==Known Bases==
* [[Antares]] base (unnamed). SLDF replenishment and resupply base in Lyran space. When [[Operation REVIVAL]] was launched in 3050, all information about this base had been lost to Inner Sphere. A small town, Alba, was built over the base. After conquering the planet, [[Clan Jade Falcon]] unearthed the huge base beneath the town, full of supplies.<ref name>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 40</ref>

* Fortress Dieron: [[Dieron]] military base, closed after the Exodus, still intact after the Jihad.

* [[Dixie]] Castle Brian: discovered by treasure hunters in 3025 which incited an attack by Free Worlds League forces. However, almost all contents turned out to have decayed into uselessness. Some vintage SLDF laser pistol, and two barely salvageable BattleMechs were among the items retrieved.<ref>''The Heart of Dixie'' in ''First Strike'', p. 137</ref>

*[[Hyner]] base, original name unknown: a military base deep inside Combine space. Probably looted by the Exodus fleet, in the [[thirty-first century]] it was totally empty, all surface buildings destroyed or buried. Only some underground tunnels were preserved.

* [[Helm]] Nagayan Mountain Facility: Naval base grounded, with enough BattleMechs to form several regiments, lots of supplies and the [[Helm Memory Core]].
