The '''Vinton''' system is the location of a habitable world, '''Vinton III''', and as of [[3085]] was located in the [[Deep Periphery]] region known as the [[Kerensky Cluster]]<ref name=HOK>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 133: Map</ref> of the [[Clan Homeworlds]].

__TOC__

==System Description==
Vinton is located near the [[Barcella]] and [[Strato Domingo]] systems. In relation to the capital of the Clan Homeworlds, [[Strana Mechty]], Arcadia is located at the coordinates -34:134.<ref>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 112: Clan-Space Worlds Table</ref> The Vinton system consists of a G8VI primary star orbited by seven worlds.<ref name=TWoRp237/> The Vinton system was also home to a naval cache housing three [[WarShip]]s belonging to [[Clan Diamond Shark]].<ref name="WoRp130">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 130: "Vengeance on Vinton"</ref>

==System History==
The Vinton system was colonized before [[2821]]. In [[3011]] a comet passed close enough to the Diamond Shark naval cache in the system to damage two of the [[WarShip]]s in the cache significantly enough to prevent them being restored to active service from mothballs. The only WarShip to survive the passing of the comet was a [[Samarkand Block II (WarShip class)|''Samarkand'']]-class carrier that the Diamond Sharks restored to active service during the [[Wars of Reaving]] as the [[Deal Breaker|CDS ''Deal Breaker'']].<ref name="WoRp130"/><ref name=HOKm>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', p. 133: "Pentagon and Kerensky Cluster (2821)"</ref>

Vinton III, more commonly known simply as Vinton, is the third planet in the Vinton system.<ref name=TWoRp237/> Vinton is one of only two planets among the [[Clan Homeworlds]] that is completely self-sufficient.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 26: "Life on the Knife Edge"</ref>

===Planetary History===
In mid-[[3048]], Vinton was invaded by [[Clan Diamond Shark]] as a punitive measure against [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]]. Then [[ilKhan]] [[Leo Showers]] had become incensed by the profits being made by a Diamond Shark merchant caste trading fleet in the Clan Occupation Zones within the [[Inner Sphere]], trading with garrison forces from the various Clans - including Showers' own Clan Smoke Jaguar - and with being politically humiliated by [[saKhan]] [[Barbara Sennet]]. Showers responded by ordering one of the Smoke Jaguar Provisional Garrison Clusters in the Homeworlds to launch a [[Trial of Possession]] for [[Delios]], a Diamond Shark holding. This Trial was easily defeated by the Diamond Shark defending forces - [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Diamond Shark)|Alpha Galaxy]] - who went on to attack Vinton, a Smoke Jaguar world, capturing and holding a number of key industrial sites and disrupting Smoke Jaguar efforts to supply their forces in the Inner Sphere until Alpha Galaxy was eventually forced offworld.<ref name="ICp139">''Invading Clans'', pp. 138–139: "Second Wave: Profit and Peril"</ref>

Vinton was jointly owned by Clan Diamond Shark and Clan Smoke Jaguar until the [[Inner Sphere]]'s [[Trial of Refusal]] on [[Strana Mechty]], and the destruction of Clan Smoke Jaguar. The planet had always been a source of friction between the two Clans and in early [[3060]] the Sharks were preparing for a [[Trial of Possession]]. The attack on [[Huntress]] proved the perfect opportunity for the Sharks who took control of the world exclusively within two weeks of the [[Great Refusal]].<ref>''The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky'', p. 77</ref>

In [[3063]] Vinton was the subject of a [[Dark Caste]] attack that may have been the first sighting of the noted Bandit leader known as [[Russou Howell|The Jaguar]]; the Bandit strike was particularly bold, killing more than a [[Binary]] of Diamond Shark warriors and seizing two recently acquired and pristine ''[[Warhawk]]'' [[OmniMech]]s the Diamond Sharks had recently acquired from [[Clan Wolf]] as well as tons of supplies and parts. The Bandits chose to leave a single warrior alive after the attack to bring the news to the rest of Clan space of the threat ready to prey on the fringes of Clan society; all of the other downed warriors were dragged from their cockpits and executed by the raiders.<ref name="WoRp192">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 192: "'The Jaguar' (Russou Howell)"</ref>

As of [[3066]], Vinton was assessed by [[Inner Sphere]] observers as being the only world in the Clan Homeworlds other than [[York (Clan System)|York]] to be completely self-sustainable.<ref name="WoRp26">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 26: "Life on the Knife Edge"</ref>

