Anthracite is the fourth planet of Kepler-186 system. Earth-like exoplanet with great deposits of galvaon. It owes its name to the dominant color of the planet – dark gray oceans. The planet consists mainly of desert areas and oceans. There is dense vegetation along the oceans, often swampy areas or jungles. However, quickly, about 200 km from the shoreline, the vegetation is thinning to give way to rocky and desert terrain.
A planet considered colonizable in 2056 by the Spanish cosmologist Diego Ferrer. It owes its name to the dominant color of the planet – dark gray oceans.
The colonization began on August 21, 2082 with the establishment of the primary colony ANT01, swifly dubbed ‘Door Town’ by the first colonists. In those pioneering days, the corporate settlers struggled both against the dangerous land as well as the wild, local fauna. MultiMine tripled the number of security guards and hunters on the surface of Anthracite. In time, the expansion progressed and new facilities were built. In only two years, 23 complexes were created. Every of them consisting districts with various functions, from mines, through residential and food farms to research and galvaon refineries. Over time, daughter factories such as Violet Power Company began to install their bases on Anthracite.
On July 12, 2088, MM and VPC first gathered the fruits of their work and successfully began selling their engines for heavy vehicles and machines. Thanks to the huge success on Earth and 5 other planets with the best developed industry, MM quickly made hundreds of companies dependent on its fuel.
MultiMine successively sent more miners and technicians to the planet, and eventually even their entire families. In order to provide the best living conditions for employees bringing profits at the GDP level of the smaller planet, MM was not limited to the necessary structures, but began to build, among others entertainment centers.
Thanks to Base Printers, subsequent cities were rising at a dizzying pace. In 2098, just before the collapse, more than 400 bases were built, and Anthracite was inhabited by 2 million colonists.
After the Second Big Bang, many corporations, including MultiMine, having headquarters on Earth officially ceased to exist. Confused MultiMine employees slowly began to divide into conservatives and opportunists. The former, believing that contact would resume and that the mother company would return to them, wanted to keep everything to themselves and dug in the cities. The opportunists, however, cut off all nostalgia and built a new community.
After returning teleportation, many groups became interested in Anthracite. MM employees were not ready to defend the planet’s goods and themselves from other colonies that would gladly lay their hands on Galvaon. For their own safety, they interrupted contact with other planets and deactivated all teleporters on the surface of Anthracite.
However, this did not prevent others from trying to take over the precious mineral. More TacticalTroops teams from other colonies, ACP army combat troops and Bullets gangs – interplanetary pirates began to teleport in Anthracite’s orbit.
Anthracite consists mainly of desert areas and oceans. There is dense vegetation along the oceans, often swampy areas or jungles. However, quickly, about 200 km from the shoreline, the vegetation is thinning to give way to rocky and desert terrain.
Vegetable areas are very rich in wildlife that directly threatens human colonies. For this reason, human bases are most often built in deserts more than 100 kilometers from the shoreline.
Anthracite consists of over 76% water. The water is acid, but you can drink it. Ocean animals have never been thoroughly examined. It is only known that they take enormous sizes reaching over 40 meters.
Along the oceans, there is a dense jungle and dangerous swamps filled with unidentified animals. People don’t go there. The brave men who have ventured more than a few kilometers deep into the jungle have never returned.
The central part of the continent is covered by desert. It is mainly an open desert area, here and there with rocky mountains and stones. After forced construction interruptions and destroyed cities, there are wrecks of construction vehicles and machines, sand-covered ruins or unfinished city buildings.
Anthracite is characterized by high mountains with extensive cave networks and numerous canyons. Caves and canyons are usually enclosed, with labyrinths of corridors and smaller rooms. In some places the unit may encounter traps.
Due to the large number of Bases and their various functions, they are dependent on each other. One focuses on food production, the other is typically mining, and the other is entertainment and residential. For this reason, it was necessary to build a road and rail network enabling land communication between bases. Traditional passenger vehicles, trucks and trains complemented the fast but very expensive medium-range teleportation.
