Mainworld Data[edit]

Empire is a pleasant and fertile planet with wide rolling oceans and archipelagos of tropical islands.

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Empire is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Empire has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. While a Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear this atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds which requires the use of a Filter Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–3 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Empire has 85-95% of its surface covered by liquid water with a few small continents, and a number of islands and archipelagos. Dry land is limited. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Empire is a low-population Imperial world. The system contains a Naval Base and mothballed vessels in orbit of Empire's third moon are officially designated the Trojan Reserve.

  • The administrators of Empire base are actively seeking colonists to settle on this world and retired naval crews are often offered fiefdoms here.

World Starport[edit]

Empire has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
