The Grendelsbane System was an uninhabited star system[1].

Astrography[]

Located on the southeastern flank of the Manticoran Alliance defense perimeter, the system lay between the Star Kingdom of Manticore, the Republic of Haven and the Republic of Erewhon. (HH3)

History[]

Sometime before 1905 PD, a large Royal Manticoran Navy base, Grendelsbane Station, was established in the system and served as a satellite construction yard for the RMN. (HH3)

In 1919 PD, the system was attacked by a task force of the Republic of Haven Navy led by Admiral Jacques Griffith in the Battle of Grendelsbane. Part of Operation Thunderbolt, the attack led to the destruction of Grendelsbane Station, the withdraw of the RMN picket, and the capture of 42,000 shipyard workers by the RHN[2]. (HH10)
