Farpoint

__NOTOC__
Farpoint is a planet in the Alnitak system. It is controlled by the Republic.
== Description ==
Farpoint, on the northernmost end of human space, is a rocky desert planet home to a Republic Navy base and not much else. Farming is possible only within greenhouses, and this system is too far from the galactic center to be desirable for trade or industry.
Lately the Navy base on Farpoint is growing, because it has become the new home of the Navy Oathkeepers, a small branch of the Navy that has sworn to stay uninvolved in the conflict with the Free Worlds. (If the Oathkeepers are founded)
== Spaceport ==
The spaceport is the Navy base; there are no other settlements. There are a few pubs filled mostly with off-duty officers, and a quartermaster's warehouse where you can trade goods. The most striking aspect of the base, however, is how empty it is. There are enough buildings here to make it feel like a small city, but only one small corner of the port is in use; the rest of the buildings are boarded up. And there are enough landing pads and hangars to house perhaps a fifth of the entire fleet, but they are nearly all empty at the moment.
The massive scale of the fortifications, coupled with their state of near-total disuse, puts you in mind of the fabled Maginot Line on Earth - a relic of an anticipated battle that failed to materialize according to plan.
