Owner History

Planetary Info

Gotterdammerung was one of seven worlds settled by colonists from the Rim Worlds Republic between 2334 and 2338 as an attempt by Maxwell Rowe to create a buffer zone between the Republic, the Draconis Combine and the Tamar Pact.[2] Gotterdammerung is a cold world covered in ice and snow. There is only a thin band of inhabitable area around the world's equator, but even here only the tough reindeer-like animals can really survive an thrive. In 3025 the world only had around 1000 inhabitants, most of them herding the reindeer or supporting the pirate operations.[1]

Clan Jade Falcon conquered Gotterdammerung during the opening stages of Operation Revival, the Clan invasion of the inner Sphere. Gotterdammerung was then invaded for a second time in October 3071, when forces from Clan Ice Hellion captured the world from the Falcons.[13][14] The Ice Hellions were only able to hold Gotterdammerung for a few weeks, however; forces from Clan Hell's Horses assaulted Gotterdammerung in December, part of a series of strikes that shattered the Ice Hellion invasion force.[14]
