Dossier #116 - Champagne Scouting Report
Last updated on 10. November, 819 AS.

System overview

System is relatively large. It contains a colonized planet and eight Gallic stations. Solar objects - medium blue and blue dwarf. Obviously this system is a seat of power of the Council group and their allies. Estimated value for Nación Maltesa is medium: water is available, there are an asteroid fields able to provide cover for a base, can be a part of "north" trade route due to concentration of hostile forces in one half of a system. Hostile patrols are abundant within system, though no capships spent defense BS were detected so far.

Known jump connections:
Jump hole (2 B) - Artois (Dossie #113)
Jump gate (5 B) - Burgundy (Dossie #115)
Jump hole (3 D) - Burgundy (Dossie #115)
Jump gate (7 G) - Lorraine (Dossie #112)
Jump hole (4 F) - Lorraine (Dossie #112)

Areas of interest

Planet Marne
Owner: The Council/Gallic brigands (pair of docking complexes are available)
Location: 6 F

Terrestrial colonized planet. Two sets of docking equipment are available. Orbital survey of the night side of the planet allows to estimate a presence of highly populated areas with large industry potential.

Chalons-en-Champagne Station
Owner: The Council (most likely)
Location: 5/6 F

Chalons-en-Champagne Station orbits plant Marne. It contains a dry-dock and able to provide repairs or possible even produce capital class vessels. Considering observation that the Council is the only group spent Navy able of usage of capships, it's most likely that all that Chalons-en-Champagne Station are belongs to them.

Battleship Chaumont
Owner: The Council
Location: 6/7 G

Defense Battleship stationed to block Lorraine gate, backed up with a pack of weapon platforms, should be avoided at all costs.

Joinville Base
Owner: Unknown (Union corse probably)
Location: 5G

Asteroid base hidden within the ice nebula. Corse patrols can be found within nebula.

Courville
Owner: The Council
Location: 5 B

Looks like a wreck of guard station used to control Burgundy jump gate. Station defense systems and weapon platforms still online.

Mazagran Depot
Owner: Unknown
Location: 6 C

Small staion on the orbit of Planet Sezanne. Ownership and purpose are unknown. Further investigation needed.

Epernay Station
Owner: Gallic Brigands
Location: 3 C

Large and well equipped Brigands base in the central part of the asteroid field. Weapon platforms form a defense line between Epernay and Burgundy jump hole.

Reims Station
Owner: The Council (probably)
Location: 5 C

Industrial facility.

Montmirail Base
Owner: Unknown
Location: 6 B

Hidden asteroid base. Base location is somewhat strange, more suitable for a hidden raiders base. Considering fact of the Councils full control over system, thats look odd.

Notes

Trade lanes throughout a system reinforced by weapon platforms. Lots of wrecks can be found all around the system.
