Planetary History[edit]

Founding[edit]

Colonists from the Federal Democratic Republics of Finland, Norway and Sweden emigrated in significant numbers after the end of the War Damage Tax payments levied on them as a part of the international rebuilding effort following the Second Soviet Civil War. Choosing a world far from Terra and the oppressive bureaucracy that went with it, the first colonists left in the mid-twenty-third century and within sixty years had settled Rasalhague and eight other nearby worlds[2] including Holmsbu.[3] In the late twenty-third century these worlds created a joint government to oversee the development of the worlds, creating the Rasalhague Consortium. Contact with other interstellar nations led to the Consortium evolving into the short-lived Principality of Rasalhague, prior to the Principality being conquered by the Draconis Combine in the early to mid-twenty-fourth century.[2]

Clan Invasion[edit]

Holmsbu was conquered in March 3050 by Clan Ghost Bear as part of the First Wave of Operation REVIVAL. The Forty-third Elemental Support Trinary of the 12th Bear Chevaliers was tasked with taking the planet, defended at the time by the Seventh and Eighth Corrugated Lancers, a pair of armored regiments supported by infantry. The defending Lancers confronted the Clanners at Redwood and Linden's Bluff, but were ill-prepared to face the battle armored Elementals. They were quickly defeated by the Ghost Bear warriors and surrendered.[44]

First Combine-Dominion War[edit]

Operating out of Wolcott during the First Combine-Dominion War (3062 to 3063), the Black Omen mercenary unit secretly penetrated the Ghost Bear Dominion to raid Pinnacle, Holmsbu, and Thule where they disabled each planet's HPG and destroyed several supply depots.[45]

The Jihad[edit]

In March 3076 Holmsbu was the first of four Ghost Bear Dominion worlds to be raided by Clan Ice Hellion stragglers after the failed Ice Hellion invasion of the Clan Jade Falcon Occupation Zone several years before.[34][35]
