Jump map from Travellermap.com

Masyaf is an agricultural, nonindustrial, garden world with a near-ideal, utopian environment conducive to most sophonts.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• Its economy and population are rapidly growing and living conditions are expected to moderately rise in the near future.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Ostermann Subsector of Crucis Margin Sector.

History & Background (Dossier)

World Starport (Sp)

Masyaf has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.
