−	Dustball was originally colonized because geographic surveys indicated the presence of large deposits of gemstones. When the surveys ended up being incorrect, many of the miners left, but a large, wealthy, and cunning family - the [[House Malthus|Malthus family]] - remained on the planet. Willing to work outside of legal bounds, the Malthus family started a series of casinos, nightclubs and hotels around the spaceport. As a result, the planet has the slogan ''"Where the elite meet, greet, and satisfy their most wicked desires''".	+	Dustball was originally colonized because geographic surveys indicated the presence of large deposits of gemstones.

−	There are five domed cities on the planet. Each one specializes in a separate variety of pleasure. The Malthus family has made a great deal of illicit money through their establishments on Dustball, and has been able to protect their investment due to a pervasive and complex campaign of blackmail against many high Lyran Commonwealth officials who have visited Dustball to sample the planet's manifold pleasures. Such abuses had become so pervasive that in [[3005]], [[Archon]] [[Alessandro Steiner]] established legalized and heavily-regulated "pleasure industries" on the model of Dustball on [[Kooken's Pleasure Pit]] in an attempt to break the Malthus family's stranglehold through direct competition. As of [[3025]], it was unclear if it had had any appreciable effect.<ref name=HSp172/>	+	There are five domed cities on the planet. Each one specializes in a separate variety of pleasure.

	The establishment of competing gambling concerns on the planet didn't have any effect on the Malthus family. The arrival of the [[Clans]] however, put a permanent end to the gambling industry on Dustball. Finding itself on the front lines of the Clan front, Dustball was frequently raided by Clan Jade Falcon and [[Clan Steel Viper]].<ref name=HB:HSp85-86/>		The establishment of competing gambling concerns on the planet didn't have any effect on the Malthus family.

