==Description==
'''''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus II''''' (alternately titled '''''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus''''') is primarily a scenario pack set on the [[Lyran Alliance]] world of [[Hesperus II]] during the [[Word of Blake]] [[Jihad]], detailing the Blakists' successful efforts to capture the important manufacturing world—[[Operation STEEL HAMMER]]—and [[Stone's Coalition]]'s successful ejection of the Blakists from the planet four years later. It contains a full color topographical map of Hesperus II, along with a printable version for use with [[BattleForce]]. Suggested optional rules from ''[[Tactical Operations]]'' are presented to provide "flair".

{{Quote|''One of the most important manufacturing worlds in the Inner Sphere, Hesperus II was a primary objective of the Word of Blake's Operation STEEL HAMMER. The plan was designed to disrupt the Lyran Alliance's economic and industrial base. Long before attempting to seize Hesperus II, the Word concocted a lengthy invasion plan to weaken Lyran defenses. The Blakists aimed to succeed where other invaders had failed.''

* The front/cover title of this product is ''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus'' (''i.e.'', minus the Roman numeral 'II'), however the proper name is ''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus II''. In other words, this is ''not'' part of a series of ''Turning Points'' about [[Hesperus II]].
