Owner History

Planetary Info

Though Brockway has a harsh, rugged environment that would normally cause colonists to bypass the world the presence of rich mineral resources and ores brought miners to the system. After they landed the colonists discovered that the plants and animals that lived here were excellent sources of nutrition. Commercial agricultural operations soon began, and exports of Brockway's foodstuffs enabled colonization of several nearby worlds that were otherwise marginal.[1]

Brockway was originally a world held by the Taurian Concordat, but the Federated Suns occupied it during the Reunification War. Since that time the AFFS has used the world as the cornerstone of their defense against Taurian aggression. Persistent rumors suggest that the AFFS and DMI placed a listening post on the world.[1] During the FedCom Civil War it was also the site of several conflicts between the 11th Avalon Hussars and components of the Lexington Combat Group.

In response to the asteroid bombardment of Taurus and evidence that implicated the Federated Suns, the Taurian Concordat launched a second invasion of the Federated Suns during the Jihad. Brockway was an early target, captured during late June 3074. The Taurian conquest of Brockway involved using nuclear weapons against AFFS pickets, as did the campaigns on Bromhead and Midale, resulting in more than ten million Federated Suns civilian and military deaths[16][17]