When the surveys ended up being incorrect, many of the miners left, but a large, wealthy, and cunning family - the [[House Malthus|Malthus family]] - remained on the planet. Willing to work outside of legal bounds, the Malthus family started a series of casinos, nightclubs and hotels around the spaceport. As a result, the planet has the slogan ''"Where the elite meet, greet, and satisfy their most wicked desires''". There are five domed cities on the planet. Each one specializes in a separate variety of pleasure. The Malthus family has made a great deal of illicit money through their establishments on Dustball, and has been able to protect their investment due to a pervasive and complex campaign of blackmail against many high Lyran Commonwealth officials who have visited Dustball to sample the planet's manifold pleasures. Such abuses had become so pervasive that in [[3005]], [[Archon]] [[Alessandro Steiner]] established legalized and heavily-regulated "pleasure industries" on the model of Dustball on [[Kooken's Pleasure Pit]] in an attempt to break the Malthus family's stranglehold through direct competition. As of [[3025]], it was unclear if it had had any appreciable effect.<ref name=HSp172/> The establishment of competing gambling concerns on the planet didn't have any effect on the Malthus family. The arrival of the [[Clans]] however, put a permanent end to the gambling industry on Dustball. Finding itself on the front lines of the Clan front, Dustball was frequently raided by Clan Jade Falcon and [[Clan Steel Viper]].<ref name=HB:HSp85-86/> ===Military Deployment=== ====3054==== * [[Gray Death Legion]]<ref>''Objective Raids'', p. 54, "Note of Unit"</ref> * [[Eleventh Avalon Hussars]] [[RCT]]<ref name="ORp22">''Objective Raids'', p. 22, "FedCom Deployment Table"</ref> ====3079==== * [[6th Wolf Guards (Clan Wolf-in-Exile)|Sixth Wolf Guards]]<ref>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 22, "Clan Wolf-in-Exile Deployment Status"</ref> ====3085==== * [[Greenburg's Godzillas]] (2 [[Battalion]]s)<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 160, "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> * Sixth Wolf Guards<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 129, "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> ====3145==== * [[8th Provisional Garrison Cluster (Clan Jade Falcon)|Eighth Provisional Garrison Cluster]]<ref name=FM:3145p169>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 169, "Clan Force Deployments - Clan Jade Falcon"</ref> ===Geography=== ===Planetary Locations=== {{scrollbox| * Kanda: a domed city<ref name=WW/> * New Monaco: a domed city<ref name=1SS-14>''1st Sommerset Strikers'', p. 14 "Episode 2: Well Bargained and Done"</ref> * Tristin:<ref name=WW/> }} ===Industrial Centers=== * [[Malthus Gambling Unlimited]]<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', p. 144, "Other Major Commonwealth Industries"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information == Image gallery == --> ==Nearby Systems== <!-- NOTE: This table is automatically generated by BattleTechWiki:Project_Planets/Mapping, and any edits to this section may be overwritten at any time by a bot --> {|class="wikitable nearby-systems" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 1px solid black;" ! colspan="8" | Closest 28 systems (28 within 60 light-years)<br>Distance in light years, closest systems first: |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Blair Atholl]] | class="lessthan30" | 7.5 | class="lessthan30" | [[Koniz]] | class="lessthan30" | 13.6 | class="lessthan30" | [[Deweidewd]] | class="lessthan30" | 17.3 | class="lessthan30" | [[A Place]] | class="lessthan30" | 20.2 |- | class="lessthan30" | [[Graceland]] | class="lessthan30" | 20.5 | class="lessthan30" | [[Ballynure]] | class="lessthan30" | 29.9 | class="over30" | [[Graus]] | class="over30" | 31.3 | class="over30" | [[Benfled]] | class="over30" | 32.0 |- | class="over30" | [[Bountiful Harvest]] | class="over30" | 33.2 | class="over30" | [[Sudeten]] | class="over30" | 33.3 | class="over30" | [[Pandora]] | class="over30" | 37.2 | class="over30" | [[Antares]] | class="over30" | 37.6 |- | class="over30" | [[New Exford]] | class="over30" | 40.1 | class="over30" | [[Morges]] | class="over30" | 40.7 | class="over30" | [[Kandersteg]] | class="over30" | 41.6 | class="over30" | [[Stonarboi]] | class="over30" | 43.9 |- | class="over30" | [[Dompaire]] | class="over30" | 45.1 | class="over30" | [[Montmarault]] | class="over30" | 45.4 | class="over30" | [[Crimond]] | class="over30" | 50.6 | class="over30" | [[Colmar]] | class="over30" | 50.6 |- | class="over30" | [[Babaeski]] | class="over30" | 53.2 | class="over30" | [[Esteros]] | class="over30" | 53.2 | class="over30" | [[La Grave]] | class="over30" | 56.6 | class="over30" | [[Cusset]] | class="over30" | 57.8 |- | class="over30" | [[Baker 3]] | class="over30" | 57.9 | class="over30" | [[Summit]] | class="over30" | 57.9 | class="over30" | [[Yeguas]] | class="over30" | 58.3 | class="over30" | [[Biota]] | class="over30" | 60.0 |- |} == References == <references/> == Bibliography == * ''[[1st Somerset Strikers (sourcebook)]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 2750]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3052]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3062]]'' * ''[[Era Report: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3085]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3145]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: SLDF]]'' * ''[[Field Report 2765: Lyran Commonwealth]]'' * ''[[Field Report 2765: Periphery]]'' * ''[[Field Report: LAAF]]'' * ''[[Field Report: Clans]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Steiner]]'' * ''[[Handbook: Major Periphery States]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 1]]'' * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2]]'' * ''[[Historical: Reunification War]]'' * ''[[Historical: War of 3039]]'' * ''[[House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)]]'' * ''[[Inner Sphere (sourcebook)]]'' * ''[[Jihad: Final Reckoning]]'' * ''[[Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents]]'' * ''[http://home.ifi.uio.no/~oysteint/btech/maps/IS_3130.pdf Map of the Inner Sphere 3130]'' * ''[[Objective Raids]]'' * ''[[Waylon's War]]'' (short story) [[Category:Systems|Dustball]] [[Category: Arc Royal Defense Cordon Planets]] [[Category: Clan Jade Falcon Planets]] [[Category: Federated Commonwealth Planets]] [[Category: Lyran Commonwealth Planets]]
