Overviev

Often refered to as 'New Taruus', Sterope is one of the largest centers of weapons production outside the Hydes Cluster. With a native population in excess of 75 million Sterope is home to Sterope Defense Industries as well as units of Taurus Territorial Industries. Weapons systems produced there run the gamut from Dropships and AreoSpace Fighters to Tanks and small arms. Considering how important these centers are to the Taurian Defense Force the Protector has not assigned a perminate TDF Mech unit or sub-unit to defend the planet. Instead the planetary population depends on a massive series of interlocking static defenses and the local Nobel Regiments.

Throughout the Sterope's history, the Noble Regiments raised by the nobility of Sterope have manned the many reinforced static gun emplacements to guard the planet's industries. These units have always held off attackers long enough for reinforcements to arrive, and so the Protector sees no reason to station 'Mech and armor units on the planet. Many in the Taurian Defense Force feel it is only a matter of time before the Noble Regiments run out of luck.
