Tech-World is a low-population world with a population of less than 10,000 sophonts in size.

Description (Planetology)[edit]

This world is part of the Tech-World Cluster. It looks like a rusty wasteland from orbit, save for a black disc where the colony and starport are located. It lacks native life forms or mineral resources of any value.

Point of Interest: Tech-World Starport[edit]

The General Development Company (GeDeCo) funded the construction of the Class-A Starport on Tech-World to encourage Imperium-Hierate trade through the subsector.

  • GeDeCo used renegades from the technologically advanced world of Neumann (Trojan Reach 3105) for the construction, and the resulting starport is technological marvel: a huge black ovoid that reconfigures itself dynamically to cope with rising or falling traffic.
  • There is a bar/diner named Luddites just outside of StarPort that caters to those who find the high tech environment overwhelming. The highest tech in the establishment would be a robotic washing machine.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Tech-World is a low-population Imperial Client State located on the Hierate Route in the The Borderland Subsector of the Trojan Reach.

  • While the human population of Tech-world is around four thousand, the robot population is approximately a million and rising.
