Synopsis

Schatten Research Facility was constructed some time during the year 803 A.S., but beyond that, nobody seems to be able to agree on much more. The base is well protected within the alien minefield in the Frankfurt system, virtually inaccessible save for one entry passage.   The base itself is the headquarters for major Rheinland special operation projects, which obviously makes it quite a tempting target. However, the division of Black Legionnaires, some of the toughest ground troops in Sirius, stationed on the base for internal security and the high presence of military vessels in and around the station based off of the battleship Koblenz make an assault almost impossible.   Beyond that, nobody is quite sure what goes on within the station. It's essentially a giant Faraday Cage; no transmissions get out of the base, and there hasn't been a tool invented that can penetrate the electronic shielding. Reports range from experiments in genetic manipulation, to cybernetic enhancements, to Nomad technology, and even to the Nomads themselves.   It has been rumoured, from time to time, that the research facility is the command centre of the BDM, the Rheinland office of naval intelligence, but nothing has ever been confirmed or even slightly validated. No sortie sent against the base, from the Unioners, Red Hessians, or even one memorable attack from the Corsairs, has ever breached the station defences, and it seems likely that for now the secrets of Schatten will remain safe.
