Planet Tangier is a young, terrestrial planet orbiting its sun at a considerable distance. It is a cold world with barely enough atmosphere to support life and still largely burning under its moderately thin crust. The Planet has hundreds of active volcanoes and massive earthquakes that frequently decimate areas along the Planet’s faultlines. The main attraction of Tangier lies in its moderate, but easily accessible mineral deposits of Iron, [[Aluminum]] and Magnesium which are mined and sent up to the [[Viernheim Base]] for processing.

Tangier had previously been surveyed by the [[Corsairs]] before falling under [[Red Hessian]] control after the Casablanca offensive of 811 AS. In 816 [[A.S.]] multiple small expeditions were launched to the planet in order to occupy existing and construct new mining facilities with plans made to construct a docking ring in orbit to ease the supplying of [[Food]] and [[Water]] and the bring up of raw minerals.
  
A barren Planet in the [[Omega 47]] system, planet Tangier hangs isolated and alone but has however become an added source of tension between the [[Corsairs]] and the [[Red Hessians]] in their struggle for control of the the system. With the Hessians construction of  [[Viernheim Base]] in orbit and commencing low level mining operations on the surface the planet has moved more firmly into the Hessian sphere of influence of the sector, although this control can by no means be described as secure and the Hessians try too maintain a vigorous defence of the area.

By 824 AS, after eight years of difficult work, the docking ring of planet Tangier became active, easing the supply of food and water and also drastically expanding the transer of minerals for processing at Viernheim, the planet's orbital processing facility. The population of the small outpost grew as living conditions improved, and colonization of the planet continued in the areas of the planet confirmed most geolitically stable.
  
The planet was once the scene of a colonisation attempt by the Corsairs, although the settlement was known to have failed and was abandoned, attempts by the Corsairs to locate many of the missing colonists were unsuccessful and with no sign of them ever being found the colony and its inhabitants were considered lost. Further attempts at colonisation have been rendered impossible owing to the increased Hessian presence in the system.

Planet Tangier is a young, terrestrial planet orbiting its sun at a considerable distance. It is a cold world with barely enough atmosphere to support life and still largely burning under its moderately thin crust. The Planet has hundreds of active volcanoes and massive earthquakes that frequently decimate areas along the Planet’s faultlines. The main attraction of Tangier lies in its moderate, but easily accessible mineral deposits of Iron, Aluminum and Magnesium which are mined and sent up to the Viernheim Base for processing.

Tangier had previously been surveyed by the Corsairs before falling under Red Hessian control after the Casablanca offensive of 811 AS. In 816 A.S. multiple small expeditions were launched to the planet in order to occupy existing and construct new mining facilities with plans made to construct a docking ring in orbit to ease the supplying of Food and Water and the bring up of raw minerals.

By 824 AS, after eight years of difficult work, the docking ring of planet Tangier became active, easing the supply of food and water and also drastically expanding the transer of minerals for processing at Viernheim, the planet's orbital processing facility. The population of the small outpost grew as living conditions improved, and colonization of the planet continued in the areas of the planet confirmed most geolitically stable.

In 827 AS, Corsair forces overwhelmed the Red Hessian garrison at Viernheim, only to be driven back by the Coalition Carrier Alvin Katz. The loss of Viernheim left Tangier a much less valuable outpost, and Hessian economic calculus decided against rebuilding the orbital processor at the edge of their supply lines. By mutual agreement the Hessians left administration of the planet to the Coalition, though Hessians still come and go from the outpost, and some of the minerals dug from the planet still fuel the Hessian war machine. For its part, the Coalition intends to capitalize on the sacrifice of the Alvin Katz by expanding colonization of the planet.
