radstadt Province of the Rasalhague Dominion.[2][3]

System Description[edit]

The Heiligendreuz system is located close to the Gunzburg and Karston systems.[2][3]

System History[edit]

The Heiligendreuz system was colonized during or shortly before the Age of War and was a member of the Lyran Commonwealth by the beginning of the Star League era.[4][5][6]

Political Affiliation[edit]


Planetary History[edit]

Fourth Succession War[edit]

Heiligendreuz was captured by the Lyran Commonwealth during the first wave of Operation GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG, with the mercenary unit Bad Dream deployed to conquer the planet.[48] The Commonwealth retained control of Heiligendreuz until at least January 3030, by which point the Lyran Commonwealth had ended the offensive actions launched as a part of Operation HOLDUR and was consolidating its gains.[23] Coordinator Takashi Kurita ordered the DCMS to halt all but the most promising attacks and assume a defensive posture; by the time the war was officially ended via a peace treaty mediated by ComStar[49] Heiligendreuz had been returned to Combine control,[26] most likely either via a counterattack or as a part of the peace negotiations.

Operation REVIVAL[edit]

Heiligendreuz was conquered in the Fifth Wave of Operation REVIVAL by Clan Wolf.[50]

Military Deployment[edit]

Notes[edit]

  • The name seems to be a misspelling of Heiligenkreuz ("Saint's Cross" in German, and the name of several towns or villages in Austria). It is consistently spelled Heiligenkreuz in the German edition of BattleTech, and even occasionally spelled thus in canonical material.[1]
