(FASA Roleplaying Game)


One of the first extra-solar colonies established, Alpha Proxima II was the second planet of twelve orbiting a yellow star. The port city of Heliopolis had a population in excess of 3 million in the early 23rd century, and the planet had a total population of almost 12 million. Major industries included mining and farming, as well as sea-farming in the planet's major oceans.[1] Alpha Proxima II claimed one of the largest seafarming concerns in the Federation, with more than 180,000 square kilometers used for off-shore foodstuffs production.[2]
