Sigma-60

[Suralin]

I decided to write a description of how I imagine Sigma-60 being filled out, complete with a poorly-done map in Paint. I'll post more of these if people like them.



Sigma-60


Jump Gates to: N/A
Jump Holes to: Omicron-85, Omicron-64, Sigma-59

Corporations: GMG
Criminals: Outcasts
Others: Zoners


Tradelanes: N/A
System population:
* Zoners show up around the northeastern quarter of the system. They only go and come via the Omicron-64 JH; they know well enough to leave those other two jump holes alone.
* Outcasts appear throughout the whole system, but are in greater numbers in the northern half. Very few should wander to the Sigma-59 JH.
* GMG appear mostly in the western and southern parts of the system, and rarely visit Freeport 8. They're there almost entirely as a defensive gesture to prevent Outcasts from hitting the GMG freehold.


Cabrera Field
An outcropping of the Edge Nebula. It is considered to be Outcast territory.

Location: Ellipsoid, the western part of the system.
Color: Green
Radiation: Yes
Damp Sensors: No
Roids: The flat ones seen in Omi Beta
Other objects: Jump holes to Omi-64 and Omi-85, and some Outcast weapon platforms near the Omi-85 JH


Planet Yari
A hot, dry, marginally habitable planet. Orbital scans by GMG and Zoner explorers have both found moderate deposits of minerals. The point is likely moot, as Yari lies on the border with Outcast territory and is thus unlikely to be settled.


Freeport 8 (Zoners)
In contrast to many Zoner outposts, Freeport 8 struggles to survive in the harsh environment of the outer Sigma systems. It processes the minerals mined in the Korlin Field into usable materials, such as Basic Alloys, which the Zoners sell for money to spend on necessities such as food, water, and medical supplies. Freeport 8 also serves as a trading post.
Freeport 8 is the only outpost in Sigma-60 and the only remaining Freeport in the Sigma systems, after the destruction of Freeport 7 by Nomads in 800 AS.

Station layout:
It should have a smelting plant, no biodomes (reliant on imports from Kusari), but a large number of storage units. The Zoners ship various supplies and goods there from Honshu, and sell them to the Outcasts.


Korlin Field
Named for the Zoner who claimed it, the Korlin Field is an anomaly in Sirius, containing a variety of minerals, but none in high quantities. It is unknown why it never coalesced into a planet, and the presence of Outcasts in system makes it unlikely that a scientific mission to determine this will be carried out anytime soon. Zoners from Freeport 8 ply the field, searching for minerals they can process into the goods they sell to survive.

Location: Ellipsoid, the northeastern part of the system.
Radiation: No
Damp Sensors: No
Roids: Round Tau-23 roids.
Minable: No.
Other objects: Three Zoner asteroid miners.



GMG Dust Cloud
A cloud of dust with no appreciable resources. GMG patrols are known to be in the area.

Location: An ellipsoid, in the southern part of the system.
Roid Type: Dust
Radiation: No
Minable: No
Other objects: The Sigma-59 jump hole, and several GMG weapon platforms.
