This article is undergoing revision as part of Project: Planets, a collaborative effort to improve BattleTechWiki's coverage of planets and systems. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can add your name to the list of volunteers.

This article has completed Phase 5 of the Overhaul effort.

Blackstone
System Information
X:Y Coordinates-123.88 : 473.52[e]

The Blackstone system was home to at least one habitable world or construct and as at 3145 was located in the Periphery region known as The Barrens.[1][2]

System Description

The Blackstone system was located near the Oberon VI and Zertarum systems.[3][4]

System History

Blackstone was either settled during the Star League era by the Rim Worlds Republic or was an already-settled system that became significant enough during this era for Inner Sphere nations to record it's location on maps.[5][6][3][4]

Political Affiliation

Planetary History

Blackstone was a part of the Apollo Province of the Rim Worlds Republic.[14] By 3025 it was a part of the Oberon Confederation and was subsequently annexed by Clan Wolf during Operation REVIVAL.[16][17][25]

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.[35]

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.[36]
