Sigma-13

The Frankfurt System (Rheinland space) is located in the end of the Rheinland territory, between New Berlin, Munich, and Sigma-13. During the 80 Year War is when most of the expansion of the system took place as the system was the to be used as the staging ground for attacks into Sigma-13, however by the wars end most of the system was left ruined and mostly abandoned with GMG raiding parties that ceased several years before the Nomad War doing nothing to improve the situation. For these reasons the Bundschuh have placed their base in this system, and it is used by other pirates to attack opportunity targets making a quite dangerous travel for traders. It is also rumored to contain a military research facility.

Planetary Bodies

Planet Holstein

Initially charted in the original exploration of the Frankfurt system in 82 A.S., the planet Holstein was ignored for centuries by the government as its primary concern was the industrial development of Rheinland. Eventually, with the help of prominent politicians on New Berlin, Kruger Minerals succeeded in obtaining the financial loans from Interspace Commerce in order to terraform Holstein, which started in 519 A.S.

Planet Holstein

Heidelberg

A large gas giant with substantial traces of deuterium and tritium in its upper atmosphere, Heidelberg is currently being mined by Kruger Minerals from their base on Mannheim Station in orbit.
Location: C/6

Escape Velocity: 19.21 km/sec

Stulingen

A moon of the planet Holstein, Stulingen is a hot, dry world warmed by internal volcanic processes. With no atmosphere capable of supporting life and no known valuable resources, it is highly unlikely that anyone will attempt to construct any facilities planetside. Republican Shipping constructed Mainz Storage Facility in orbit to conduct shipping transfers between the GMG and Rheinland.

Stulingen

Nebula and Asteroids

Taunusfeld

A field of bare rock asteroids, this was once a staging area for military operations during the 80-Years War. The field was later abandoned after Rheinland's bitter defeat at the hands of the Gas Mining Guild (GMG). Ironically, probes have begun to detect a substantial Bundschuh presence in the field, though the exact nature of their activities is currently unknown.
Location: E/2

Westerwald

The Westerwald cloud is a massive, copper coloured nebula, covering the west side of Frankfurt. Bundschuh and Unioners are prolific within the cloud, launching attacks against the Mainz Storage Facility. Military forays into the cloud have also become more frequent in recent times. The government claims that they are searching for a supposed jump hole, but there are rumours that the government is operating a clandestine base within the cloud. Due to the cloud's utility as a staging ground, the military has instituted measures to keep civilian traffic away from the area. All who enter do so of their own volition and should not expect to find friends within, whether military or otherwise. Proceed at your own risk.
Location: C/3

Sudnebel

The Sudnebel is a huge outcropping of the Walker nebula covering the entire southern outskirts of the Frankfurt system. Due to it's sheer size, the nebula has not been fully charted. The nebula consists of fine particulate dust which confuses most sensors. Hessians often launch raids out of the nebula, attacking both Mannheim and the lane leading to New Berlin.
Location: E/8

Space Stations

Mainz Storage Facility

Originally built by the Imperial government at the beginning of the Eighty Years War to serve as a forward base against the periodic GMG strikes into Frankfurt, the Mainz station is known for its dual role in those times, serving as both a defensive fort and a storage facility for whatever H-Fuel supplies could be liberated from Sigma-13. It managed to endure for the entirety of the war (including several organised attacks on Holstein itself), only to become a symbol of imperialist aggression after the decisive victory of the GMG in the Battle of the Yanagi Cloud ignited the first sparks of civil unrest in Rheinland.

Mannheim Station

Officially Mannheim Station is owned by Kruger Minerals and they use the base to mine deuterium from the nearby gas giant of Heidelberg. Originally constructed in 670 A.S. by Daumann, Mannheim never made much profit, although Daumann used it more for the prestige of owning the only H-Fuel manufacturing facility in Rheinland than for making money directly, for it gave them a bit more power, especially over their Kruger rivals.

Bruchsal Base

Believed to be founded by a group of New Berlin University students in 679 AS, the movement had much support among the liberal elite of New Berlin, tired of the corrupt practices of the government that had led them to financial ruin near the end of the 80-Years War. During the Dresden rebellion of 700 AS, the Bundschuh found their first official cause -- shipping supplies "liberated" from Frankfurt to the Kruger and Daumann rebels. Three months after that, sympathetic maintenance workers started sabotaging Daumann manufacturing operations in New Berlin. The industrial heart of Rheinland stopped beating, and the Popular Revolution had begun.

Battleship Koblenz

After the Nomad war ended in 802 A.S., the resulting economic upswing in all four Houses finally gave Rheinland the financial stability to begin reconstructing its capital ship fleet. With the commissioning of the Battleship Westfalen in 803 A.S., the first of the Bismarck class, it wasn't long before more followed it. The Battleship Koblenz was launched in 809 A.S. and was immediately stationed in orbit of the planet Holstein to protect Daumann interests from the Red Hessians.

Schatten Research Facility

Schatten Research Facility was constructed some time during the year 803 A.S., but beyond that, nobody seems to be able to agree on much more. The base is well protected within the alien minefield in the Frankfurt system, virtually inaccessible save for one entry passage.
