Notes: Work in Progress

• Just because the sub-catagory headings exist doesn't imply that those organizations are involved in any of the games.
• Not all of the ships mentioned are active concurrently to the current stage in either of the games.

• All positions listed in the following are centered on the Charest System (Britannia Colony Planet), which is located some 67 light years from Earth. In the following, 0 to 360 degrees (going clockwise) is the direction off of the horizontal (with 0 degrees being ‘North’). + or – indicates how far off the vertical that the item is.

LV-426

Char System: 90 degrees x 23 light-years, + 5 light-years

LV-426

Population: unknown

Government: Dictatorship

Type: Pirate Base

Military: (Pirate) unknown

Notes: The planet is dry as a bone and has little to no natural moisture on it. Indigenous vegetation, if found, is limited to cactus type plants. Indigenous wildlife, if found, is limited to small lizard type beasties and insects. It is notorious in the UNS for it is the site of a failed UNS Colony; one that some UNS people consider to be haunted. A terraforming tower was built and some type of energy field was established in one rocky valley, enabling a farming and mining colony to be established in the immediate proximity to the tower.

Something happened and the residents of the colony were all killed. The only evidence that they were killed was… a red, bloody goo that was all that remained of their bodies. The bones and everything else were liquefied by… well, the UNS scientists are still uncertain as to the cause. The UNS scrubbed the site down, removed most of the equipment that they could, and closed the site down. The UNS hasn’t visited LV-426 since the incident. There is no accurate or updated information on the site for the past 10 years.

The Terraforming Tower on Planet LV-426:

based on the following images: Skycity 1 Skycity 2

The tower is built in a circular valley with sheer cliff walls reaching almost 200 m in height. The landscape around the tower is broken and there are numerous clefts in the cliff that can be used to approach the tower with stealth.

Each level is roughly bowl shaped, with a radius of 175 (lowest level) ~ 125 (topmost level) m and each floor has a height of 60 m with an additional 20 m height (for a total of 80 m) of open space with only support columns. There are 10 floors in total, above ground. A track was designed run around the circumference of each level as a means to quickly and easily move people around. The main vertical elevators are in the support columns. In the center of each level is an area for a park. Each level is it’s own separate city-block type area, with shops, offices and plenty of apartments in multi-level arrangements. The average building is three to five floors high, with the taller ones reaching 7/8 floors in height. This is the arrangement that the UNS engineers who built the tower envisioned for it. The surface of the ceiling contained most of the atmospheric processors; all of which were removed when the UNS pulled out. The layout of the tower is known to be the following:

Pirates Secret Tower (based on Skycity building):

• 10 – Completely destroyed
• 9 – Virtually destroyed.
• 8 – Mecha hangar, weapons storage and repair level
• 7 – Pirating spoils storage level
• 6 – Pirating spoils spill-over storage level
• 5 – abandoned
• 4 –abandoned
• 3 – Starship hangar level, repair facilities, meeting rooms, offices and ‘guest’ rooms. Storage depot and repair facility for the Anti-UN that occasionally stopover and trade with the Pirates; big door on one side: 80 x 80 m.
• 2 – Level of the prisoners and secondary guest level
• 1 – abandoned
• Ground level – destroyed by fire
• Sub-level 1 – abandoned
• Sub-level 2 – minimal size, abandoned
• Sub-level 3 – minimal size, abandoned
• Sub-level 4 – minimal size, abandoned save for: Neo-Zeon, home of some rogues that the Pirates either didn’t know or care about. Have access caves dug out from their sub-level
• Sub-level 5 – minimal size, abandoned
• Sub-level 6 – minimal size, abandoned
• Sub-level 7 – minimal size, abandoned
• Sub-level 8 – Engineering level for monitoring geo-energy extraction machinery

Note: each level is roughly bowl shaped, with a radius of 175 (base) ~ 125 (top) m and a height of 60 m (10 floors). There is an additional 20 m height (for a total of 80 m) of open space with only support columns. A track (unused except for on the palace level) runs around the circumference of each level. In the center of each level is a park. Every level save for the palace is dry with no plant life whatsoever to speak of.

All modern masters of Japanese style martial arts learned directly from him. He is considered a cultural treasure. Neo Edo is modern colony. Officers in the colonial miliary carry swords. Tourists are surpized to find not everyone on the planet knows karate. Wannabe Ninjas consider the planet a holy place. The colonist think they are crazy.

Britannia is Jester’s creation. Please let him know if you are planning on visiting the Colony. Britannia is part of UNSM campaign because the Death Angels had a mission near there. It plays no direct role in the campaign but will be mention by name. Such as, “ the Reinforcements had to stop off a Britannia for some repairs”.
