Regina Description
The mineral-rich planet of Regina is known for its massive mining operations. Over three-quarters of the population work in one part of mining industry or another. Most of the mines are run by the Corone Mining Consortium, although there are still a few local owners hanging on. Corone’s workers are underpaid and their working conditions can be extremely dangerous. The miners of Regina take a stoic pride in their work and the suffering they endure. As if things were not hard enough, the ore-processors and atmospheric conditions of Regina have created conditions for a disease called Bowden’s Malady, a degenerative affliction of the bone and muscles that leaves victims weak and in constant pain. While there is no cure, regular treatment with Pasceline-D halts the progression of the disease and makes life tolerable.
The Alliance sponsors regular shipments of the expensive drug to Regina. The drug is drop-shipped to central location and delivered by train to the individual mining towns. The people of the world are dependent on this government handout, though shipments are not as frequent as they should be.
- Dropped off some thugs for Badger in Hancock.
- Potemkin had an orbital photo with longitude and latitude marks for a place in the desert.
- Delivered six Independence "Spectre" agents from Boros.
- Discovered a "safehouse" used by Potemkin, loaded with supplies and funds (booby trapped as well). Set up the Spectre agents there.
- Summer 2522 - The Federal base on Regina was abandoned after Regina left the union. That base has since been demolished by unknown forces using demolitions.
