Located in the Kerensky Cluster, Ironhold is the Clan Homeworlds capital of Clan Jade Falcon.

Overview

Controlled solely by Clan Jade Falcon, Ironhold was the Falcon's capital as well as the location of their primary training and manufacturing facilities in Clan Space. Their capital city of the planet was named Ironhold City.

In November 3069 the Steel Vipers initiated an assault on Ironhold as part of the Wars of Reaving. The entire Alpha Galaxy landed on the world after declaring the defenders dezgra. The Twelfth Talon and Zeta Solahma Clusters held out for a month before being destroyed.[2]

Three years later, an unidentified force landed at Ironhold and shattered the defenders. This 3072 strike was the first open action made by The Society. The Steel Viper's Omicron Galaxy was totally destroyed.[3] After action reports indicate that Ironhold was a key world for The Society, housing much of their research.[4]
