| description = The Omega-11 system is a unique and dangerous system. At its core lies a dying red giant star, a huge ogre, belching out fire and radiation across the system. Most of its planetary bodies have been broken up by the intense tidal and thermal forces of the star as it reaches its death throes. Heat and radiation bathe this forsaken system in an eerie red light that begins eroding the hulls of any ship that enters. The numerous planetary debris clouds provide minor cover from its lethal effects, but any movement outside these fields and a ship will enter the perilous Abgrund, a region of space so alive with deadly particles that to even enter it can be fatal.

| description = Sigma-13 is a Border World system that lies between [[Honshu]] and [[Frankfurt]]. This system lies deep within the Crow Nebula, where volatile gas pockets are frequently encountered. During the 80-year war between the [[Rheinland Military]] and the [[Gas Miners Guild]] (GMG), the GMG lured the [[Rheinland]] fleet deep into this system. A massive GMG ambush, compounded by the gas pockets, resulted the total defeat of the Rheinlanders. That being said, lingering outside marked trade lanes is not recommended.

There is but one reason why humans come to this system: the break up of the planets, and the continued dissolution of the Omega-11 star releases vast amounts of mineral wealth into space in the form of diamonds. The abundance of these beautiful and normally rare objects is enough to lure many into the system seeking wealth. The area most rich in diamonds is the molten Von Rohe Belt that lies around the outer extent of the corona of the dying star. To get there one must brave the Abgrund and the hightened heat and radiation from being so close to the huge star, not to mention the proximity of the corona means a single mistake in course can cause a ship to plummet into the dying giant's deathly embrace. Yet people still travel to the belt to mine the diamonds and to search for wrecks: the hulks of ships who braved the Abgrund and fell foul of it now float around the belt as a testament to their former owners' foolishness. Yet within these hulks there is yet again the promise of bounty as many of these ships still contain salvageable objects for those who can find them and survive the journey.

One of only two planets still intact in the system, its surface is convulsed by numerous volcanos. It serves as a shield for the Solarius station, protecting it from the intense radiation emitted by the dying sun.

: Ore is a type of rock that contains minerals such as gemstones which can be extracted through mining and refined for use. The ores must be processed to extract the gemstones of interest from the waste rock and from the ore minerals.

Sigma-13 is a Border World system that lies between Honshu and Frankfurt. This system lies deep within the Crow Nebula, where volatile gas pockets are frequently encountered. During the 80-year war between the Rheinland Military and the Gas Miners Guild (GMG), the GMG lured the Rheinland fleet deep into this system. A massive GMG ambush, compounded by the gas pockets, resulted the total defeat of the Rheinlanders. That being said, lingering outside marked trade lanes is not recommended.

A small clearing in the nebula that envelops the system and the location of Helgoland Station, local headquarters for ALG Waste Disposal. ALG is currently engaged in clearing the Yanagi Debris Field, the remnants of a battle fought between Rheinland and the Gas Mining Guild (GMG) during the Eighty Years War.

&gt;&gt;&gt;WARNING: NAVIGATIONAL HAZARD&lt;&lt;&lt;

The Sigma-13 region of the Crow Nebula is rich in ionized Hydrogen, Helium, and Oxygen. Home territory of the GMG, the cloud contains the debris field remnants of the once-proud Rheinland Imperial fleet. Travel off of marked Trade Lanes is hazardous and not recommended due to numerous explosive Oxygen gas pockets. Pirate activity is also quite high throughout the cloud.

Yanagi Debris Field

Location: C/5, C/4

During the Eighty Years War between Rheinland and the Gas Miners Guild, huge battles were fought across the entire Sigma-13 system and there were even occasional skirmishes between the two sides within the Frankfurt system itself. The war came to a climax in 668 A.S. at the Battle of the Yanagi Cloud, when the entire Rheinland Imperial Navy was ambushed and destroyed in a battle that lasted a mere 42 minutes. The only surviving battleship was the heavily damaged Westfalen, which managed to flee back to the New Berlin system through an unstable jump hole, covered by a few remaining fighters.

With 11 battleships, 24 cruisers and countless fighters destroyed, along with over 17,000 personnel dead or missing in action, the Rheinland Navy had effectively been destroyed. The government of Rheinland were forced into seeking peace negotiations with the Gas Miners Guild, who could barely contain their delight with their decisive victory. As a result, the government were forced to pay enormous sums of money in reparations, and recognise the Sigma systems as the sovereign territory of the Gas Miners Guild. Rheinland was almost completely bankrupted, as were Kruger Minerals, which had to empty its own coffers as punishment for its own part in the ill-advised war.

The wreckage of that final battle remained in the cloud for over a century, a painful reminder of the Rheinland Military's (formerly the Rheinland Imperial Navy) humiliating defeat at the hands of the Gas Miners Guild. In 792 A.S., however, ALG Waste Disposal was contracted by the GMG to begin the cleanup operations of the Yanagi Cloud debris. ALG soon found that the Junkers had already moved into the area and had constructed Yanagi Depot, looting the choicest bits of wreckage for themselves. Although the Junkers were less concerned with the removal of bodies for burial than the looting and salvaging of wrecks, ALG decided to hire them to clean up the more dangerous wrecks, many of which had damaged reactor cores leaking heavily radioactive waste into the clouds.

Pressured continually by the Rheinland government and the GMG to clean up the mess faster, ALG eventually declared the Yanagi Cloud completely free of any salvageable wrecks in 814 A.S., citing that all remaining debris in the Yanagi Cloud consists mainly of human bodies, wrecked hull panels, various broken bits of un-repairable weapons and corroded proximity mines that remained armed. The Yanagi Cloud is expected to be completely cleared around 824 A.S.

Mineable Commodities

Scrap Metal

Location: C/5, D/6

The rapid industrialization that followed the settlement of the Sirius Sector has resulted in large fields of Scrap Metal, the detritus resulting from extensive manufacturing and mining operations. These debris fields present both a navigational hazard and a potential second-stage resource, so a small cottage industry has sprung up among those who collect scrap metal and resell it at smelting plants.

Premium Scrap

Location: C/4

Moderately damaged hull panels, salvagable engine components and other ship parts that are too valuable to be simply thrown in the smelters. These salvaged parts can be refurbished by some shipyards, and put back into service. They are in demand at shipyards that do not have a steady supply of new parts.

Helium-3

Location: G/3, G/3, G/4, G/4, G/3

A lighter isotope of Helium gas, He3 is an essential component of the H-Fuel used across Sirius. When mixed in equal proportion with Deuterium, the resulting fuel has the advantage of being 'aneutronic' - that is, it does not produce dangerous neutrons that require heavy shielding. Gas Mining companies like the GMG and Samura can charge a premium by delivering the Helium-3 component directly to customers, letting them add their own Deuterium onsite. Known reserves of Helium-3 are in the Crow Nebula of the Sigmas, and the Shiden Cloud in the Hokkaido system.
