The Volders system was home to at least one habitable world or construct and as at 3145 was located in the Clan Hell's Horses Occupation Zone.[1][2]

System Description

The Volders system is located near the Kobe and Weingarten systems.[1][2]

System History

The Volders system was settled at some point during or shortly after the First Exodus from Terra and was a member of the Tamar Pact prior to the formation of the Lyran Commonwealth during the mid-twenty-fourth century.[3]

Political Affiliation

Planetary History

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.[28]
