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
Nox was one of the targets of the 2463-2468 Long March Offensive conducted by the Lyran Commonwealth, and was invaded in the first three years of the campaign. The second prime objective of the Long March in part due to the many gem deposits to be found on the world, Nox was attacked after the successful invasion of Skondia. The campaign for Nox wasn't as easy as the battle for Skondia but the BattleMech forces available to the Lyran armed forces ensured their victory over the defending DCMS contingent.[5]
Nox 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 Second 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.[45][46]
Clan Invasion
Clan Wolf invaded Nox in February 3052 during the Fifth Wave of Operation Revival. The 11th Battle Cluster easily defeated the 1st Nox Armored Regiment, 1st and 2nd Nox Infantry Regiments at the Hiel Crossroads and the battle for Bolsun, after which the militia surrendered.[47]
