The '''Badlands''' system was home to at least one habitable world and as of [[2767]] was located in the [[Badlands Cluster]] within the [[Dumassass Union]] of the [[Taurian Concordat]].<ref name="H:LoTv1p96"/>

__TOC__

== System Description ==
Located within the [[Badlands Cluster]] - which later became known as [[Pirates Haven]] - Badlands is located close to [[Lorkdal]] and [[Klenkar]].<ref name="H:MPSp121"/><ref name="ER:2750p37"/>

== System History ==
The Badlands system had been colonized by the end of the [[Age of War]].<ref name="H:MPSp121"/> [[Inner Sphere]] nations stopped recording Badlands on maps at some point during the [[Second Succession War]],<ref name="SSWp18"/><ref name="SSWp78"/> indicating that the system had been abandoned, depopulated, or rendered too insignificant to merit further recording.

== Planetary History ==
The [[Star League Defense Force]] [[3rd Royal Brigade (SLDF)|Third Royal Brigade]] - a part of the [[1st Royal Division|First Royal Division]] within [[I Corps (Star League)|I Corps]] - was stationed on Badlands in late [[2597]], as part of the [[SLDF]]'s occupation of the spinward regions of the Taurian Concordat. One of the units within the Third Royal Brigade was the [[Forty-third Royal Light Horse Regiment]], a regiment notable for having been home to [[Nicholas Cameron]], the only surviving son of [[First Lord]] [[Ian Cameron]]. Nicholas had served with the Forty-third in the early years of the [[Reunification War]], seeing combat on [[Wrentham]] and in the [[Pleiades Cluster]], returning to the Forty-third on promotion after a tour in the headquarters of I Corps, serving first as a [[company]] commander and then as a [[battalion]] commander. Nicholas was posted out of the Forty-third in June [[2583]], but in November [[2599]], he was promoted to [[Lieutenant General]] and posted back to the First Royal Division as assistant [[division]] commander. Nicholas was visiting the Third Royal Brigade on Badlands as part of a routine visit over the Christmas period of 2599, observing the Third as they attempted to subdue a determined rebel band; while observing the Third conducting combat operations Nicholas twice ended up being injured, once in a battle on the 4th of January by shrapnel that penetrated his [['Mech]] cockpit, and then again more seriously on the 7th of January when his ''[[Rifleman]]'' stumbled into an ambush. Nicholas was rescued from the latter engagement by his former company from the Forty-third, but not before his ''Rifleman'' had been ruined and he had taken grave injuries - including the loss of his right arm. The battles on Badlands would be Nicholas' last combat actions as a member of the SLDF, as he was ordered to return to [[Terra]] to recuperate, and retired from the SLDF on the 1st of June [[2600]].<ref name="H:RWp164"/>
