Planetary Info

Tamarind is known across the Inner Sphere for the quality of its artwork. Many artists start on Tamarind and charge a premium for their artworks, leaving many native Tarmarindians out in the cold. Tamarind's focus on art and its production was the result of the many raids and combat engagements that took place on the world. These fights destroyed most of the world's industrial capability and damaged the food production. As a result, Tamarind is a world that was once beautiful but by 3025 it was covered by pockmarks, craters, and destroyed forests, leaving little of the original beauty behind.[1]

During and immediately after the Jihad Tamarind was the only BattleMech manufacturing site in the Duchy of Tamarind-Abbey - although, given the lack of local military manufacturing, the BattleMechs produced were all RetroTech models.[37] Graham-Davis Enterprises also expanded into a new niche in the military-industrial market in the late 3080s with the introduction of the Patron PatrolMech.[35]

During the Jihad Vankateswara BattleMech Refit Facility produced the Icarus, Trooper, and Rook RetroTech designs. The plant was shut down by 3079 however.[38]

Tamarind is the capital world of the Tamarind District. It is also the only industrial system remaining in the District, with the Brett-Marik family looking to increase the industrial capacity of the planet.[2]

Tamarind's capital city is Zanzibar. The area near the capital city is mainly deserts, rich in oil reserves. The river of Zanzibar run through city and into desert near sandy dunes of Harvison Flats. The planet has two continents, Moan and Dhofar.[2]
