Synopsis
Kaiserslautern Depot is a key LWB base in New Berlin, crucial to all Rheinland revolutionaries operating in the system.
It started out as a mining operation in the Saarfeld, and was reused as an ore storage facility after Kruger miners finished carving out the metals from its insides. Abandoned shortly before the Popular Revolution, it was later used by the Red Hessians as a temporary base during their raids into New Berlin. Several years later the aging depot would become a problem to maintain for the Hessians, as they continued transferring as many resources and personnel as possible to their war against the Corsairs in Omega-5. Instead of abandoning the depot completely however, it was decided that control would be transferred over to the emerging LWB instead. The Red Hessians still maintain a number of members on the station, along with the pilots from the Bundschuh, Unioners, and Junkers who stop by on business.
As Kaiserslautern grew as a hub for the revolutionary elements in Rheinland, it also began to be used in a new endeavor: the repatriation of liberated slaves. Many slaves are brought, primarily from Liberty, and set free on Kaiserslautern. The logistics of this operation are mainly conducted by the Bundschuh. While many of the formerly enslaved attempt to return to their previous lives, a good portion end up joining the Hessians in their war in the Omega border worlds. A smaller amount join the LWB, under the promise of becoming independent farmers if Planet Stuttgart is successfully freed from Synth Foods' control.
