−	In [[2344]], Reynard Davion used two Federated Suns task forces to stage demonstrations of strength around [[Mirach]] to keep the attention of the Grand Union and its armed forces focused there; Reynard then used this distraction to use a reserve task force to launch a highly successful attack on [[Almach]], another world that had been contested between the [[Tikonov Union]] and the [[Marlette Association]] prior to the Association's merge into the Federated Suns. Reynard's reserve task force had been mustered at Achernar, which was on the Capellan border at the time,<ref name="HD(TFS)p26"/> and was therefore likely to have been mustered with either tacit or open approval from the Terran Hegemony.	+	In [[2344]] Reynard Davion used two Federated Suns task forces to stage demonstrations of strength around [[Mirach]] to keep the attention of the Grand Union and its armed forces focused there; Reynard then used this distraction to use a reserve task force to launch a highly successful attack on [[Almach]], another world that had been contested between the [[Tikonov Union]] and the [[Marlette Association]] prior to the Association's merge into the Federated Suns.

named '''Achernar''' by the population - has been inhabited for centuries and is host to a number of industrial facilities belonging to companies such as Achernar IndustrialMechs,<ref>''A Call to Arms'', p. 100</ref> [[Achernar BattleMechs]] and [[Valiant Systems]]. ===Planetary History=== ====Early History==== The settlements on Achernar were founded by the [[House Achernar|Achernar family]]. By [[2344]] Achernar was a possession of the Terran Hegemony.<ref name=DARWp67/> The Hegemony had initiated two "Campaigns of Persuasion" to occupy former [[Terran Alliance]] worlds by force, and by [[2335]] had expanded as far as [[Nanking]].<ref name="TSLp16">''The Star League'', p. 16: "Terra's Errant Flock"</ref> Nanking was the furthest world from [[Terra]] to have been occupied by that point, but the [[Tikonov Grand Union]] went to war with the Terran Hegemony between [[2336]] and [[2338]] over the [[Chisholm Protectorate]], a nation which included Nanking and which had been attacked or conquered by the Hegemony. The Hegemony was ultimately victorious in this conflict, and continually sided with the [[Free Worlds League]] and the [[Federated Suns]] when it came to settling or influencing any disputes either nation had with any of the various nations of the Capellan Zone.<ref name="HL(TCC)p19">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 19: "Terra Resurgent"</ref> In [[2344]] Reynard Davion used two Federated Suns task forces to stage demonstrations of strength around [[Mirach]] to keep the attention of the Grand Union and its armed forces focused there; Reynard then used this distraction to use a reserve task force to launch a highly successful attack on [[Almach]], another world that had been contested between the [[Tikonov Union]] and the [[Marlette Association]] prior to the Association's merge into the Federated Suns. Reynard's reserve task force had been mustered at Achernar, which was on the Capellan border at the time,<ref name="HD(TFS)p26"/> and was therefore likely to have been mustered with either tacit or open approval from the Terran Hegemony. ====The Star League==== During the Star League, the Achernar family established Achernar [[BattleMech]]s to produce the ''[[Dervish]]'' for the [[Star League Defense Force]]. After the fall of the Star League, the Achernar noble family immigrated to the Federated Suns, but the cost of the immigration was moving the Achernar BattleMechs factory to New Avalon. The Capellan Confederation took control of the world before the [[First Succession War]]. The [[Fourth Succession War]] would return Achernar to the noble family that bore its name. After their return, the Achernar family established Achernar [[IndustrialMech]]s on Achernar.<ref name=DARWp67/> ====Third Succession War==== In [[2870]] a Star League Engineering Library was discovered in the Aloi Forest on Neswa by the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]].{{cn}} ====FedCom Civil War==== During Wave Six the [[Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers]] fought with the [[Third NAIS Cadet Cadre]] against the [[Achernar SMM]], which were loyal to [[Katrina Steiner]], and suffered light losses in the resulting battles with the Militia. The SMM retreated under heavy casualties off world in the face of a regular army unit.{{cn}} ====The Jihad==== The [[Word of Blake]] attacked and conquered Achernar during September [[3069]] and incorporated it into the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]].<ref name="J:FRp47">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 47: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> The [[Word of Blake]] upgraded the [[Achernar BattleMechs]] West Fabrication Facility to enable it to produce BattleMechs in addition to the IndustrialMechs it had produced before; the upgraded facility subsequently produced huge quantities of the [[Osprey]] medium BattleMech for the Blakists.