Synopsis

Syros was a project undertaken by the Corsair nation in 802 A.S., overseen by one of Crete's powerful military families (the Benitez). Originally intended to act primarily as the base of operations for forces in the area, the station was later expanded to include a dry-dock. Since the creation of the dry-dock, Syros has been dubbed a "Shipyard" and has acted as a servicing and repair facility for Osiris, and now Legate Class battleships. After the Delos' deployment to Omicron-94, Syros Shipyard was expanded to include a secondary dry-dock, the construction of which is still under way and is estimated to reach completion over the next 12 months. Despite it's size and facilities, constructions of new vessels rarely take place at Syros due to the difficulty of transporting raw materials to the region.


Syros Shipyard is located in orbit of the colourful Mykonos Gas Giant, gas scoops from which are used to supplement artificial atmospheres for all bases in the region. The nearby terrestrial moon of Naxos is used as a target for weapons testing undertaken by warships hailing from the base.
