−	In August [[3050]] Vipaava was invaded by [[Clan Ghost Bear]] at part of [[Operation REVIVAL]], during the fourth wave of attacks. The invading forces were drawn from the [[14th Battle (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fourteenth Battle Cluster]], which deployed Alpha Battle [[Star]] of the 23rd Battle Trinary and Alpha [[Nova (unit)|Nova]] Star of the 76th Supernova to capture the planet. The Ghost Bear forces issued a ''[[batchall]]'' to the defending 22nd Rasalhagian Free Company, a mixed unit of one [['Mech]] [[company]] and two [[infantry]] [[regiment]]s, who agreed to the challenge and to meet at the Lion's Den, a rock outcropping well away from the nearest cities and towns.  Suspecting a trap, the Ghost Bear warriors were surprised to find the defending the Twenty-second not only waiting to engage them at the location agreed upon, but then fought in an honorable fashion. Alpha Nova Star engaged the Twenty-second first and swiftly decimated the [[KungsArmé]] forces, forcing the survivors to surrender. The defeat of the Twenty-second was a major factor in convincing senior officers in the KungsArmé that winning a straight fight against Clan forces was impossible, and that new tactics would be needed.<ref name="ICp32">''Invading Clans'', p. 32-33, "Wave Four"</ref>	+	In August [[3050]] Vipaava was invaded by [[Clan Ghost Bear]] at part of [[Operation REVIVAL]], the [[Clan]] invasion of the [[Inner Sphere]], during the fourth wave of attacks.

Choosing a world far from Terra and the oppressive bureaucracy that went with it, the first colonists left in the mid-[[Twenty-third century]] and within sixty years had settled [[Rasalhague]] and eight other nearby worlds<ref name="20YUp44"/> including Vipaava.<ref name="HB:HKp18"/> In the late Twenty-third century these worlds created a joint government to oversee the development of the worlds, creating the [[Rasalhague Consortium]]. Contact with other interstellar nations led to the Consortium evolving into the short-lived Principality of Rasalhague, prior to the Principality being conquered by the Draconis Combine in the early to mid [[Twenty-fourth century]].<ref name="20YUp44">''20 Year Update'', p. 44, "Origins"</ref> ====Clan Invasion==== In August [[3050]] Vipaava was invaded by [[Clan Ghost Bear]] at part of [[Operation REVIVAL]], the [[Clan]] invasion of the [[Inner Sphere]], during the fourth wave of attacks. The invading forces were drawn from the [[14th Battle (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fourteenth Battle Cluster]], which deployed Alpha Battle [[Star]] of the 23rd Battle Trinary and Alpha [[Nova (unit)|Nova]] Star of the 76th Supernova to capture the planet. The Ghost Bear forces issued a ''[[batchall]]'' to the defending 22nd Rasalhagian Free Company, a mixed unit of one [['Mech]] [[company]] and two [[infantry]] [[regiment]]s, who agreed to the challenge and to meet at the Lion's Den, a rock outcropping well away from the nearest cities and towns. Suspecting a trap, the Ghost Bear warriors were surprised to find the defending the Twenty-second not only waiting to engage them at the agreed-upon location, but then fought in an honorable fashion. Alpha Nova Star engaged the Twenty-second first and swiftly decimated the [[KungsArmé]] forces, forcing the survivors to surrender. The defeat of the Twenty-second was a major factor in convincing senior officers in the KungsArmé that winning a straight fight against Clan forces was impossible, and that new tactics would be needed.<ref name="ICp32">''Invading Clans'', p. 32-33, "Wave Four"</ref> ===Military Deployment=== ====2786==== * [[22nd Rasalhague Regulars|Twenty-second Rasalhague Regulars]]<ref name="FSWp137">''First Succession War (Source Book)'', p. 137, "First Succession War Deployment Table - DCMS"</ref> ====3050==== * [[22nd Rasalhagian Free Company|Twenty-second Rasalhagian Free Company]] (until August)<ref name="ICp32"/> ====3061==== * [[115th Striker (Clan Ghost Bear)|115th Striker Cluster]]<ref name=FMWC163>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 163, "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> * [[18th Provisional Garrison Cluster (Clan Ghost Bear)|Eighteenth Provisional Garrison Cluster]]<ref name=FMWC164>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 164, "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> ===Geography=== ===Planetary Locations=== {{scrollbox| * Bled: Planetary capital in 3050.