====Wars of Reaving====
In [[3071]], Vinton was raided by a substantial [[Bandit Caste]] force led by the former [[Clan Burrock]] warrior [[Commodus Van Houten]]. Having escaped from imprisonment aboard the former [[Star League Defense Force]] ''[[Texas]]''-class battleship ''[[Prinz Eugen]]'' in [[3056]] - the ''Prinz Eugen'' being a floating prison ship in the [[Strana Mechty]] system at the time - Commodus Van Houten built a band of like-minded pirates and outcasts and raided numerous Clan worlds over the following two decades; Vinton was one of four worlds to be struck by Van Houten in 3071 following the eruption of mass chaos in the Clan Homeworlds.<ref name="WoRp61">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 61: "Bandit Caste: Commodus Van Houten"</ref>

In January [[3072]], Vinton was struck again by Bandit Caste raiders; this time, it was one of many worlds to be attacked as a part of the mass [[Society]] uprising against the Clan warrior caste, and as with the attacks on the worlds of [[Arcadia (Clan System)|Arcadia]], [[Grant's Station]], [[Hoard]], [[New Kent]] and [[Tokasha]], the Bandit Caste raid succeeded in destroying key substations on the planet, depriving part of the system of communications and sowing short-term chaos within the region.<ref name="WoRp94">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 94: "Death Rides Forth"</ref> Making matters worse, Vinton then suffered an [[HPG]] failure along with the worlds of [[Brim]], [[Dagda (Clan System)|Dagda]], [[Roche]] and [[Strato Domingo]], severing Vinton from the communications grid.<ref name="WoRp95">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 95: "Sandbagging the Breach"</ref>

By 3072, Clan Diamond Shark had been evacuating its holdings in the Clan Homeworlds as a result of the [[Trial of Reaving|Trials of Reaving]] ordered by [[ilKhan]] [[Brett Andrews]]; one of the last convoys of Diamond Shark ships to leave Vinton consisted of between sixty and seventy-one [[JumpShip]]s plus their assorted [[DropShip]]s and escorted by the ''[[Carrack]]''-class transport [[Star Swimmer|CDS ''Star Swimmer'']] and the ''[[Volga]]''-class transport [[Bold Venture|CDS ''Bold Venture'']]. The convoy from Vinton had made it as far as the [[Salonika]] outpost in the Deep Periphery when the refugees found themselves under attack from Clan Burrock forces, initially consisting of a small squadron of JumpShips led by the ''[[Riga (WarShip class)|Riga]]''-class frigate [[Hetherington|CBS ''Hetherington'']] and then, two weeks later, a second flotilla led by the ''Hetherington'', the ''[[Kimagure]]''-class pursuit cruiser [[Admiral Russell Nga|CBS ''Admiral Russell Nga'']] and the ''[[Mako]]''-class corvette [[Stone Crab|CBS ''Stone Crab'']]. By the end of the battle both Diamond Shark WarShips had been destroyed and all bar thirteen of the JumpShips were captured and moved to the [[Tanis]] system as ''[[isorla]]''.<ref name="WORp102">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 102: "Bearding the Shark"</ref>

In January [[3073]], forces from [[Clan Coyote]] allied with the Society launched an invasion of the system. The system defenses consisted of an [[SDS]] network and the ''Samarkand''-class CDS ''Deal Breaker''. The Coyote forces were escorted by at least four WarShips, the ''[[Cameron (WarShip class)|Cameron]]''-class battlecruiser [[Blood of the Coyote|CCS ''Blood of the Coyote'']], the ''[[Lola III]]''-class destroyers [[Courage (Individual Lola III-class WarShip)|CCS ''Courage'']] and [[Honor of Ages|CCS ''Honor of Ages'']], the ''[[Essex]]''-class destroyer [[Windrunner|CCS ''Windrunner'']] and the ''[[York (WarShip class)|York]]''-class destroyer [[Broken Sea|CCS ''Broken Sea'']]. The ''Deal Breaker'' gutted the ''Honor of Ages'' and the Diamond Shark SDS managed to disable or destroy the ''Broken Sea'' and the ''Courage'', but the ''Deal Breaker'' couldn't stand up to the ''Blood of the Coyote'' and was destroyed, while a network virus transmitted to Vinton disabled the SDS network.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

