Planetary History
Exodus
When the Tamar family founded the interstellar state known as the Tamar Pact in 2235, Nox was one of the worlds that formed a part of the Pact and represented one border of the realm, which stretched as far as Suk II and Fatima.[2]
Age of War
The planet is noteworthy for having been the site of the first-large scale BattleMech battle in the history of the Inner Sphere. The Draconis Combine assaulted Nox in 2475, making use of their newly-fielded BattleMech forces, developed in secret following the Combine acquiring BattleMech technology in the early 2460s. The assault, spearheaded by the 2nd Sword of Light regiment, saw the Combine forces suffer a heavy defeat; the loss on Nox was sufficiently humiliating that the reputation of the primitive GLD-1R Gladiator 'Mech was permanently tarnished, with production halted and investment instead made into the development of the new Von Rohrs as the Combine's primary BattleMech. The 2nd Sword of Light's performance resulted in their commanding officer being quickly replaced by Colonel Ibis Von Rohrs.[25][26]
