The Cluster Falk: Notes

Notes page for The Cluster Falk

The Viceroyalty of Benjamelio fits somewhere in the galactic eastern borders of the expanding Third Imperium, on the fringes of Solomani space towards the Hive Federation, among the many client states and pocket empires scattered through the region. Its status as a historical Viceroyalty of the Second Imperium is genuine, but that hardly measures up to its pretensions, which have been magnified in competition with the Priam Protectorate further south.

The so-called Water Wall of the three close water worlds (Leghansky, Lamor and Bevelind) forms a natural strategic barrier dividing the Viceroyalty's core worlds from its frontier. The three water worlds make excellent naval bases and fuel depots, relatively advanced but with small populations to defend. Besides, historically most threats to the Viceroyalty have come from that direction, rather than the core of the old Empire.

* Laser weapons, while about as damaging as projectile weapons, have far longer range and no recoil. They’re also capable of automatic fire without recoil penalties. Their power pack capacity is roughly equivalent to magazines in a projectile weapon.

** Plasma rifles fire single shots, but their plasma bolts spall on impact, creating a Kill Radius.
