===Planetary History===
 
 
'''Smithon''' was a part of the [[Sian Commonality]] of the Capellan Confederation and was one of the border worlds adjacent to the [[Taurian Concordat]] during the [[Star League]] era. Smithon is located near [[Umgard]] and [[Tyrlon]] and vanished from maps during the [[Second Succession War]].<ref name="HB:HLp31"/><ref name="HB:HLp39"/>
 
'''Smithon''' was a part of the [[Sian Commonality]] of the Capellan Confederation and was one of the border worlds adjacent to the [[Taurian Concordat]] during the [[Star League]] era. Smithon is located near [[Umgard]] and [[Tyrlon]] and vanished from maps during the [[Second Succession War]].<ref name="HB:HLp31"/><ref name="HB:HLp39"/>
  
−
Smithon is a cold, arid world with poor soil.  The [[SLDF]] Corps of Engineers built underground fortresses and armories in Smithon's canyons, and weapons batteries around them for defense.  These later were occupied by the [[Capellan Confederation]], and when the Capellans withdrew from region, the fortresses became subterranean cities and the home of [[House Karosas]]. The population is sustained by agroponic farming, with water supplied by a large water-purification installation at the north ice cap.<ref name=HA:TACp34/>
+
{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
 +
The apocryphal [[BattleTech (Video Game)]] has Smithon as one of the systems of the [[Aurigan Coalition]].
  
−
In [[2870]], House Karosas joined with the noble houses of [[Coromodir]], [[Guldra]], [[Itrom]], and [[Tyrlon]] to create the [[Aurigan Trade Partnership]]. In [[2910]], this transformed to the [[Aurigan Coalition]], with the Karosas family on the [[Founding Council]].<ref name=HA:TACp11>''House Arano (The Aurigan Coalition)'', p. 11</ref>
+
Smithon was formerly a [[Star League]] era armory and fortification, now ruled by [[House Karosas]]. The old [[Capellan Confederation]] fortresses have been converted for use as civilian habitation, and scavengers scour the planet for any remaining League [[LosTech]].

{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
+
The planets first moon '''Anvelt''' is also the home to mining operations<ref name=BTVG>"BattleTech Video Game"</ref>
−
The apocryphal [[BattleTech (Video Game)]] has '''Anvelt''', "The First Moon of Smithon", as home to mining operations.  It was on this moon that mercenaries under orders from [[Kamea Arano]] destroyed the [[Newgrange (Individual Union-class DropShip)]], killing the son of [[Commodore]] [[Samuel Ostergaard]].  During this same battle, the mercenaries captured [[Victoria Espinosa]].<ref name=BTVG>''BattleTech Video Game''</ref>
 
−
 
 
−
Note: in the ''House Arano (The Aurigan Coalition)'' sourcebook, Smithon is explicitly noted as having no moons.<ref name=HA:TACp34/>

<!-- Commented out due to lack of information
