==System Description==
 +
Ferris is located near the [[Jeppens]] and [[Trimaldix]] systems<ref name="HB:MPSp147"/><ref name="ER:2750p37"/> and consists of a class G6V primary orbited by at least two planets.<ref name=O:TCp23/>
 +
 
 +
==System History==
 +
The Ferris system was either colonized by the [[Outworlds Alliance]] during the [[Star League era]] at some point after the [[Reunification War]], or was an already-inhabited system that became significant enough for [[Inner Sphere]] nations to begin recording its location on maps during this era.<ref name="HB:MPSp147"/><ref name="ER:2750p37"/>

Ferris didn't attract significant attention from the [[Star League]] and [[Draconis Combine]] forces during [[Operation UNION HOLD]], the five-year campaign from [[2581]] to [[2585]] intended to forcibly incorporate the Outworlds Alliance into the Star League. Other nearby worlds such as [[Banori]] and [[Loparri]] were subject to damaging raids by Star League forces, acting under orders from the Outworlds Alliance Task Force commander, [[General]] [[Amos Forlough]], to defeat the will and means of the Alliance to resist by targeting towns, cities and infrastructure on worlds across the Alliance. Ferris may well have been a target for such a raid as well given the systematic manner in which the [[Star League Defense Force]] were attacking Alliance worlds, but the pivotal battle now known as the [[Day of Vengeance]] fought on the nearby mining world of [[Tellman IV]] stopped the Star League raids indefinitely.<ref name="H:RWp124">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 124: "Day of Vengeance"</ref> After the [[Treaty of Cerberus]] came into effect on 1 August 2585, Ferris remained a member of the Outworlds Alliance.<ref name="H:RWp106"/><ref name="H:RWp159"/><ref name="H:RWp126">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 126: "Year Five: Peace in Our Time"</ref>

'''Ferris''' has three continents, Wiener Riesenrad, Tempozan where the capital city Chicago is located and Diakanransha.<ref name=O:TCp23/>

Ferris was also the location of an [[AGDA]] training facility for militia [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]],<ref>''Objectives: The Clans'', p. 16</ref><ref name=O:TCp23/> armor personnel, and conventional infantry. The AGDA facility on Ferris was suffering from a decline in training levels, as the facility was increasingly refusing to interact with the other three major AGDA facilities located in the Alliance because of a desire to avoid being "tainted" by the Snow Ravens. Despite the decline in training standards the facility was trying to reactivate its former [[aerospace fighter]] program.<ref name=O:TCp23/>

The world of Ferris is very similar to Terra despite some remarkable differences within the Ferris star system itself. Ferris was the second planet in a star system of six worlds, not the third like Earth, with five rocky-terrestrial worlds and one gas giant orbiting far beyond the inner worlds. There was a mineral rich asteroid belt between the fifth and sixth worlds, The Outworlds Alliance had set up an asteroid mining operation with a processing station and worker habitats. Ferris was slightly bigger than Earth with its gravity 1.04G compared to Earths 1G, so things were a little heavier. The locals joked the extra weight caused by the slightly heavier gravity was the "Ex-Wife Effect."  Ferris had no moon so it spun perfectly upright on its axis, thus it did not have seasons such as Earth has, instead it only had summer and winter. It was also a slightly colder world with its hottest regions in the equator only reaching into the high 70 degrees temperatures. Its highest animal life form was reptiles, with the largest only being as large as a Terran- house cat. There was a full thriving ecosystem of arthropods and reptiles on the land masses and a diversity of sea life in the shallow oceans. The plant life was similar to Earths, with the largest plants being bushes and massive ferns, trees had not evolved yet on Ferris. However there were massive man-planted forests of both hardwoods and softwoods all over the world in huge plantations. There were also extensive grasslands across the planet and a ring of tundra around each of Ferris's polar caps. there was also one feature unique to Ferris, An airborn algae called simply, " Aerial Algae," or the Aerigae as the locals called. It was an air born floating form of algae that  was distributed throughout the planets atmosphere. This gave Ferris a greenish sky instead of a blue sky, and with its G6V class sun that was slightly more yellow than ours, the sunsets were a deep emerald. So it was much like our Earth but very different at the same time. Ferris was colonized in the late 2300's during the Age of War in an attempt to leave the war torn early Inner Sphere nations. The Clans had taken the world easily from the overmatched Ferris Guards, existing of one company of twelve ageing battlemechs.  The planet had over 50 million civilians and huge areas of agriculture so it was considered a combination population-agriculture world by Wolf Clan strategists. There were three main continents, Wiener Riesenrad covered with grassland and scrub brush home to large farming collectives, with only two major cities, it stretched from pole to pole. Tempozan, where the capital city of Chicago was located, was more temperate than the other two. It received the heaviest rainfall so most of the huge Tree-farms were situated on it, along with most of the worlds population. And Finally Diakanransha, A hot jungle covered continent it easily reached the planets hottest temperatures and it only reached the southern pole with one of the shallow oceans stretching around to the other one. Far to the south a desert bordered the jungle it reached lower to the southern polar cap arctic region. All three land masses were only separated by three shallow oceans that stretched from pole to pole in  long ribbons across the face of the planet with two of them connected across the Diakanransha continent.

This article is about the Outworlds Alliance planetary system. For the coreward Periphery system, see Ferris (OC).

The Ferris system was the location of at least one habitable world, Ferris II, and as of 3145 was an independent Periphery system on the border of the Raven Alliance.[2][3]

System Description[edit]

Ferris is located near the Jeppens and Trimaldix systems[2][3] and consists of a class G6V primary orbited by at least two planets.[1]

System History[edit]

The Ferris system was either colonized by the Outworlds Alliance during the Star League era at some point after the Reunification War, or was an already-inhabited system that became significant enough for Inner Sphere nations to begin recording its location on maps during this era.[2][3]

Ferris II, more commonly known simply as Ferris, is the second planet in the Ferris system.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

Reunification War[edit]

Ferris didn't attract significant attention from the Star League and Draconis Combine forces during Operation UNION HOLD, the five-year campaign from 2581 to 2585 intended to forcibly incorporate the Outworlds Alliance into the Star League. Other nearby worlds such as Banori and Loparri were subject to damaging raids by Star League forces, acting under orders from the Outworlds Alliance Task Force commander, General Amos Forlough, to defeat the will and means of the Alliance to resist by targeting towns, cities and infrastructure on worlds across the Alliance. Ferris may well have been a target for such a raid as well given the systematic manner in which the Star League Defense Force were attacking Alliance worlds, but the pivotal battle now known as the Day of Vengeance fought on the nearby mining world of Tellman IV stopped the Star League raids indefinitely.[40] After the Treaty of Cerberus came into effect on 1 August 2585, Ferris remained a member of the Outworlds Alliance.[5][6][41]

The Jihad[edit]

Ferris was also the location of an AGDA training facility for militia MechWarriors,[42][1] armor personnel, and conventional infantry. The AGDA facility on Ferris was suffering from a decline in training levels, as the facility was increasingly refusing to interact with the other three major AGDA facilities located in the Alliance because of a desire to avoid being "tainted" by the Snow Ravens. Despite the decline in training standards the facility was trying to reactivate its former aerospace fighter program.[1]

Military Deployment[edit]

3064[edit]

3079[edit]

Geography[edit]

Ferris has three continents: Wiener Riesenrad, Tempozan—where the capital city Chicago is located—and Diakanransha.[1]

Planetary Locations[edit]

  • AGDA Training Facility Ferris: a military training facility located in Chicago on Tempozan.[1]
  • Chicago: The planetary capital city, located on Tempozan.[1]
