Solomani Front
 |
The scene of bitter fighting in the Solomani Rim War¸ tensions still run high in the Solomani Front. In the Solomani Rim¸ hard-liners agitate for a campaign to retake Terra from the Imperials whilst dissidents plot secession from the Solomani Confederation. In Alpha Crucis¸ independent worlds seek to chart their own course despite interference from the Confederation. The Solomani Front is a land of opportunity¸ lying between the open worlds of the rimward fringe and the vast markets of the Imperium. Cross-border trade and diplomacy form a backdrop for covert operations¸ intelligence-gathering missions and backstreet skullduggery. With factions pushing their own agendas at the expense of others¸ the knife and the bomb are tools of diplomacy to many. Under pressure from within and without¸ the Confederation struggles to maintain its independence and preserve its unique spirit. It is here that the Solomani claim to superiority will be tested; in the crucible of the Solomani Front. Inside you will find:
- Several new playable alien races¸ including the Selenites¸ Aquamorph Humans¸ Apes¸ Gurungan and Ladybugs.
- The Vegans and the Vegan Autonomous District are explored in detail¸ including Vegan Travellers and a Vegan High Guard expansion.
- The much-maligned Crusader superheavy tank¸ the Galvan Corrosive Environment Construction Platform¸ the Hunterfoils of Bellerophon¸ the sometimes lethal Torbellino Speeder¸ and many other vehicles found throughout the Solomani Front.
- Many new ships found in this region of Charted Space¸ including the Kestrel Aerospace Fighter¸ Scorpion Strike Boat¸ Mountain Logistics Barge¸ and the Daring Fleet Destroyer.
- Animals¸ diseases and other hazards native to the worlds of both the Solomani Rim and Alpha Crucis sectors.
