Planetary Info
Grand Base's main continent is covered in rolling hills and mountains. The main continent has a large coastal mountain range along its east edge. There are three other continents on the world, all of them easily reached by atmospheric transport craft. More importantly the huge freshwater seas are home to many imported Terran fish as well as reptiles.[2] The Grand Base Giant Crocodile is the undisputed master of the 6,000 km Parung River.[35]
Planetary History
Succession Wars
Fourth Succession War
Grand Base was the personal holding of Colonel Pavel Ridzik. It served as a large military training, staging, and repair facility. Grand Base also boasted the second-largest BattleMech production facility in the Capellan Confederation. Only Tikonov's vast factories are larger.[1]
In 3030, Grand Base became a battlefield. Warrior House Fujita drove the attacking Andurien forces off world.[36] The defeat of the 6th Defenders of Andurien by the Warrior House, militia regiments, and Death Commando trainees, provided a huge morale boost to the Confederation's armed forces. Heavy investment by the Capellan Confederation through the 3030's insured that the planet's economy had recovered by 3040.[2]
