Planetary Description

Sterope is a industrial world located in the Hydes Cluster. It sometimes referred to as "New Taurus" due to mining & weapons manufacturing abilities. The planet is home to Sterope Defense Industries as well as corporate unit of Taurus Territorial Industries.

Planetary History

Succession Wars Era

The planet was settled with colonization efforts of the Concordat by 26th Century.[2]

By 3028 Sterope had become one of major weapons manufactures outside the Hydes Cluster. Its industry vital cog in Taurian defense industry. However, the planet was not assigned by major frontline BattleMech force. The planetary nobility used their own funds to raise its own regiment of troops, which was given name of Noble's Regiments. These paramilitary forces, man series of large static defense fortifications which were situated around various and population complexes on the planet. Each of these battalion of infantry were at the command of regional nobility who funded them. Using strategy holding out against powerful enemy until reinforcements can arrive.[3]
