Owner History

Planetary Info

Vantaa was conquered by forces from Clan Wolf during Operation Revival, the Clan invasion of the Inner Sphere. In 3071, the Clan Wolf occupation zone was itself subject to an invasion, as Clan Hell's Horses carved itself a holding in Spheroid space. The Hell's Horses conquered had conquered Vantaa by August of 3071,[5] but in December forces from Clan Ice Hellion struck at the Hell's Horses on Vantaa and the nearby world of Seiduts in retaliation for the Horses conquering a number of of worlds that the Ice Hellions had only recently acquired from Clan Jade Falcon.[7][8] Three months later in March 3072 troops from both the Jade Falcons and Hell's Horses landed on Vantaa,[8][9] beginning a series of battles that would lead to the shattering of the last of the Ice Hellion forces in the Inner Sphere in the last two weeks of April, but which also compromised the vital life-support industries on the planet.[8][10]

In early 3072, after the decisive battle of Clans Jade Falcon and Hell's Horses against Clan Ice Hellion the planet has been depopulated.[11]