Vinton was the last Diamond Shark stronghold in the Homeworlds; the last elements of the [[Clan Diamond Shark Touman|Diamond Shark ''touman'']] to be found in the Homeworlds were at Vinton and nominally consisted of the [[11th Strike (Clan Diamond Shark|Eleventh Strike Cluster]]. However, prior to the departure of the last convoy from Vinton, the Diamond Shark [[Loremaster]], [[Semi Kalasa]], authorized the buildup and equipping of additional defending forces on Vinton by allowing those [[Trueborn|trueborns]] who had tested out of the warrior caste the opportunity to retest, and opened the last two warehouse complexes belonging to the merchant caste on the planet to equip those who passed. To retest successfully, an applicant had to defeat a member of the Eleventh in a wrestling match; given the substantial trueborn population on Vinton - which had a population of some seven million people of various castes - more than ten [[Cluster]]s of new forces had been mustered, more than the merchant caste stocks on the planet could equip. The merchant caste responded to the need to equip the newly formed Vinton Defense Clusters by increasing the production of ''[[Grendel]]'', ''[[Mad Cat II]]'' and ''[[Piranha]]'' [[BattleMech]]s from the factories on Vinton, and overall command of the defending forces fell to [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Trevor Rodriguez]].<ref name="WoRp130"/>

The Clan Coyote forces were commanded by [[saKhan]] [[Raven Clearwater]] and consisted of the Coyote [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Coyote)|Delta]]. [[Epsilon Galaxy (Clan Coyote)|Epsilon]] and [[Rho Galaxy (Clan Coyote)|Rho]] Galaxies, accompanied by upwards of three Clusters of Society military forces. The initial Clan Coyote landings secured beachheads on Aquatine Island and near an empty former Star League Defense Force cache designated SLB-28. Galaxy Commander Rodriguez responded immediately by dispatching the [[1st Vinton Defense (Clan Diamond Shark)|First]] and [[4th Vinton Defense (Clan Diamond Shark)|Fourth Vinton Defense Cluster]]s from their base on Ophilia Island to attack the beachhead at Aquatine Island, which was located close to Ophilia Island. The First and Fourth VDCs made the journey between the two islands underwater and engaged the Coyote forces, taking them by surprise and allowing the Attack Squadron from the Fifteenth Strike Cluster to strafe the Coyote DropShips.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

In response to the attack on Aquatine Island, the Coyotes subjected Ophilia Island to orbital bombardment from the ''Blood of the Coyote'', destroying the island and slaughtering the five hundred thousand civilians living on the island. The First and Fourth VDCs were taken completely by surprise by the Coyote's actions and the lack of warning, and lost all unit cohesion; the various warriors of the First and Fourth VDCs were swept up in a vengeful battlefield lust and continued to press the Coyote forces, launching fearless attacks that saw both VDCs destroyed piecemeal, selling themselves dearly in the process. Among the losses taken by the Coyotes at the hands of the outraged Diamond Shark defenders was the [[95th Strike (Clan Coyote)|Ninety-fifth Strike Cluster]], which was destroyed.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

While the battles raged on Aquatine Island, the Coyote forces at SLB-28 entrenched themselves firmly, spreading their forces out while saKhan Clearwater and the task force command staff landed. The Coyotes were able to expand quickly, capturing the refineries nearby and then [[Venice]], a larger Diamond Shark settlement. Under Clearwater's command the Coyotes pressed on for the next week, capturing and securing almost three-quarters of the Askalon continent along with the ''Mad Cat II'' factory located at Pearl City despite several attacks by various VDCs.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

In the face of continuing Coyote expansion and ineffectual VDC attacks, Rodriguez launched a desperate gambit; personally leading a [[Trinary]] of forces through a network of large lava caves that allowed them to move through the heart of the Mako Mountain range, Rodriguez managed to infiltrate his forces through the tunnels and close to SLB-28, where they lay in wait until the 31st of January. On the morning of the 31st a Diamond Shark offensive was launched at Pearl City that saw four VDC BattleMech Clusters and an infantry Cluster dropped from fast-moving DropShips into Pearl City itself. The Diamond Shark forces quickly savaged the [[58th Battle (Clan Coyote)|Fifty-eighth Battle Cluster]] and destroyed a major tank farm, prompting the Coyotes to dispatch the bulk of Epsilon Galaxy to Pearl City.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

As Epsilon moved to engage the Diamond Shark forces at Pearl City, Rodriguez's Trinary blew through the back wall of SLB-28 and launched a devastating surprise attack on the Coyote forces inside the former cache, destroying most of the command and control assets within the Coyote headquarters; all of the Trinary fell in battle, but not before inflicting heavy damage on the headquarters and devastating the [[49th Battle (Clan Coyote)|Forty-ninth Battle Cluster]].<ref name="WoRp130"/>

While the battles raged within SLB-28 and Pearl City a Diamond Shark force consisting of fourteen DropShips -including two [[Inner Sphere]] pattern ''[[Excalibur (DropShip)|Excalibur]]''-class DropShips - and a number of [[small craft]] launched themselves from the Diamond Shark polar base and launched a stunning assault on the ''Blood of the Coyote'' in orbit. The surprise attack inflicted heavy damage on the ''Cameron''-class battlecruiser; while most of the Diamond Shark strike force was destroyed by the ''Blood of the Coyote'' or the ''Windrunner'', which intervened to rescue the larger Coyote WarShip, the ''Blood of the Coyote'' was forced to withdraw from Vinton.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