<ref name=AAG/> * Lion's Den: A rock outcropping well away from the nearest cities and towns and site of the battle between the Twenty-second Rasalhagian Free Company and elements of the Fourteenth Battle Cluster from Clan Ghost Bear.<ref name="ICp32"/> * Železniki: a small alpine village just outside of Bled.<ref name=AAG/> }} ===Companies and Industries=== == Nearby Systems == <!-- NOTE: This table is automatically generated by BattleTechWiki:Project_Planets/Mapping, and any edits to this section may be overwritten at any time by a bot --> {|class="wikitable nearby-systems" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" ! colspan="8" | Closest 28 systems (26 within 60 light-years)<br>Distance in light years, closest systems first: |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Radlje]] | class="lessthan30" | 7.2 | class="lessthan30" | [[Pomme De_Terre|Pomme De Terre]] | class="lessthan30" | 9.2 | class="lessthan30" | [[Predlitz]] | class="lessthan30" | 23.8 | class="lessthan30" | [[Last Frontier]] | class="lessthan30" | 25.6 |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Spittal]] | class="lessthan30" | 26.2 | class="lessthan30" | [[Jezersko]] | class="lessthan30" | 26.9 | class="lessthan30" | [[Rasalhague]] | class="lessthan30" | 29.1 | class="over30" | [[Casere]] | class="over30" | 31.6 |- | class="over30" | [[Dawn]] | class="over30" | 32.4 | class="over30" | [[Trondheim (FRR)|Trondheim]] | class="over30" | 36.4 | class="over30" | [[Ferleiten]] | class="over30" | 39.7 | class="over30" | [[Leoben]] | class="over30" | 40.0 |- | class="over30" | [[Goito]] | class="over30" | 41.2 | class="over30" | [[Hermagor]] | class="over30" | 41.7 | class="over30" | [[Courchevel]] | class="over30" | 42.6 | class="over30" | [[Christiania]] | class="over30" | 44.0 |- | class="over30" | [[Polcenigo]] | class="over30" | 48.0 | class="over30" | [[Corfu]] | class="over30" | 48.4 | class="over30" | [[New Oslo]] | class="over30" | 48.6 | class="over30" | [[Susquehanna]] | class="over30" | 50.7 |- | class="over30" | [[New Bergen]] | class="over30" | 52.9 | class="over30" | [[Balsta]] | class="over30" | 53.1 | class="over30" | [[Engadin]] | class="over30" | 53.6 | class="over30" | [[Radstadt]] | class="over30" | 57.5 |- | class="over30" | [[Soverzene]] | class="over30" | 59.4 | class="over30" | [[Svelvik]] | class="over30" | 60.0 | class="over60" | [[Jarett]] | class="over60" | 60.5 | class="over60" | [[Tovetin]] | class="over60" | 60.7 |- |} == References == <references/> == Bibliography == * ''[[20 Year Update]]'' * ''[[Airs Above Ground]] (short story) * ''[[Era Report: 2750]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3052]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3062]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3085]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: SLDF]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Warden Clans]]'' * ''[[Field Report: Clans]]'' * ''[[First Succession War (Source Book)|First Succession War]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Kurita]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2]]'' * ''[[Historical: Reunification War]]'' * ''[[Historical: War of 3039]]'' * ''[[House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)]]'' * ''[[Invading Clans]]'' * ''[[Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents]]'' * ''[[Jihad: Final Reckoning]]'' [[Category:Systems|Vipaava]] [[Category:Planets|Vipaava]] [[Category: Clan Ghost Bear Planets]] [[Category: Draconis Combine Planets]] [[Category: Ghost Bear Dominion Planets]] [[Category: Free Rasalhague Republic Planets]] [[Category: Principality of Rasalhague Planets]] [[Category: Rasalhague Consortium Planets]] [[Category: Rasalhague Dominion Planets]]
