Planetary Info

New Rhodes III is a world filled with harsh deserts. There are only two features that attracted humans, one scientific and one military.[1]

The scientific feature is the "Colossii of New Rhodes", a chain of nearly 150 geological towers scattered across the vast desert like islands in a sea, has become a tourist attraction that brings people from across the Inner Sphere.[1]

The military reason for humans visiting this world is more prosaic: The system's star is located very close to New Rhodes III. This means that travel times are very short, allowing forces to quickly arrive, raid the world, and leave. However the short travel times also allow friendly units to resupply very quickly from the on-world warehouses.[1]

Planetary History

Star League

New Rhodes III served as the location for multiple orbital shipyards and drydocks. These massive installations and factories supported much of the 3rd Fleet (SLDF) with maintenance and replacement parts. To defend this vital infrastructure the 32nd Pursuit Squadron called this system its home port. At any given time the vessels William Halsey or Port Hope were in system protecting the important installations.[42]

Republic of the Sphere

In 3134 pro-Draconis Combine rebels operating under the banner of the Dragon's Fury used Garrot Superheavy Transports to haul artillery between the various Colosii mesas in support of their drive on the planetary capital, Xerxes.[43]
