Owner History

Planetary Info

Alya was first settled for its mineral and fuel resources. The planet has a hostile atmosphere, and as such cannot grow crops in the soil. To survive the Alya's residents use hydroponic farms to grow their crops. Making things more interesting for the residents is the presence of a large gas giant in the outer orbit of Alya's primary star. The immense gravity from this gas giant affects all the members of the Alya system, resulting in an unusually complicated day/night and seasonal cycle.[1]

Despite these challenges, Alya's rich petroleum resources have allowed local plastics and petrochemical industries to thrive. The refined fuels produced on this world can be used in any number of internal combustion engines.[1]

A mixture of Word of Blake troops and Blakist-employed mercenaries conquered Alya in a two-week campaign fought in mid-May 3069 using conventional means; Alya was then incorporated into the Word of Blake Protectorate.[16] In late August 3075 forces from Clan Ghost Bear arrived and launched a campaign to liberate the planet, ignoring all hails from Draconis Combine forces.[18][19]
