Tau-31 System

Tau-31 is located within the Barrier, deeper than Tau-29, yet not as deep as Tau-23 or Tau-37. It is a main arterial route from Bretonia to Kusari, that goes from Leeds, through Tau-31 and Tau-29 to Kyushu. The entire system is blanketed by a vast field of frozen water and oxygen, that the IMG intend to exploit from their base at the Holman Outpost. The only other base in the system is Planet Harris, a barren world that is being brought to life by Planetform Inc., despite resistance from the Bretonian terrorist faction; the Gaians. Other criminal activity includes the Outcasts, who are involved in a bitter war with the BMM over the construction of their Tau-23 Jump Gate, that encroaches on the Outcast's territory.

The system is a now a gallic occupied system, except of the bretonian enclave Planet Harris.

Tau-31 Ice crystal Field

A vast field of water ice with some oxygen ice pockets, the Tau-31 field lies in the heart of the Barrier. The planetform Terraforming project ist hte most noteable activity in the system, along with the Holman outpost, a key supply depot for the IMG and its operations furthur afield in Tau-23. A trade lane is currently under construction between Holman and the Tau-23 Gate, but its completion has been delayed by recent pirate attacks.

Tau-31 Mine Field

Tau-31 Mine Field >>>CAUTION<<<

When Kusari Navy defeated Bretonian forces near Leeds Jump Gate, surviving ships of Bretonia retreated to Harris and drew a large part of Kusari fleet into a trap. Few Kusari pilots were able to escape from treacherous minefields that Bretonia Armed Forces carefully prepared. This, however, did not turn the tides of Tau-31 struggle, for Kusari quickly brought massive reinforcements from Tau-29.
