Overview

A fortress that saw significant fighting during the First Poxwar, Redobti is in a system that has no inhabitable worlds and is sparse, utterly devoid of life. The system is, however, a necessary stop for the most stable warp lanes that grant access to the critical worlds of Gothar, and as such the Imperium has heavily fortified the system. Redobti was originally a lifeless planetoid with a hostile sparse atmosphere that has since been turned into a bastion with a breathable (though unpleasant) climate, with hundreds of miles of trenches, fortifications, macrocannon batteries, and void shield generators. Stationed at the primary Mandeville Point for incoming traffic, any vessel that is using the safe warp lanes must travel past the imposing fortress world, which forces all but the fastest or most reckless to land to fight, as trying to avoid her will result in crippled engines as the planet mounted guns tear into the rears of any who flee. The forces of the ruinous powers invaded Redobti during the First Poxwar and were able to successfully take over the world's strongest weapons batteries, though the defenders managed to hold on long enough for reinforcements to arrive and help reclaim the world during the later years of the war. Today the world is defended far less than the First Poxwar (as the Aural and Iron Gates take priority), though it still has enough power to prevent a proper invasion of Battlefleet Eternum's most important Ports. It also stands ready to support more defenders if Caligulas were to fall, though this would mean Eternum is in truly dark times were it to happen.
