−	The Austerlitz system was a member of the [[Finmark Province]] of the Rim Worlds Republic, and became an independent system with the collapse of the Republic after the fall of the Star League. Austerlitz remained on maps until some point during the [[Third Succession War]], at which point the system had either been depopulated, abandoned, or had become too insignificant for Inner Sphere nations to continue recording.<ref name="HB:HSp40"/><ref name="HB:HSp47">''Handbook: House Steiner'', p. 47</ref>	+	==Owner History==

−	-------------------------------------	+	In late [[2584]] the SLDF changed tactics again; a number of major RWA units had been destroyed or captured, and the focus for the campaign shifted to capturing worlds of strategic importance, but the campaign was slowed by the greatly increased resistance offered by the RWA and local civilian populations, prompted by atrocities performed by the [[Draconis Auxiliary Corps]] when they captured [[Nightwish]] in mid-2584. [[Archon]] [[Viola Steiner-Dinesen]] of Battle Group Finmark assigned the [[31st Armor Division|Thirty-First Armor Division]] - one of two [[division]]s within the SLDF [[VIII Corps (Star League)|VIII Corps]] - to the conquest of Austerlitz and the neutralization of the Sixth Fusiliers in [[2587]].<ref name="H:RWp152"/>

A multinational force headed by the [[Star League Defense Force]], Task Force MAILED FIST was responsible for executing [[Operation MAILED FIST]], the name given to the military intervention. the first wave of attacks focused on securing significant worlds near [[Apollo]],<ref name="H:RWp132">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 132, "Case Apollo"</ref> until a destructive raid on [[Alarion]] by forces from the Fourth Fusiliers in retaliation prompted the SLDF to alter its initial strategy for the campaign, the focus shifted to reducing [[Rim Worlds Army]] concentrations throughout the Republic and the capture of key worlds.<ref name="H:RWp133">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 133, "Island Hopping (2582 - November 2590)"</ref> In late [[2584]] the SLDF changed tactics again; a number of major RWA units had been destroyed or captured, and the focus for the campaign shifted to capturing worlds of strategic importance, but the campaign was slowed by the greatly increased resistance offered by the RWA and local civilian populations, prompted by atrocities performed by the [[Draconis Auxiliary Corps]] when they captured [[Nightwish]] in mid-2584. [[Archon]] [[Viola Steiner-Dinesen]] of Battle Group Finmark assigned the [[31st Armor Division|Thirty-First Armor Division]] - one of two [[division]]s within the SLDF [[VIII Corps (Star League)|VIII Corps]] - to the conquest of Austerlitz and the neutralization of the Sixth Fusiliers in [[2587]].<ref name="H:RWp152"/> The heavily outnumbered Sixth Fusiliers fought to great effect on Austerlitz, turning the battle for control of the planet into a brutal slugging match; the Sixth Fusiliers used their heavy units to lock the Thirty-First in place and then used their light armor to launch fast, slashing attacks on the Thirty-First's infantry regiments. The Thirty-First drew on the available [[AeroSpace Fighter]] support and fast [[BattleMech]] [[company|companies]] to try and counter the Sixth Fusiliers' tactics, and while these efforts were partially successful the Sixth Fusiliers had still inflicted enough damage on the Thirty-First Division before being defeated at the end of the three-week battle to force the Thirty-First to have to be temporarily withdrawn from the Task Force MAILED FIST order of battle for refitting.<ref name="H:RWp134+">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 134-135, "Arlina to Viborg (December 2584 - September 2588)"</ref> ===The Dark Age=== Austerlitz vanished from maps during the [[3rd Succession War]],<ref name="HB:HSp40"/><ref name="HB:HSp47"/> but had reappeared by [[3130]] as a part of the nation known as the [[Rim Territories]], although the world had been renamed '''Scauld'''.<ref name="MotIS3130"/> ==Nearby Systems== {|class="wikitable" width='800' style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" ! colspan="10" | Systems within 60 light-years (distance in light years)<br> Closest systems first: |- | [[Oporto]] | 18.55 | [[Anatolia]] | 30.13 | [[Aboukir]] | 31.33 | [[Lywick]] | 35.39 | [[Lushun]] | 40.84 |- | [[Viluisk]] | 43.53 | [[Edirne]] | 45.25 | [[Finmark]] | 54.61 | [[Inner Surge]] | 54.84 | [[Canal]] | 55.91 |- | [[Delagoa]] | 55.98 | [[Malaga]] | 57.37 | [[Kwangjong-ni]] | 58.99 | | | | |} ==Notes== It was confirmed that Austerlitz and Scauld were one and the same by the [http://www.classicbattletech.com/forums/index.php/topic,9040.0.html Catalyst Game Labs writing staff.] ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * '[['Era Report: 3145]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Steiner]]'' * ''[[Handbook: Major Periphery States]]'' * ''[[Historical: Reunification War]]'' * ''[http://home.ifi.uio.no/~oysteint/btech/maps/IS_3130.pdf Map of the Inner Sphere 3130]'' [[Category:Planets|Austerlitz]] [[Category:Planets|Scauld]] [[Category: Independent Planets]] [[Category: Rim Worlds Republic Planets]] [[Category: Rim Territories Planets]]
