Plot-Critical Planets
EarthThe centre of the Imperial Combine, Earth is a paradise. Most of the population lives in advanced tower cities, leaving huge swathes of the planet to nature.
|
DamastionThe only truly Earth-like planet found so far, Damastion is a retreat for the most affluent and influential of the Empire's citizens. Elm Caden's life began here.
|
Ramm StallahadA planet in the Herses system, both a strategic human outpost and the location of a crucial xtryllium stockpile. A world the Empire would never surrender.
|
Meccrace PrimeA well-developed Imperial planet with a large population, Meccrace Prime was invaded relatively early on in the Great Shaeld War. It remains inaccessible.
|
Palanda IrePalanda Ire supports life but is not quite similar to Earth. Due to vast deposits of rare earth minerals it is the site of many high-end fabrication facilities.
|
MibesA well-developed human world on the Perseus arm of the galaxy, with many large cities. Mibes has twice been occupied militarily by the Viskr Junta.
|
Serrofus MajorA relatively under-developed Imperial colony world, with a native population which resents bending to the will of the xenophobic Proconsul Kalistine.
|
AldavaA fringe world close to the edge of the Deep Shadows. Aldava had a large human population but relatively primitive facilities. It is now a dead planet.
|
GuatheliaA developed Imperial world, but not of any great political or economic note. Guathelia was one of the first worlds to fall to the Shaeld Hrathan offensive.
|
Kementhast PrimeA well-established planet, similar to Earth in many respects, Kementhast Prime has thrived. The planet supports a very large population across many cities.
|
Maidre ShalleonOne of the Empire's more developed worlds, with a strong export- and service-basis economy. Boasts a sophisticated and cultured society which values new ideas.
|
LopamaCold, wet, and desolate, with only a primitive biosphere, Lopama suffers turbulent storms. Colonisation failed, and Forge Ruinous stands here empty.
|
And the Many More...
Between the Orion, Perseus, and Sagittarius arms of the Milky Way galaxy, the Imperial Combine controls huge numbers of star systems. There are now so many planets inhabited by mankind that few individuals will ever visit a notable fraction of the entire empire.
