Coils of the Adder: Home of Clan Star Adder

[Sjhernan3060]

The Adders ‘leading’ a ‘united’ front of Clan forces in the Invasion would have done tremendous damage. I agree with Zell’s assessment with only one thing not considered: the Homeworlds.

Had 80% of the Clan’s Toumans been sent off into the Inner Sphere the Wars of Reaving would have happened much sooner. I’d imagine the Scientist Caste revolting, the Burrock treachery and Bandit Caste upraising, and evening new Clans rising up to lay claim to Clan Homeworlds while the major forces were conquering the Inner Sphere. So by 3055 they’re at Terra’s doorstep but what is behind them? Do the even care anymore what’s behind them or do they all pull a Ghost Bear Dominion?

I gotta disagree so much of the WOR came from the festering feeling of frustration and denied opportunities that the failure of InVasion

Interesting questions for an AU honestly.

Did burrock revolt result in those bloodlines being reaved?

I think some of the older, minor bloodlines were kept. I'll have to double check the books to be sure.

I know alot * was happening then but I would think that would warrant big time crack down

[rebs]

I think the crackdown came in the way they educate their sibkos.  The Wars of Reaving list indicates that the the Adders kept most of their prominent Burrock bloodlines.  The Adders are also keeping most of the prominent exclusive Steel Viper lines too.

Education will be the key.  "We are all Star Adders, quaif?"  No need to even mention other Clans by name.

Did the adders or cobras control Tanis post WOR?

[rebs]

I think the Tanis system was rendered uninhabitable by the fighting on the surface, and actions from orbit.

[Deadborder]

Tanis was depopulated, but not necessarily rendered uninhabitable. Regardless, who controls it is a moot point

[Gaiiten]

So far many of the Homeworlds which are not listed as being occupied by the Clans anymore might get resettled.

It really varies world by world. For example, York is a complete write-off.

[Wotan]

While noone will ever settle on York the planet itself should be very interesting for salvage teams.

[Gaiiten]

The worlds listed a being untenable and abandoned are:

Albion
Atreus
Circe
Colleen
Delios
Eden
Ironhold
Lum
Marshall
New Kent
Paxon
Priori
Shadow
Tanis
Tranquil
Vinton
York

Some worlds as to New Kent, Vinton and York are described as being radically damaged by military action.
Others are described as losing their population due the WoR.
But others simply appear as being abandoned (e.g. Ironhold, Paxon).

I think there could be most of the planets resettled or at least the raw materials still there could be used.

[Wotan]

Many homeworlds were described as scarce and only marginaly habitable. Living was harsh. So there should be a reason to settle there.
In the past it was maybe a run for rare raw materials. Or maybe strategic value, trade routes etc.

With a decimated population and miliary there isn't a need for that much raw materials or the needed material should be available easier. Worst case you need a small mining colony, but no real population.

[Gaiiten]

Further, the Home Clans could use Robotic Technologies (mining, production) for using these resources.
