Taurus Territorial Industries

Taurus Territorial Industries Logo

Taurus Territorial Industries is the largest weapons manufacturer on the Taurian Concordat.

Overview

Geared towards offensive and defensive weapons production, TTI was created in the late 2700s and is heavily subsidized by the government.[1]

While briefly eclipsed by the Trinity Alliance born creation of Detroit Consolidated MechWorks, with the formation of the Fronc Reaches TTI has regained its position as the premier weapons manufacturer in Concordat space. In recent years the company has sold significant numbers of Thunderbolts and Warhammers to the Outworlds Alliance's Alliance Military Corps and obtained a license from the Capellan Confederation to produce a new version of the Wasp. [2]

Taurus Territorial Industries is the largest of all Taurian weapons manufacturers, and its fanatical defenders are well aware of the firm's importance to the Concordat. Unfortunately, not even they could prevent the Fighting Urukhai from damaging the facility and completely destroying the factory's Hatchetman line. The entire factory complex remains non-operational at this time, awaiting crucial repairs to the building’s structure.

Many more of TTI's production lines were destroyed in May 3074 when a series of asteroid struck Samantha, Taurus' capital city. [3] Hansen's Roughriders also attacked and seriously damaged the production lines on Sterope in a retaliatory strike. [4]

Taurus Territorial Industries manages three separate complexes on Sterope; an aerospace assembly plant, a conventional vehicle manufacturer, and a small shipyard.