<ref name="TRO:3085p82">''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 82: "Osprey"</ref> On 18 July [[3071]], protestors in the cities of Indigo and Royalport planned coordinated demonstrations against the local noblemen responsible for a raise in labor taxes. Both nobles, knowing of these meetings, increased their security, but things escalated when the protesters discovered the arrests of several of their leaders over the lack of permits for those meetings and started to vandalize the noblemen's holding. The private security forces responded with lethal force and after the last [[PoliceMech]] in Indigo had responded, eighty-nine people were dead, with three more dying in hospitals during the night. Achernar was placed under martial law for a period of one week while the [[Duke]] attempted to sort the mess out.<ref name="MobViolenceStrikes"/> When allied coalition forces prepared to assault Achernar as a part of the Federated Suns front of [[Operation SCOUR]] in June [[3077]] the planetary governor surrendered immediately to the inbound troops, but the [[Achernar Protectorate Militia]] refused to surrender and instead dug in around the West Fabrication Facility. The coalition troops from Group IV were forced to dig the Militia out from the factory complex, and as a result of this combat action the West Fabrication Facility was destroyed.<ref name="J:FRp57">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 57: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> In addition to the unknown number of Blakists killed when the factory was destroyed, two companies of the [[Iron Guard]] were confirmed to have been wiped out.<ref name="JHS:Tp37">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 37: "Liberated Achernar"</ref> Media outlets within the Federated Suns credited [[Field Marshal]] [[Katheryn Sandoval-Ito]] with leading the assault on Achernar personally from her ''[[Devastator]]'' and with leading the critical tipping point in the battle for the planet.<ref name="JHS:Tp40">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 40: "Sandoval-Ito: A Study in Success"</ref> ====Post-Jihad==== As a part of the extensive rebuilding taking place across the worlds of the Republic of the Sphere the destroyed West Fabrication Facility was redeveloped into a factory complex for the vehicle manufacturer [[Valiant Systems]]. Highlighted in a news report as an example of the ongoing recovery efforts by Federated Suns reporter [[Peter Remonde]] on the 15th of August [[3081]], Valiant Systems was due to begin production imminently of industrial vehicles as well as the [[Fox (Combat Vehicle)|Fox armored car]], with plans already in motion to expand production on Achernar to include the [[Ranger VV1|Ranger Infantry Fighting Vehicle]].<ref name="J:FRp30">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 30: "Strange Bedfellows"</ref> ====The Dark Age==== During the [[Dark Age]] the Bahari Bay region was a popular tourist site, and the large agricultural fields located around the bay and Falconville City were dedicated to supporting the tourism industry. The Husfa Desert was known for a number of annual endurance races held there, while the Tamash Jungle's diverse range of wildlife—both predator and prey—made it a popular destination for adventurous hunters.{{cn}} The abundant resources on Kal continued to attract interest during this era, and a number of mining companies waged covert property-rights wars over the various resources. A similar hotspot of activity was the Alberton Woods on Ram, the bulk of which had been declared a protected zone by planetary officials; despite the protected status of the woods, the number of rangers employed to protect and patrol it wasn't sufficient and the rangers were vastly outnumbered.{{cn}} After the Blackout, Achernar was one of the few worlds with a working HPG station making it strategically important.<ref>''A Call to Arms'', p. 45</ref> In [[3133]], the [[Steel Wolves]] attempted to capture the HPG complex on Achernar, only to be blocked by a [[Swordsworn]] contingent under the command of [[Erik Sandoval-Groell]].<ref name="ED:DAp7">''Era Digest: Dark Age'', p. 7: "Important Military Actions of 3133"</ref> In late [[3135]], the Swordsworn were actively battling with the [[Republic Armed Forces]] for control of Achernar.<ref name="LNp17">''Dark Age: LinkNet Articles (3136)'', p. 17: "Letters From Home -- Week 02"</ref> The planet's [[HPG]] station was one of the few working inside the [[Republic of the Sphere]] in [[3135]].<ref name=EDDAp4>''Era Digest: Dark Age'', p. 4: "Functional Republic HPGs as of 01 January 3135"</ref> In [[3136]], the station cofounded [[LinkNet (news service)|LinkNet]].<ref name=DALNp1>''Dark Age: LinkNet Articles (3136)'', p. 1: "Welcome to LinkNet"</ref> ===Planetary Rulers=== ====3130==== * Governor Susan Haider<ref name=DARWp67/> * Planetary Legate Rudy Maks<ref name="ACtAp45">''A Call to Arms'', p. 45</ref> ====3133==== * Planetary Legate Brion Stempres<ref name=DARWp67/> ===Military Deployment=== ====3038==== * [[Achernar Sarna March Militia]]<ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 138: "Deployment Table"</ref> ====3050==== * Achernar Sarna March Militia<ref name=20YU24>''20 Year Update'', p. 24: "Federated Commonwealth Deployment Table"</ref> ====3054==== * Achernar Sarna March Militia<ref>''Objective Raids'', p. 17: "Deployment Table - 3054"</ref> ====3067==== * Achernar Sarna March Militia<ref name=FMU137>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 137: "Draconis Combine Deployment Table"</ref> :- In 3067 the Achernar SMM operated at 50% of full strength, with 65% of their equipment featuring Star League technology. ====3077==== * [[Achernar Protectorate Militia]]<ref name="J:FRp57"/><ref name="JHS:Tp37"/> ====3133==== * [[Achernar Republic Standing Guard]]<ref>''A Call to Arms'', pp. 20, 40</ref> ===Geography=== Achernar is a temperate world; the continents have vast carpets of lush plant life and are dotted with large patches of thick woods. There are also a number of open plains and deserts to be found on the surface; most of the dry landmasses on the planet lie more than 2,000 meters above sea level.