Overview
New Ganymede is a barren desert world with little surface water and an unpleasant atmosphere. The planet is at the edge of the Hyades Cluster. The high winds and frequent dust storms often obscure the sky for days at a time, but the many and plentiful radioactive surface ore deposits make New Ganymede one of the most important mining worlds within the Taurian Concordat. The First Battalion of the Pleiades Hussars is stationed here to protect both the miners and the valuable extractors. New Ganymede is also home to the Conordat's desert warfare training facility in the northern polar regions.<ref>Battletech: The Periphery 1629, pp.85 Cite error: The opening <ref>
