TERRESTRIAL (ARTIC, WASTELAND)

Tynda is a barren world on the Nebulan Fringe, on the very border of Metron space. Outwardly it is a frigid, desolate place, but its strategic position on the Nebulan frontier made it a necessary and effective garrison post. Although it has resource value beneath its sweeping wastes, the Nebulan Empire hasn’t been able to raise the engineers and colonists to develop it. It was not deemed a safe region even before the Metron conflict began, and will not likely see colonization in the near future.

The garrison base on Tynda is a standard major Nebulan frontier outpost. It consists of a hardened central facility, which is comprised of a barracks, primary weapons caches, command center, and infirmary. Around the main base are several training yards; these are then bordered by a heavily reinforced and fortified wall. After the first wall is a lighter (by Nebulan standards) secondary wall. These bases dot the Nebulan Fringe, and are considered too hard for any independent group like pirates to penetrate. It is rumored that the base on Tynda was indeed attacked in the week before the Battle of Aquias, but this report cannot be confirmed.
