Planetary History

Star League

During the final years of the Star League, Isesaki was the headquarters world of the XXXV Corps (Star League) of the Star League Defense Force.[40]

The Jihad

Isesaki was raided by Word of Blake forces in late March 3075; the infamous Opacus Venatori targetted the Isesaki Shipping headquarters in the commercial district of Ukonosi City specifically, levelling a wide swathe of the district and the headquarters building. Viscount Ernest Machida was killed in the attack.[41][42] The Blakist force was finally defeated by local militia forces led by Tai-sho Chris Moran who mobilised additional militia forces to reinforce those already fighting and led a counterattack against the Blakist spearhead in the commercial district on the east side of the Black River. The Isesaki Shipping headquarters was destroyed when the retreating Blakist forces activated self-destruct devices in their fallen BattleMechs, with the estimated civilian death toll reaching almost six and a half thousand as a result. Initial investigations indicated that the Blakist raiders had used captured Isesaki Shipping vessels to infiltrate onto the world.[43]

In May 3081 Coordinator Hohiro Kurita's son Vincent Kurita and his wife Ramiko honeymooned on Isesaki after their wedding on Kirei Na Niwa.[44]