The success of these three strikes boosted the morale of the defending Diamond Shark forces and encouraged them to make further attacks; throughout February 3073 the Diamond Sharks pushed back against the Coyotes, but couldn't win the battle of attrition. The Coyote campaign pressed forward, and by mid-March all of the major cities on Vinton were under Coyote control; the last Diamond Shark bastion was a deep-water dome located beneath the Razor Sea named Verne, where the surviving elements of the [[2nd Vinton Defense (Clan Diamond Shark)|Second Vinton Defense Cluster]] and a Trinary of [[Undine]]-equipped [[Elemental]]s held out.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

The Coyotes chose to ignore Verne, and instead proceeded to strip Vinton of resources. Clearwater left Vinton at the end of March, accompanied by the ''Blood of the Coyote'' and Epsilon and Rho Galaxies, while resources and materials were being systematically being stripped off the planet. Delta Galaxy remained in place on Vinton until July, overseeing both the removal of resources and the testing of the civilian population; those civilians considered useful were deported offworld, those who resisted were killed, and those deemed worthless were left behind. Delta Galaxy lifted off from Vinton in July, after which the ''Windrunner'' bombarded a number of cities across the planet from orbit, initiating mass fires that swiftly spread across the dry surface of the planet, leaving Vinton burning in her wake.<ref name="WoRp130"/>

The next visitors to Vinton were from [[Clan Blood Spirit]]. The Blood Spirits had made a number of gains in 3073 from other Clans suffering badly from the chaos in the Homeworlds, securing holdings on [[Albion (Clan System)|Albion]] and [[Niles (Clan System)|Niles]] as well as gaining new military forces from the surviving elements of [[Clan Hell's Horses]] and [[Clan Fire Mandrill]] forces on Niles in the process, which were incorporated into the Blood Spirit [[Zeta Galaxy (Clan Blood Spirit)|Zeta Galaxy]] after the Blood Spirits successfully defeated various Coyote Clusters. Khan [[Troy Boques]] dispatched Zeta to Vinton, to see if the Coyote invasion had left anything valuable or useful in the system; when Zeta arrived in October, the Blood Spirits discovered that Vinton had largely been abandoned, but managed to make contact with Verne. The defending forces at Verne - a single [[Nova]] of troops - were still alive, and the Blood Spirits quickly provided assistance and emergency aid to the survivors, while becoming aware of the mass devastation inflicted on the other Diamond Shark holdings. The Blood Spirits then transported the surviving civilian and VDC warriors to Albion, including a Diamond Shark Merchant Factor named Lorenzo.<ref name="WoRp133">''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 133–134: "Rise of the Blood Spirit"</ref>

Over the course of the following months the Diamond Shark survivors from Vinton were transported to the [[Colleen]] system, where the VDC warriors were demobilized and reintegrated into the civilian castes, before being transported on to Albion. Through successful Trialing Lorenzo ultimately obtained control of a ''[[Scout (JumpShip class)|Scout]]''-class JumpShip, the [[Troy (Individual Scout-class JumpShip)|CBS ''Troy'']], along with a single ''[[Condor (DropShip class)|Condor]]''-class DropShip, and led the Diamond Shark survivors on an extended adventure through the Deep Periphery and on to the [[Chainelane Isles]].<ref name="WoRp134">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 134: "Lorenzo's Run"</ref>

Ignoring the devastation inflicted on the Diamond Sharks on Vinton - and their subsequent abandonment by the other Clans - the other Clans voted in support of a proposal by ilKhan Andrews in February [[3075]] to declare [[Clan Diamond Shark]], [[Clan Ghost Bear]], [[Clan Jade Falcon]] and [[Clan Snow Raven]] to be Abjured Clans for their failure to assist in the defeat of the Society.<ref name="WoRp146">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 146: "Reconvening the Council"</ref>

The [[Dark Caste]] subsequently established a holding on Vinton, which was discovered by the [[Clan Star Adder]] Watch in [[3078]]. [[Star Colonel]] [[Tamur Gena]] led an overeager assault on the site and destroyed it without capturing a single bandit alive, leaving the Star Adders with little information from the remains of the camp other than that some of the Dark Caste equipment was of Smoke Jaguar origin. Loremaster [[Fletcher Daniels]] and Merchant Factor Ulysses created a special Watch group tasked with following up this information, which subsequently led to the Star Adders chasing down a notable Dark Caste presence on [[Huntress]].<ref name="WoRp166">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 166: "Clan Star Adder"</ref>
