The Snow Raven Yards at Lum was the only shipyard facility in the Clan Homeworlds capable of consistently constructing new WarShips from scratch. Snow Raven Yards was a Clan Snow Raven facility.
Overview[edit]
Other Clans seeking to construct new WarShips typically contract with Clan Snow Raven for the use of their shipyards.[1][2] This is largely due to the Snow Ravens having extensive design documents, schematics, and doctrinal materials relating to the WarShips used by the SLDF Navy.[3]
During the Wars of Reaving, in 3068,[3] a naval force of Clan Goliath Scorpion arrived in-system after a failed attack by Clan Star Adder units. The Scorpions declared a Trial of Possession for the Yards. The Raven leader used all the system's assets for the defense, but after the facility's defenses attacked a Scorpion WarShip, the Scorpion forces opened fire on them, and more than half the Yards was destroyed in the fighting. The Scorpions won the Trial, so they stripped the remains of the Yards of anything useful and moved all the salvaged sections they could to their Roche positions.[4] The main driving force for this Trial was the Scorpions' desire to collect the WarShip design documents brought by the SLDF during the Exodus.[3]

The Snow Raven Yards was a manufacturing center on the following planet:

Notes[edit]
^ Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade mentions a Bashkir launching from the Snow Raven Yards in 3036.[7] It's unclear if it implies construction at the yards, or perhaps originally at the Crest Foundries and then delivered to the yards before being launched.
