X:Y Coordinates[e]

The HD-276914 system was home to at least one inhabitable planet and is located between Nowhere and HD-417328 in the coreward Periphery just beyond the edge of the Draconis Combine.[1]

System Description[edit]

Featured only in the MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries video game, the HD-276914 system is considered apocryphal.

Planetary History[edit]

In 2986 or early the following year, Nikolai Mason stopped in HD-276914 just before his infiltration of Kurita space.[2]

In the first part of the thirty-first century, before the founding of the Free Rasalhague Republic in 3034,[3] ComStar built a stellar research facility in the system. They used a vast array of radio telescopes to help fill in a missing section of a Star League-era star map and to aid the Explorer Corps in searching for more lost Star League facilities. More significantly, they had been tracking the movement of people and ships through that region of space, especially those headed into the Inner Sphere from somewhere out in the uncharted Periphery.[1]

Nik's Cavaliers and Interstellar Expeditions captured the research facility while pursuing related interests. Though much of the data was destroyed beforehand, enough was recovered to shed light on ComStar's intentions in the region.[1]

Geography[edit]

The planet is depicted as an autumn forest biome with unlimited visibility.[1]
