|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ☀ | Old Amber | Sun | M4V | 0.0 | (0.0, 0.0) | — | — | A steady amber star chosen for its predictable output. When you're outfitting expeditions into the unknown, you want your home base to be the one thing you can rely on. Rimmers call it Old Amber — warm, familiar, and always where you left it. |
| ● | Basecamp | Planet | scorched | 1.0 | (1.0, -0.3) | — | — | The Outer Rim's most populated world after Frontier itself. Expedition headquarters, cartography institutes, and the Pathfinder Guild's archive all operate from surface installations. Everyone here is either preparing to leave or just got back. |
| ⬡ | Deep Range Outpost | Station | — | 1.5 | (1.5, 0.2) | — | — | — |
| ● | Drydock World | Planet | arid | 2.0 | (2.0, -0.3) | — | — | Ship maintenance and long-range refit facilities. Exploration vessels get stripped down and rebuilt here between expeditions. The orbital yards are permanent; the ships passing through never stay long. |
| ◈ | Deep Range Mineral Fields | Asteroid Belt | mixed | 4.1 | (4.0, 1.0) | — | — | Rich deposits of carbon, vanadium, tungsten, and platinum. Self-sufficient by necessity — the Rim doesn't import what it can mine. Expedition crews stock up here before heading into the void. |
| ☁ | Deep Range Vapor Fields | Gas Cloud | molecular_cloud | 5.5 | (5.2, 1.7) | — | — | Thin argon pocket harvested for shield maintenance and atmospheric processing. Not rich, but the Rim wastes nothing. |
| ❄ | Deep Range Cryobelt | Ice Field | kuiper | 6.8 | (6.8, 0.2) | — | — | Water ice cracked and processed for expedition stores. Every long-range mission starts with a stop at the Cryobelt. |

Bases & Stations
1Deep Range Outpost
OuterrimMultiple systems running on emergency reserves. Lights flicker in the corridors.
The Outer Rim's real secondary capital. Where expeditions are funded, outfitted, and launched into the unknown. The Outpost looks like Frontier's younger sibling — same jury-rigged aesthetic, same indifference to building codes, but the docking bay is bigger and the charts on the wall are more current. If Frontier is where Rimmers live, Deep Range is where they work.
Station Log
You dock at Deep Range Outpost. The Outer Rim's real secondary capital. Where expeditions are funded, outfitted, and launched into the unknown. The Outpost looks like Frontier's younger sibling — same jury-rigged aesthetic, same indifference to building codes, but the docking bay is bigger and the charts on the wall are more current. If Frontier is where Rimmers live, Deep Range is where they work. The station has the following facilities: - Power Grid: Distributed power generation with redundant feeds and surge protection. Redundant feeds maintain voltage across every section. Surge protectors stand ready, and output exceeds demand. - Habitat Core: Comprehensive environmental management supporting larger populations and diverse species. At least, when supplies hold out. Sensor arrays flash yellow warnings, some habitat zones show declining air quality, and filtration membranes need replacement. - Fuel Distribution Center: High-throughput fueling infrastructure with pipeline distribution and reserve tanks. Not anymore. Pipeline pressure fluctuates, reserve tanks are dangerously low, and the facility struggles to meet demand. - Restoration Works: Industrial repair facility with automated hull assessment and multi-bay operations. At least, when supplies hold out. Automated scanners are offline, technicians assess damage by eye, and wait times stretch across multiple cycles. - Commerce Hub: Full-service trading center with dedicated broker terminals and escrow services. Today, though, broker terminals cycle through error screens. Escrow settlement is backed up, and traders argue over stale quotes. ...and 19 more facilities.
