Originally known as the Cussar system, the Barlow's Folly system was home to at least one habitable world and as at 2750 was located in the Irurzun Prefecture of the Benjamin Military District within the Draconis Combine.[1][2]

System Description

The Barlow's Folly system is located near the New Mendham and Reisling's Planet systems.[1][2]

System History

Originally named Cussar, the Barlow's Folly system was settled at some point during the Age of War and by the end of the Age of War was a part of the Federated Suns.[3][4]

Between the 7th and 14th of August 3068 Barlow's Folly was one of six worlds raided by a combination of small 'Mech units under the employ of the Draconis March of the Federated Suns and teams of Federated Suns commandos. The deep objective raids targetted undefended worlds, allegedly to find and liberate prisoners of war in captivity within the Combine since the FedCom Civil War. The six worlds targeted were Altais, Barlow's Folly, Beta Mensae V, Chichibu, Junction and Misery, and apparently some POWs were discovered.[25]
