Line 1: − {{Update Needed|[[Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3]]|[[First Succession War (sourcebook)]]}}+ The Chainelane Isles are a small deep periphery realm consisting of several worlds, residing in a space 100 light years in diameter and 100 light years core-ward of the [[Greater Valkyrate]]. The Isles are home to several small duchies or principalities, each possessing a few worlds. Like the [[Successor State|successor states]], these neighboring principalities vie for supremacy and have been fighting constant, [[Succession Wars|Succession War]]-style combat for years. − [[Image:Chainelane Isles.jpg|right|thumb|Chainelane Isles]] − The '''Chainelane Isles''' is a region in the [[deep periphery]] spanning some 100 lightyears and situated 100 lightyears coreward of the [[Greater Valkyrate]]. Described as a "miniature [[Inner Sphere]]", the Isles are not a unified realm but instead are home to numerous small duchies or principalities. Like the [[Successor State|successor states]] of the Inner Sphere, these neighboring principalities constantly vie for supremacy and have been fighting [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession War]]-style combat for a long time.<ref name=TP2EDp91-92>''The Periphery, 2nd Edition'', pp. 91–92: "The Chainelane Isles"</ref>+ Though [[BattleMech]] technology is present within the Isles, not one of the Chainelane Isle denizen states are able to manufacture their own [[BattleMech]] forces. [[BattleMech|BattleMechs]] are reserved for protection of significant objectives and decisive actions. Each of the nations within the Isles also deals with traders upon chance encounters, and attempts to acquire modern [[BattleTechnology]]. With generally little success in these endeavors, wars within the Isles are fought almost exclusively by infantry and combat vehicles.

'Mechs were rare and prized assets much like in the [[lostech]]-ridden [[BattleTech eras|Succession Wars era]] of the Inner Sphere. Each nation within the Isles also deals with traders upon chance encounters, and attempts to acquire modern technology. Because the states of the Chainelane Isles rarely acquire the technology required to significantly turn the tide of war, wars within the Isles are fought almost exclusively by infantry and conventional armor. Though warfare within the Isles may be grinding upon the combatant armies, the collateral damage caused by this warfare is minimal at most, and few borders change within the Isles.<ref name=TP2EDp91-92/> − − During the [[Clan Invasion]] of the Inner Sphere, the Chainelane Isles stood in the path of the Clan juggernaut. However, only the [[Duchy of Vendôme]]'s military effectively disappeared "overnight" within the Isles. This led to speculations by [[ComStar]] that the [[Clans]] may have tested their mettle on an "Inner Sphere" opponent before reaching the Inner Sphere's periphery border.<ref>''Explorer Corps'', p. 57: "Chainelane Isles"</ref> − − In [[3055]], conflicting mercantile interests between [[Clan Diamond Shark]] and the [[Hanseatic League]] resulted in skirmishes near Chainelane space.
