	Rhonda conducted interviews with the officers that had been captured, and discovered that the command base the First Volders Regiment had been operating from had been established just three months before, after the garrison had accidentally uncovered some old SLDF ruins. Rhonda ordered a full search of the area to be conducted, leading to the discovery of several more tunnels leading into nearby hillsides, all of which were half-buried and at risk of full collapse. Despite the risks posed, Rhonda had her troops investigate the tunnels, uncovering a cache of [[Star League]] equipment concealed less than a kilometer from where her forces had battled the First's. The cache contained supplies, ammunition and more than three dozen assorted Star League vehicles and 'Mechs, all of which Rhonda had removed in secret and transported back to the Irregulars' base on [[Clinton]] via the Irregulars' [[DropShip]]s.<ref name="RIp7"/>		Rhonda conducted interviews with the officers that had been captured, and discovered that the command base the First Volders Regiment had been operating from had been established just three months before, after the garrison had accidentally uncovered some old SLDF ruins.

Despite Hopkins being reduced to ruins by the time of the Fourth Succession War, it was enough to convince Snord to push for the Irregulars to be included in the planned invasion.<ref name="RIp7"/> The initial deployment to Volders went well;<ref name="RIp7"/> the Irregulars were actively involved in the campaign under the overall command of [[Lieutenant-General]] Gerould of the Second Narhal's Raiders.<ref name="RIp34">''Rhonda's Irregulars'', p. 34-35, "Tanks A Lot"</ref> The heavy armor forces of Narhal's Raiders making advances near the ruins of Hopkins,<ref name="RIp7"/> whilst the Irregulars secured the left flank of Hopkins, battling the Third Volders Armored Assault Company.<ref name="RIp34"/> The mercenaries were successfully prosecuting the campaign to secure Hopkins until two [[companies]] of light [['Mech]]s from the planetary garrison managed to tie down the armored vehicles, encircling the tanks within the remains of the city. [[Rhonda Snord]] led her command company into the ruins, masking their presence from enemy sensor equipment using the mounds of debris distributed throughout the former city, and proceeded to launch a series of fast, fatal ambushes that allowed her 'Mechs and the Narhal Raiders' armor to rout the lighter Combine forces.<ref name="RIp7"/> The rout of the garrison 'Mechs left Rhonda Snord in de facto control of the ruins of Hopkins, and the Irregulars began searching for the data chips believed to be stashed there; after four days of searching, nothing of any significance had been found, and the Narhal Raiders' forces were encountering increasingly heavy resistance to the north. Reluctantly, Rhonda Snord led her forces north in a long-range probe that was planned to eventually form a parallel line of adance to that taken by the Raiders, but while the Irregulars were still some forty kilometers south of the Raiders forces the Irregulars discovered a small command bunker. The bunker was defended by a small number of troops, including a handful of 'Mechs, and Rhonda swiftly launched an attack with both of her 'Mech companies. What Rhonda hadn't discovered was that the command bunker was actually the nerve center for the primary planetary defenders, the [[First Volders Regiment]], and as the Irregulars attacked, several [[lance]]s of heavy 'Mechs emerged from hidden tunnels located around the base.<ref name="RIp7"/> With her forces encircled, Rhonda's supporting infantry - trained in anti-'Mech tactics - had joined the battle, and the Irregulars swiftly defeated the First Volders 'Mechs,<ref name="RIp7"/> with the Irregulars' Second and Third Companies managing to capture ''[[Tai-sho (rank)|Tai-sho]]'' Becker during the battle with the First Volder's Regimental Command Company, securing Becker as he attempted to flee in his [[Mobile HQ]].<ref name="RIp36">''Rhonda's Irregulars'', p. 36-37, "Snakes In The Grass"</ref> Capturing the First's Commanding Officer and the majority of his headquarters staff was enough to break the First's forces, and four days later Volders officially surrendered to the Lyran forces, ceding the planet to Lyran control.<ref name="RIp7"/> Rhonda conducted interviews with the officers that had been captured, and discovered that the command base the First Volders Regiment had been operating from had been established just three months before, after the garrison had accidentally uncovered some old SLDF ruins. Rhonda ordered a full search of the area to be conducted, leading to the discovery of several more tunnels leading into nearby hillsides, all of which were half-buried and at risk of full collapse. Despite the risks posed, Rhonda had her troops investigate the tunnels, uncovering a cache of [[Star League]] equipment concealed less than a kilometer from where her forces had battled the First's. The cache contained supplies, ammunition and more than three dozen assorted Star League vehicles and 'Mechs, all of which Rhonda had removed in secret and transported back to the Irregulars' base on [[Clinton]] via the Irregulars' [[DropShip]]s.<ref name="RIp7"/> === Clan Invasion === During [[Operation REVIVAL]] Volders was conquered by [[Clan Wolf]] in November [[3051]] without the invaders even having to fire a shot. As the planet had long served as a type of religious retreat, it's government had consciously avoided forming any sort of protective militia. Thus [[Khan]] [[Natasha Kerensky]] ordered [[Star Commodore]] Nihsen of the Bravo Naval Reserve [[Star]] to the system, along with several [[JumpShips]] loaded with empty [[DropShips]]. As the DropShips made their way to the planet, Star Commodore Nihsen began talks with the planetary government and recommended that they surrender lest the invaders bring the horror of war to their planet. Sufficiently cowed by the threat the DropShips represented, the government caved in and finalized the terms of their surrender upon the arrival of the vessels.<ref>''Wolf Clan Sourcebook'', p. 65</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information == Political Affiliation == == Planetary Rulers == --> == Military Deployment == === 3025 === * [[Lone Star Regiment]]<ref name=HK134>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 134, "Unit Deployment Table"</ref> === 3028 === * [[First Volders Regiment]]<ref name="RIp7"/> === 3085 === * [[6th Wolf Cavalry (Clan Wolf)|Sixth Wolf Cavalry Cluster]]<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 126, "Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> === 3145 === * [[3rd Horde (Clan Hell's Horses)|Third Horde Cluster]]<ref name=FM:3145p167>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 167, "Clan Force Deployments - Clan Hell's Horses"</ref> <!-- Commented out due to lack of information == Geography == == Planetary Locations == == Industrial Centers == == 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;" !
