Owner History

Planetary Info

Radstadt wasn't a well industrialized world. However, it was known for a unique wood, the Radstadt pine which, when processed, shimmers like gold, as well as a large prison complex. The decentralized population is supplied with food from the planet's rich oceans.[2]

Radstadt was a member of the Principality of Rasalhague until it was conquered by the Draconis Combine. After the forcible integration of the Principality into the Combine, Radstadt became a prefecture capital world. Radstadt Prefecture was the center of the Rasalhague Independence movement. The ISF stationed many agents on the world to monitor these activities.[6] The new ruler built the Lotus Flower Correctional Institution - the largest prison complex within Kurita's borders at the time. Eventually the planet returned to the Free Rasalhague Republic and the prison complex was transformed into a museum.[2]

History

In 3050 Radstadt was attacked by Clan Wolf led by the ilKhan himself. During the battle Rasalhague pilot Tyra Miraborg crashed her bomber into the Clan Flagship, killing Leo Showers. The Clans still won the battle, but the invasion was stopped for a year. During the Clan attempts to introduce a new economic model to the planet's population the unemployment rate raised up to about 25%.

After being part of a ComStar protectorate for several years after the Truce of Tukayyid, the citizens of Radstadt were eager to evict ComStar and join forces with the Ghost Bears.[9]

On the 7th of March 3074 forces from Clan Ghost Bear moved to disrupt a Word of Blake Shadow Division which was operating covertly on Radstadt.[10] In the resulting fighting, the Word of Blake forces detonated a number of neutron bombs on Radstadt and unleashed a number of biological weapons, poisoning critical parts of the planet's ecosystem.[11][12] The initial Blakist attacks directly resulted in four million deaths on Radstadt.[13] A bioweapon designed to target the Tseng bloodname was first released on Radstadt.[14]
