History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
It is the capital of one of the three states that collectively make up the Trindel Confederacy.
Recently occupied by a Galian battlefleet under the command of Rear Admiral Jaime Marcus, this world is under martial law. It is one of the Confederacy's most important centers of industry and manufacturing. The occupation, carried out to prevent Viyard Concourse occupation, has brought relations between Gateway (Gateway 1220) and Trindel (Gateway 1725) to a new low.
Military[edit]
Former home port for the 2nd TCN Battle Squadron, and the site of manufacture for the TCN's Taravesh Class Gunboats. The survivors of the squadron have been forced to withdraw, yet vow to retake their world.
