Overview[edit]

Established during the Second Succession War, the Turanian Transport Company is the largest freight service on Towne, utilizing cargo airships to more easily traverse the rugged terrain of the Eigophian and Gunderland mountains to transport copper ore and timber to the world's capital Port Howard for processing and off-world export. Holding an exclusive contract to transport the refined copper of Towne Mining, Incorporated, TTC is also a key element in the export of Eigophian mountain bloodwood, a beautiful and durable hardwood that is much prized throughout the Draconis March.[1] [2]

The Turanian Transport Company would also be a key element in Chandrasekhar Kurita's efforts against the Kokuryu-kai, Uncle Chandy purchasing both TTC and TMI in 3057 as an excuse to deploy the 17th Recon Regiment mercenary unit to defend his assets, in truth to foil the attempt by Kokuryu-kai member Jeffrey Kusunoki's Fifteenth Dieron Regulars to invade and take control of Towne to rekindle war between the Draconis Combine and Federated Suns.[1] [2]

In 3064, TTC broke ground on a new factory complex and division headquarters on the Draconis Combine world of Ludwig, the decision reportedly driven by a rumored agreement between Coordinator Theodore Kurita and Chandrasekhar Kurita that all of Uncle Chandy's corporate holdings must have a Combine based headquarters. As of 3067 the factory and surrounding employee city registered huge losses on Chandrasekhar's yearly reports, yet no expense is spared in its construction.[2]
