System Description
The co-ordinates for Albion in relation to Strana Mechty are -92: 26.[2]
System History
The Albion system was colonized as a part of the efforts made by the Star League-in-Exile to allow the population of the Pentagon Worlds to spread out into the newly-discovered Kerensky Cluster.[3]
Albion II
Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Albion II is the second planet in the Albion system.[1]
Planetary History
Albion was colonized before the beginning of Operation: KLONDIKE in 2821.[4] Several Clans had early colonies on Albion, including Clan Blood Spirit. As internecine Clan combat began in earnest, especially following the Trial of Annihilation of the Not-Named Clan and leading to the death of Nicholas Kerensky, Clan Blood Spirit became targeted beyond its ability to endure. The Blood Spirits lost their Albion possessions before 2835.[5]
In 2912, Clan Coyote's Omicron Galaxy, under Galaxy Commander David Christofferson, would win a great victory against Clan Smoke Jaguar's enclave on Albion after the Jaguar citizens revolted against the warrior caste on many of their worlds.[6][7]

Notes
- According to a blog posting by author Blaine Lee Pardoe, back when he created the first map of Clan space (for the 1991 Wolf Clan Sourcebook) he named the Albion system after a small town in Michigan.
- The first printing of Field Manual: Updates listed Albion as being 100% controlled by Clan Snow Raven.[16] This proved to be errant, now listed on canon BattleTech website as planet being complete control of Clan Star Adder. [17]