{{cn}} The continents of Achernar include Acul, Dilma, Eridanus, Kal, Neswa, Ram, South Raviri and North Raviri. Acul lies in the southern hemisphere, north of the Cruel Sea, and is divided almost evenly in half by a range of mountains known as the Akron Mountain Range. The northern regions of Acul are covered in thick forests, the largest of which is the Alberta Forest.{{cn}} The continent of Dilma is divided into two main regions, the Dilma Jungle and the Akma Desert, while the Eridanus continent features three major rivers, the Brightwater River and the Shaw and North Plateau Rivers.{{cn}} Kal is the largest continent on the planet and is dominated by the Arair Desert in the southwest, vast open plains across the center of the continent and light forests further north. The southeastern corner of Kal is home to Hash Bay, and the entire continent is rich with natural resources and the Arair Desert is well-known for its oversized snakes similar to Terran sidewinders.{{cn}} Neswa is a U-shaped continent in the southern hemisphere and is covered by large stretches of hilly terrain, with hills that reach a height of five hundred meters being very common. Neswa is south of the continent of Kal, and the sea separating the two is named the North Sea. Neswa has a number of significant terrain features including Bahari Bay in the northwest, the Husfa Desert - a scorching, boulder-strewn and broken landscape - to the southwest, the Tasma Jungle to the southeast and the Aloi Forest to the northeast. A key feature of the Bahari Bay region are the Grey, Salt and Snake Rivers running through the region.{{cn}} The continents of North and South Raviri lie in the equatorial regions of Achernar; south of North Raviri is the Raviri Sea, which separates North Raviri from Neswa. Both continents are dominated by thick jungle known as the Adder Jungles, and the eastern edges of both continents feature an annual monsoon season that visits each with a steady stream of torrential downpours. In contrast, the western regions of both continents receive very little rainfall. South Raviri is home to an active volcano known as the Aimwell Volcano.{{cn}} The continent of Ram lies in the southern hemisphere north of the Cold Ocean, and is mostly covered by a light forest known as the Alberton Woods.{{cn}} ===Planetary Locations=== * Achernar Military Base: home to the bulk of the Achernar SMM, the military base is located north of Falconville on Neswa.{{cn}} * Bahari Bay: a popular tourist location on northwest Neswa, well-known for beaches, deep-water fishing and water sports.{{cn}} * Eridanus-24: the main continental highway on Eridanus, connecting all the major cities and towns as well as various small mining and fishing hamlets.{{cn}} * Falconville City: located in Bahari Bay, this is the largest city in the Bahari Bay Province on Neswa.{{cn}} * Highlake Basin: a popular location for hiking and photography on Eridanus.<ref name=AchernarI>''Information Is Ammunition: The Battle for Achernar!'', Introduction</ref> * Indigo: one of the planet's cities.<ref name="MobViolenceStrikes">''Mob Violence Strikes Indigo, Royalport''</ref> * Landova City: a remote city on Eridanus.{{cn}} * Landova Reservoir: a popular camping location located on the border of the Pathfinder Wildlife Refuge.{{cn}} * Landova Spaceport: a small spaceport with a single drop pad and one runway, this spaceport on Eridanus is responsible for connecting Landover City with the rest of the world.{{cn}} * Palisades Reservoir: located on Neswa, this reservoir is fed by the Grey, Salt and Snake Rivers and is a key target for the planetary defenders.{{cn}} * Pathfinder Wildlife Refuge: a substantial wildlife preserve on Eridanus.{{cn}} * River's End: planetary capital city, located at the terminus of the Brightwater River on Eridanus. * Royalport: one of the planet's cities.<ref name="MobViolenceStrikes"/> * San Marino Spaceport: a major spaceport serving River's End City on Eridanus.{{cn}} ===Companies and Industries=== * [[Achernar BattleMechs#Achernar|Achernar BattleMechs' West Fabrication Facility]] (destroyed in [[3077]])<ref name="J:FRp57"/><ref name="JHS:Tp37"/> * [[Adventure Travels]] <ref name=DALLp3>''Dark Age: 3136 Levin's List'', p. 3: "31 March 3136"</ref> * [[Valiant Systems]]<ref name="J:FRp33+">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', pp. 33–34: "Achernar: An Example of Recovery"</ref> == Image gallery == <gallery> File:Achernar Flag.jpg|Planetary Flag of Achernar File:Achernar_Planetary_Map.png|Planetary Map of Achernar, ca.
