During the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] used the caves on Hobbs as a giant warehouse for supplies and matériel, used to support units throughout the Capellan March. The native animals known as the [[Takooma]] viewed this as an intrusion into their habitat, and waged a guerrilla war against the human intruders.<ref name="HDp201"/>

=== Planetary Locations ===
'''Hobbs''' is a dry world whose native lifeforms are confined to the vast underground cave systems. These caves have their own extensive ecosystem, with the [[Takooma]] at the top of the pyramid. These apelike mammals often come into conflict with the [[AFFS]] troops stationed on the world. The AFFS uses the caves as a giant warehouse, storing supplies and materials for use by units in the Capellan March. The Takooma see this as an intrusion, and have been engaging in a guerrilla war against the humans.<ref name="HDp201"/>

Hobbs IV - more commonly known simply as Hobbs - is the fourth planet in the system.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

Succession Wars[edit]

During the Succession Wars the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns used the caves on Hobbs as a giant warehouse for supplies and matériel, used to support units throughout the Capellan March. The native animals known as the Takooma viewed this as an intrusion into their habitat, and waged a guerrilla war against the human intruders.[1]

Military Deployment[edit]

2764[edit]

Geography[edit]

Hobbs is a dry world whose native lifeforms are confined to the vast underground cave systems. These caves have their own extensive ecosystem, with the apelike mammals known as the Takooma at the top of the ecological pyramid.[1]

Planetary Locations[edit]

  • Luray Caverns, the planetary capital city.[1]
