==Planetary Overview==

==Planetary Info==
 
Wernke has three major continents, named Crimeia, Jal and Vesper, and at least one smaller continent, the island of Tonkya. Wernke is an agricultural world, supplying other worlds throughout the rimward region of the [[Capellan March]] with food. Crimeia is the location of Hamish, the largest city on Wernke and the planetary capital; located near Hamish is the Colonel Jamison Hasek Spaceport, linked to Hamish by maglev lines and highways. The three major continents are dominated by farming and ranching, but Tonkya is a mountainous island with no arable land or permanent settlements.<ref name=HBD91/>

This article is undergoing revision as part of Project: Planets, a collaborative effort to improve BattleTechWiki's coverage of planets and systems. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can add your name to the list of volunteers.

This article has completed Phase 3 of the Overhaul effort.

System History

Despite the planet Wernke having been settled first and having the far greater population, Wernke's importance relative to it's moon, Talon, caused some confusion amidst cartographers and other groups outside the Federated Suns, leading to the system sometimes being marked as the Talon system rather than the Wernke system.[1]

Planetary Info

Wernke has three major continents, named Crimeia, Jal and Vesper, and at least one smaller continent, the island of Tonkya. Wernke is an agricultural world, supplying other worlds throughout the rimward region of the Capellan March with food. Crimeia is the location of Hamish, the largest city on Wernke and the planetary capital; located near Hamish is the Colonel Jamison Hasek Spaceport, linked to Hamish by maglev lines and highways. The three major continents are dominated by farming and ranching, but Tonkya is a mountainous island with no arable land or permanent settlements.[1]

Planetary History

Early History

By 2305, Wernke was considered to be a client state of the Capellan Hegemony, but in a sign of events to come the Capellan interests on Wernke were already being contested diplomatically by various mercantile interests backed by the Davion family. This highlighted the biggest internal problem suffered by the Capellan Hegemony - just how far-flung the borders of the Hegemony were, outside of the Hegemony core systems.[2]

The Jihad

By the late thirty-first century the island of Tonkya was shrouded in mystery; publicly, it was the site of Kallon Industries mining operations, but the entire continent had been placed off-limits, including a 100 kilometer buffer zone around the continent. Despite this, Tonkya bustled with DropShip activity going to and from Tonkya, AFFS Fort Samson Wood, the Kallon HQ spaceport at Hamish and Talon, with arrivals and departures occurring at any time of the day or night. The remainder of Wernke remained largely undeveloped in manufacturing terms, with those factories on the planet directly involved in supporting the Kallon facilities on Talon. The Colonel Jamison Hasek Spaceport handled the majority of the world's trade, with the spaceport subject to nearly constant traffic all year round.[1]

Planetary overview

Wernke lacks arable lands and potable water, but the barren and craggy surface of the moon contains significant deposits of various rare metals.[1]

Planetary History

Succession Wars

While opinion is divided on whether Talon is Wernke's moon or Wernke's smaller sister, Talon's importance to the Federated Suns was indisputable for much of its history. The terrain on Wernke is similar to that found on the industrial world of Hesperus II in the Lyran Commonwealth, and as a result Talon was chosen to be the location of the largest and most prestigious manufacturing facility owned by Kallon Weapon Industries anywhere in the Inner Sphere, located deep in the Kulmen Mountains. Due to the arid nature of Talon, food for the population had to be imported from Wernke, and the population was limited to employees and family of the Kallon factory and various mining concerns.[1]

Due to the importance of the Kallon Industries plant and its contribution to the AFFS Talon was attacked numerous times during the Succession Wars by both the Capellan Confederation and the Taurian Concordat.[1]

FedCom Civil War

During the FedCom Civil war two RCTs squared off against each other over control of Talon; the Twenty-Second Avalon Hussars secured the Kallon plants and held them in the face of repeated attacks from the Seventh FedCom, proving the strength of the defenses in place yet again.[1]

The Jihad

The Kallon Industries plant was targeted specifically by the Word of Blake during the Jihad; the Blakists completely destroyed the plant in 3069.[31]
