Planetary Info
New St. Andrews is an isolated Periphery planet, located anti-spinward of the Circinus Federation. The planet is home to a quartet of Scottish clans, and possesses few natural resources.
Planetary History
In 2293, the Stewart Confederacy, a six-world state, was annexed by the Free Worlds League. Rather than pay fealty to the Free Worlds League, the Brannigan, MacGregor, Sterling and Stewart clans decided to leave League space in 2294, avoiding the destruction of Stewart. The clans resettled on the worlds of York and Lancaster. Shortly thereafter, these Scots and Scots-Irish clans were forced to move again, this time because of annexation by the Protectorate of Donegal. The clans moved to the remote world of Loxley, but again were displaced - this time because Archon Robert Marsden of the Lyran Commonwealth decided to annex the pastoral world. The clans made what they believed was their last exodus, settling Somerset within the Rim Worlds Republic.[6] The clans resided on Somerset for nearly 400 years. At the outset of the Amaris Civil War, all four clans realized the Rim Worlds Republic would be destroyed by Aleksandr Kerensky and the SLDF, so the clans relocated to the remote world of New St. Andrews in the late 28th century.
As the clans were refugees forced to flee quickly from their homes, the settlers of New St. Andrews possessed precious little technology. The clans decided to establish an agrarian society on part of the northern continent, practicing subsistence farming, including equine and ovine husbandry. As each clan grew, border disputes between clans and quarrels over land and water became more common. Society appeared to be heading for "barbarism".
Before open warfare could begin on New St. Andrews, exploratory vessels from Periphery neighbors discovered the clan settlements on New St. Andrews. Pirate raids and the attention of Periphery neighbors convinced the Stewart and MacGregor clans to end the hostilities. The two clans then crossed the continental divide, traveling to the other side of the northern continent. Separated from the now-warring Sterling and Brannigan clans, the MacGregors and Stewarts established a single settlement and prepared for eventual raids by the other clans. As the MacGregor/Stewart settlement became stable and profited, the Sterling and Brannigan clans crossed the continental divide and began scorched-earth raiding. The MacGregor/Stewart alliance was able to fend off the raiders, and both clans have endeavored to "rehabilitate" their erstwhile friends ever since.
In 3081 it was reported that Meridian Manufacturing, the corporation located on New St. Andrews and which was responsible for the development of the Arbiter IndustrialMech, had begun to not only produce a new variant of the Arbiter but had also purchased the required licenses to manufacture Stinger and Wasp BattleMechs. Whether these 'Mechs will feature RetroTech technology or modern technology remains to be seen.[7]
