The Waldorff system was home to at least one habitable world, Waldorff II, and as at 3145 was located in the Clan Jade Falcon Occupation Zone.[2][3]

System Description

The Waldorff system is located near the Alyina and Butler systems[2][3] and consists of a class G0V primary orbited by at least two planets. During the twenty-eighth century recharge stations were in place at both the nadir and zenith jump points.[1]

System History

The Waldorff system was settled before or during the Age of War and was a member of the Lyran Commonwealth by the end of that era.[4]

Waldorff II

Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Waldorff II - more commonly known simply as Waldorff - is the second planet in the system and has a single moon named Nikola.[1]

Planetary History

Clan Invasion

Waldorff was conquered by Clan Jade Falcon during the Third Wave of Operation REVIVAL in June 3050. Defending the planet against the invading Second Falcon Jaegers was the planet's only armed force, the Waldorff City Police Department. Despite consisting of only one company of infantry, two armored cars and an UrbanMech, the police gave a good showing of themselves: four Elementals were killed and an OmniMech was crippled during the fighting due to the police's intimate knowledge of the city, which allowed them to lead the Clan invaders into prepared ambushes before escaping through the city's sewer and storm drainage system. Their heroic efforts were all for nought though, and in the end most of the police were killed or captured and the central precinct house destroyed by the Jade Falcons.[5]

In November 3051, the planet was transferred from the Jade Falcons to the Steel Vipers, after an decision by IlKhan Ulric Kerensky himself. No fighting occured between the two Clans during this move, and the Triasch Keshik took command of the planet.[6]
