Owner History

Planetary History

Blackstone was a part of the Apollo Province of the Rim Worlds Republic.[7] By 3025 it was a part of the Oberon Confederation and was subsequently annexed by Clan Wolf during the Clan invasion of the Inner Sphere.[9][10][17]

Clan Invasion

On August 3049 Clan Wolf's Silver Keshik and Beta Galaxy attacked the planet Blackstone. The defending Blackstone Guards company in their aging machines were destroyed by the superior Clan troops.[28]

Jihad

The Clan Wolf troops withdrew, but several Clan merchants arranged for technical support to be sent to Blackstone. These technicians helped to rebuild several fortresses on the world, creating a modern Castle Brian.[29]
