−	On 7 July [[3055]], the DCMS and [[Explorer Corps (ComStar)|Explorer Corps]] staged a daring [[Battle of Luzerne (3050)|raid]] against the Smoke Jaguar command post on Luzerne. This raid saw the first combat for the new ''[[Okinawa (DropShip class)|Okinawa]]''-class DropShip. The DCS ''[[Ashi-oto]]'' took heavy damage during the rear-guard action and lost more than half its fighter complement, but it managed to inflict enough damage on the ''[[Congress]]''-class CSJ [[Hunters' Pride (Individual Congress-class WarShip)|''Hunters' Pride'']] that it was forced to withdraw.

Combined with the world's variety of terrain and pleasant climate, Luzerne became a favored spot for those in the Draconis Combine looking to escape the ravages of warfare that have plagued the [[Inner Sphere]] for millennia.<ref name=HTPL-5>''Historical Turning Points: Luzerne'', p. 5: "Luzerne"</ref> Luzerne's largest settlement in terms of footprint rather than population is New Old Idaho. A vast expanse of ferrocrete and prefabricated warehouses, New Old Idaho is the planet's primary import/export portal and commercial spaceport.<ref name=HTPL-5/> ===Planetary History=== ====Third Succession War==== Prior to the [[Clan Invasion]], the most notable event in the planet's history was the '''Topeka Mining Strike''' in [[2876]] when several miners unions protested their displacement by thousands of slave labor miners originally imported by House Kurita to construct New Old Idaho after an earthquake destroyed Luzerne's original spaceport. When the local mining consortium were bankrupted as their former offworld customers sourced their needs from the cheaper slave industries, union members blockaded slave quarries and triggered mass protests. Ultimately the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] broke the strike in [[2879]] and House Kurita quietly removed the imported labor, allowing the mining consortiums to take over the now abandoned facilities, which expanded the system's economic reach.<ref name=HTPL-5/> ====Operation REVIVAL==== Targeted as part of [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]]'s fourth invasion wave in August [[3050]], Luzerne was defended by survivors of the [[Ninth Alshain Regulars]] who'd escaped [[Clan Ghost Bear]]'s attack on [[Jarett]]. Having brutally learned Clan tactics, the Ninth prepared and lured the [[4th Jaguar Dragoons (Clan Smoke Jaguar)|Fourth Jaguar Dragoons]]' First and Second [[Trinary|Trinaries]] Battle into well-orchestrated crossfire at Topeka Bay. The Jaguars were able to force their way out of the firing zone and circle behind the Ninth, which forced the Regulars to flee north while taking heavy casualties. Retreating towards their DropShips, the DCMS troops reached Lawrence Pass when the Dragoons appeared on the walls above, and the Ninth Alshain Regulars were virtually destroyed under the heavy fire from the Jaguars.<ref name=IC-66>''Invading Clans'', p. 66: "Fourth Wave (August-October 3050) - Luzerne (DC)"</ref> ====After Operation REVIVAL==== While seemingly placid and unassuming for most of its existence, the Jaguar occupation finally ignited patriotic passions, resulting in a significant increase in [[Internal Security Force]] assets on-world.<ref name=HTPL-5/> On 7 July [[3055]], the DCMS and [[Explorer Corps (ComStar)|Explorer Corps]] staged a daring [[Battle of Luzerne (3050)|raid]] against the Smoke Jaguar command post on Luzerne.

