The planet Guadalajara in the Vespucci system is a rare occurrence in the Sirius Sector. Its surface is covered with a mixture of hot deserts, wet jungles, ice cold mountain ranges and virtually every other type of terrain found on other planets in Sirius. However, the great variety brings also all kinds of extreme weather and temperatures, a price worth paying in exchange for the vast amounts of natural resources the planet habits.
Regardless of the sometimes extreme conditions, the Hellfire Legion is planning to undertake a limited terraforming process to make most of the planet's surface habitable. In the more mediterranean and temperate regions, several local installations, along with a few resource-extraction operations formed aroudn what appears to be a relatively small capitol of unknown name. Prior to that the Legion installed an extensive and highly classified planetary defense network which is complemented by full-scaled planetary shields and Fort Leniex's extensive electronic warface systems, rendering any attempts at breaching the jamming fields unlikely in the first place while the planet's own defenses ensure any attempt at an orbital bombardment to be doomed to fail. Despite the installations and the population on the planet's surface howeever, the Legion is unwilling to acquire the necessary data and resources for the construction of a full docking ring, as such a structure would render the jamming field in place effectively pointless the second someone saw the docking ring.
A little known fact about Guadalajara is that the headquarters of the elusive BigMax(TM) corporation are also located on the Planet's surface, the reason for that being a mystery.
