Leipzig Station
Leipzig Station is the main ore processing and smelting operation for Daumann Heavy Construction in Dresden. A chaotic system of fierce tidal eddies and volcanic asteroids, Dresden is an unforgiving environment; conditions aboard Leipzig are reportedly little better, with overcrowding a constant problem and industrial accidents a common occurrence. Cargo runs are usually under heavy protection since their valuable cargo makes them a particularly attractive target for pirates.

Rumours
Bautzen Station
"Everyone knows that it was Daumann's fault that the miners in this system revolted. But the chain reaction swept through all of Rheinland. The reperations we were forced to pay, along with the crippling losses we incured in the Eighty-Years War, have left us struggling to stay afloat."
"The Diamonds we mine in this system aren't usually high enough quality to make the Luxury Goods markets, but they are perfect for industrial drill bits. Kruger ships these Diamonds to Essen, and while in Essen we purchase Mining Machinery and bring it back here."
"The most recent Red Hessian attack on our operations was horrible. They caught a whole team of miners working a large asteroid in the Schwefelnebel. The miserable He* didn't stop firing until there was nothing moving but body parts, all thirty of miners dead."
Pirna Border Station
""Learn to be a pilot," my mother always told me. "Don't waste away in the mines," she would say. Ha -- look at this base, look at the pilots here: what a wonderful life I have chosen. Soon enough I'm going to make a mistake out there and then I'm dead. It's just a matter of time."
Leipzig Station
"Leipzig is surrounded by a sulfurous cloud that has accreted over centuries of industrial labor at this base. It is a byproduct of Daumann's works in this area. Sulfur is no longer released into space; instead it is captured and shipped as Fertilizers for Synth Foods operations."
"Red Hessian activity in this system is exceptionally vicious. Because they are pirates, they are plentiful in New Berlin. But because they were once Daumann employees, their attacks here are the most violent. This is where the Red Hessians began; the heart of industry, the heart of revolt. Hessians plague this system not for goods, but for revenge -- unceasing revenge."
