Darkkhan: Difference between revisions

The Potsdam Ring produces or repairs many escort frigates every few months, a few light cruisers yearly, and a proper cruiser every few years for the Imperial Navy, with the rest of production going towards simpler System Defense Fleets or private buyers. On top of their ship production tithe, Darkkhan also provides a large number of Naval ratings and laborers for the Navy. These individuals are preferred to traditional Naval impressments as living on Darkkhan where the sun rarely shines and light is limited to poorly maintained lumen globes readies the bulk of the population for the dark corridors of void-life. Like most of the Navy's lower class conscripts, Darkkhanites recruited to ships will never see their world again unless their ship is sent to the Potsdam Ring for repairs or refitting, instead joining the deck-clans that have lived and died for centuries on the Imperial ships they serve. Although Darkkhan is a dreary world their craftsmanship is incredibly well regarded by those who have commanded her ships, and seeing Potsdam Ring as the shipwraight is a reassuring sight for any appointed captain or officers.