The Luzerne's planetary capital of Topeka Bay is located in the only deep water bay on the Topeka continent's coastline. Though listed as the capital, in terms of population Topeka Bay is overshadowed by the city of Homer located in the middle of the Seattle Mountains in the center of Topeka. Homer's outward expansion limited by the surrounding mountain chain, Homer's citizenry expanded downward instead, crafting massive caverns and byways through the softer limestone of the mountains. Located nearby is Lawrence Pass, the only viable means of traversing the mountains to the rest of the continent.<ref name=HTPL-5/> ===Planetary Locations=== * Topeka Bay: the planetary capital city<ref name=HTPL-5/> ===Companies and Industries=== * [[Tanadi Computers]]<ref name=JC:IP2p28>''Jihad Conspiracies: Interstellar Players 2'', p. 28: "Uncle Chandy - [Tanadi Computers]"</ref> <!-- temporarily hidden due to proximity to larger image ===Image gallery=== <gallery> Luzerne Planetary Map.png|Planetary Map of Luzerne </gallery> --> ==Map Gallery== <div class="system-map-gallery"></div> ==Nearby Systems== <!-- NOTE: This table is automatically generated by BattleTechWiki:Project_Planets/Mapping, and any edits to this section may be overwritten at any time by a bot --> {|class="wikitable nearby-systems" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" ! colspan="8" | Closest 28 systems (26 within 60 light-years)<br>Distance in light years, closest systems first: |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Schuyler]] | class="lessthan30" | 15.4 | class="lessthan30" | [[Byesville]] | class="lessthan30" | 18.1 | class="lessthan30" | [[Savinsville]] | class="lessthan30" | 18.1 | class="lessthan30" | [[Albiero]] | class="lessthan30" | 26.6 |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Wolcott]] | class="lessthan30" | 27.0 | class="lessthan30" | [[Polcenigo]] | class="lessthan30" | 27.6 | class="over30" | [[Courchevel]] | class="over30" | 30.0 | class="over30" | [[Labrea]] | class="over30" | 30.1 |- | class="over30" | [[Garstedt]] | class="over30" | 30.3 | class="over30" | [[Bilma]] | class="over30" | 33.4 | class="over30" | [[Nykvarn]] | class="over30" | 36.9 | class="over30" | [[Jezersko]] | class="over30" | 40.5 |- | class="over30" | [[Itabaiana]] | class="over30" | 44.3 | class="over30" | [[Hanover]] | class="over30" | 44.7 | class="over30" | [[Marshdale]] | class="over30" | 44.7 | class="over30" | [[Outer Volta]] | class="over30" | 45.9 |- | class="over30" | [[Casere]] | class="over30" | 47.2 | class="over30" | [[Ferranil]] | class="over30" | 48.9 | class="over30" | [[Soverzene]] | class="over30" | 50.8 | class="over30" | [[Brocchi's Cluster]] | class="over30" | 51.0 |- | class="over30" | [[Bangor]] | class="over30" | 52.3 | class="over30" | [[Turtle Bay]] | class="over30" | 56.8 | class="over30" | [[Last Frontier]] | class="over30" | 57.1 | class="over30" | [[Kiruna]] | class="over30" | 59.6 |- | class="over30" | [[Jeronimo]] | class="over30" | 59.7 | class="over30" | [[Almunge]] | class="over30" | 59.9 | class="over60" | [[Tuat]] | class="over60" | 61.9 | class="over60" | [[Juazeiro]] | class="over60" | 63.1 |- |} ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== {{div col|colwidth=25em}} * ''[[The Dragon Roars]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 2750]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3052]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3062]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3085]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: ComStar]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: SLDF]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Updates]]'' * ''[[Field Report: DCMS]]'' * ''[[Field Report 2765: DCMS]]'' * ''[[First Succession War (sourcebook)|First Succession War]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Kurita]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2]]'' * ''[[Historical: Reunification War]]'' * ''[[Historical: War of 3039]]'' * ''[[Historical Turning Points: Luzerne]]'' * ''[[House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)]]'' * ''[[Jihad: Final Reckoning]]'' * ''[[Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents]]'' * ''[[Second Succession War (sourcebook)|Second Succession War]]'' {{div col end}} [[Category:Systems|Luzerne]] [[Category:Clan Smoke Jaguar Systems]] [[Category:Draconis Combine Systems]]
