System Description[edit]
The Rollis system is located near the Laconis and Bromhead systems. It contains at least two plants and lies Rimward from Terra.[3][1]
The Rollis Repair Center, a DropShip repair and refit facility, is located at the 1st Lagrange point (aka L1 Point) of Rollis II.[2]
System History[edit]
The Rollis system was colonized by the Taurian Concordat sometime prior to 2366.[4]

Planetary History[edit]
Early History and Reunification War[edit]
Originally settled by the Taurian Concordat,[4] Rollis was one of a number of systems conquered by the Star League during the Reunification War and was effectively annexed by the Federated Suns, as of 2750.[5]
First Succession War[edit]
The Capellan Confederation conquered the system in turn during the First Succession War.[11][12]
Raid of 3027[edit]
A Lance of BattleMechs from the Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers raided Rollis in 3027 as a way to blood several new MechWarriors and clashed with the defending Rollis Home Guard around Vidalia Bay.[39]
Civil War[edit]
Although as of 3067, Rollis lacks a charging station, the planetary ruler of Rollis has been lobbying the Prefectorate to approve construction of at least one recharge station to help speed travel between the Taurian Concordat and the Capellan Confederation. Rollis does possess a small orbital repair facility for DropShips and small craft.[1]

- Longwood's Bluecoats (mercenary)[31]
3079[edit]
- - At this point in time, the Kingston's Rangers were deployed across Yuris, Zanzibar and Rollis. The Rangers were at 75% of full strength, with 90% of their equipment featuring upgraded technology.
3085[edit]
- Third Confederation Reserve Cavalry (deployed across Repulse and Ward)[45]
Geography[edit]
Rollis has three continents, Como, Spruce and Wright; the capital city, New Harmon, is on Como.[2] Worthy of note is the equatorial island of Iskandia, which is the source of an unusual kind of wood noted for its pungent aroma, strength and near-imperviousness to fire. This wood commands high prices throughout the Confederation and, via the black market, the Federated Suns Capellan March. Another island of interest is Tucson, site of the open city of Freeport; located close to a dry lakebed used as a spaceport, with the tacit approval of the planetary ruler Freeport caters to prospectors and independent traders filtering through Rollis, as well as travelers to and from the Periphery looking to acclimatize en route to their final destination. Freeport more closely resembles a Periphery settlement than it does a large Successor State city.[1]
Planetary Locations[edit]
- Duchy Reginal Training Center: training facility for combat vehicle crews and infantry.[2]
- New Harmon: capital city.[1][2]
- Vidalia Bay: site of a battle in 3027 between the Rollis Home Guard and Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers.
