Planet:Antemurale

"Any attack made against Antemurale would be suicide."

Antemurale is a perpetually stormy planet in the Outer Rim famous for being the headquarters of the Imperial Military. Colonised millennia ago by the of Andromeda in order to show their teachers how far they had come, Antemurale was terraformed from the once lifeless world into a lush rainforest world. The Rades defended the planet against invasion by installing a sophisticated techno-organic defence system, led by the AI called Netzach. This system connects the entirety of the planet's ecosystem, meaning that even wildlife and plantlife would fight to protect Antemurale if it was ever invaded. However, events in their home galaxy forced the Rades to abandon their fortress world, which soon became embroiled in constant storm.

However, the strategic location of Antemurale as well as its abundance in Rade technology made the planet a key target for many colonising powers. However, all would fail until the rise of the, which conquered the planet using the Oikoumene influences present in Imperial technology. Antemurale's location in the Outer Rim prompted the Imperials to establish the headquarters of the Imperial Military in the Imperial City on Antemurale, with its central tower known as the "Bastion" making use of hyperspace wormholes to instantly connect Antemurale to the capital world.

Despite the strong Imperial presence, Antemurale holds many secrets lurking in its dense jungles.
