Description:

The planet Talon is a major world, but one not listed on most star maps. As the smaller sister and satellite of Wernke, many simply dismissed Talon as another two-bit rocky world. Talon is far more, however, than anyone would imagine: Kallon Weapons Industries' home is here. Despite Talon's lack of natural food sources, Kallon felt the planet's excellent rare metal deposits justified them building on the mountainous world. Wernke in fact supplies the food and water needs of Talon.

Kallon has been producing Star League era quality 'Mechs since it went online during the Star League's glory days. No one knows how or why Kallon's plants were still producing units of that quality, even during the three centuries of succession wars. So far, Talon's security has not been breached, protected by layers of corporate, AFFS and DMI security.

Wernke is an important agricultural world in the New Syrtis PDZ. Both Talon and Wernke have vested interests in one another. Kallon Industries supplies Wernke's agricultural industry with all the Agro, Forestry and Construction 'Mechs while Wernke supplies all of Talon’s water and food needs.

Three of Wernke's four continents, Jal, Crimeia and Vesper, produce all the agricultural products of the planet. The small island continent of Tonkya is a mountainous island cloaked in secrecy. Very few people outside Kallon Industries and the government know what is gong on there. DropShips are seen landing at night and leaving during the day. The mountains hide all activities and the airspace is restricted. Any unauthorized flights are destroyed without warning.
