History & Background (Dossier)

Honorably dismissed from service with Diabei in 1127, Six Gun’s returning Colonial Army found the local government in complete disarray. They threw out the Colonial Proctors from Six Gun’s parent system—Bones—and set themselves up as the new leaders. However, they are even more hierarchical and painfully orthodox than the old government.

  • The Fishing Admirals of this water-world’s most influential Sweeper Fleets (Six Gun’s primary source of income) have requested that the current junta step down. Naval units have been dispatched from the small rocky island capital of Blackspire to deal with these "seditious buccaneers." In response, the Fishing Admirals have accepted the services of a company of Cumberan light infantry which happened to pass through the system.
  • Oblivious to these dire portents of civil strife, the planet’s almost 20 million chirpers continue to produce large numbers of aquatically adapted mutant offspring. This trend, which has been noted for 200 years, has accelerated. Almost 10 percent of all hatchlings have the new amphibious physiology.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Six Gun, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
