History & Background (Dossier)

Albe is a poor, high-population and heavily industrialized hellworld located in the Sindal Subsector of the Trojan Reach.

Albe was originally settled to exploit significant lanthanum deposits, and during the Sindalian Empire was second only to Noricum (Trojan Reach 2018) in influence.

  • However, overpopulation and a weak ruler led to planetary disaster following the collapse of the empire.
  • Reconstruction took centuries, and since joining the Imperium Albe has begun terraforming nearby Cordillon (Trojan Reach 2411), with the hope that the new system will eventually relieve Albe's crippling overpopulation.
