SPGW Planets

## Introduction

*Main Page: SPG Warlords*

Planets are huge points of interest within the Gemini space. Currently, 16 planets are carefully placed across the area in order to emphasize strategic decisions. They are, depending on the game difficulty level, heavily defended but can ten fold your worth once captured. Assaulting an area with a planet might often be the last thing that you'll do, so think twice before you invade these hostile territories.

## List of Planets of the East

The game's fourth DLC expansion, Rise of Numibia, added a new region of space known as the East. It is the home of many factions, like Numibia, and Eastland, and is the size of around 30% of the normal Gemini map. Korkyra also has a presence in the southern regions of the East, with a large colony in Monrovia, the southernmost new region. The East can only be accessed by the custom map added by Rise of Numibia, due to the fact that the game engine cannot support a map bigger than the vanilla Gemini map. This land contains 4 planets and the only known moon in Gemini.

Like most of the easternmost planets of Gemini, Doma's location and living conditions are unenviable. But Doma's terraforming stuck, it has been reasonably populated and the population's thriving despite the situation. Eastland's rule over the planet has successfully brought Doma to the forefront of the East's retaliatory movement.
The large junkyard west of the planet is a decent indicator of the life and bustle on Doma, as well as the unfortunate condition in which the population had to work with what they get, not what's best. Doma's population works mostly in agricultural and livestock farming, but recent developments in Gemini created a large influx of military personnel and their families.
The planet is located in the heart of the Kasunga region.
 File:Gladstone.jpg | File:Gladstone Location.jpg | **Gladstone**, the only habitable planet in Gemini controlled by the Rogues. This planet was never conquered by any major faction, and even today, it still stands as a familiar crossroad for pirates and smugglers. Although it's not a very hospitable place, it was further damaged by the Rogues' multiple illegal weapons testing facilities and several failed terraforming attempts. It's not certain if they even tried to achieve something, or simply tried to make the planet so undesirable that any military force would continue to steer away.
Among all the planets in Gemini, Gladstone is the furthest one away from the two stars, easily noticeable by the low population count and the extremely harsh conditions surrounding the planet, as well as on the planet itself. Being as it is, Gladstone is still a point of discord among the Gemini factions, with the Rogues' most recent takeover of the planet from Highland's rule. Gladstone serves as a good reminder of how adaptable people are, but also how petty they can be.
Gladstone is surrounded by junkyards and nebulae, giving it a strategic advantage over incoming assaults. It is located in the northern Thabana region, near the border with the region of Kampala.
This habitable planet was among the last of Gemini's planets to be properly explored. Therefore, it is relatively less urbanized than many other worlds in the system. When the first Numibian task force arrived, Kalahari was already populated by outlaw groups, pirates and other groups of shady origins. The Regent of Numibia launched a planet-wide campaign to cleanse the world and bring order. The conflict lasted for more than a decade, but it ultimately ended with an overwhelming victory for Numibia. Kalahari became a new seat of power for the new faction, and its successful conquest announced the permanent rise of Numibia in Gemini.
The beauty of the planet, contrasted by the poor conditions of the people living on it, will forever be a picture Gemini holds in their mind's eye when looking back at what transgressed here.
The planet is located in the Numibia region, near the border with the regions of Nhiassana and Watopia.
 File:New Korkyra.jpg | File:New Korkyra Location.jpg | Following a long and bloody internal conflict in the former Korkyran Triumvirate, the state was divided and barely survived this struggle. The new nation of Korkyra was badly battered by the Gemini Wars and the civil unrest it suffered at the same time, so it had to regain strength and territory without starting a new war with any of the major factions of Gemini. So, they embarked to explore new, yet uncharted parts of Gemini. In the far reaches of the system, they found an unique planet that resembled their own homeworld, that had an unique feature: An orbiting Moon, the only one known in Gemini. The planet was named **New Korkyra**, and annexed to the officially controlled Korkyran Territory.
Some people say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", but Korkyra's imperialistic tendencies couldn't be thwarted, and they terraformed the sphere known as New Korkyra. Although It's not much of a place to look at except for its moon, with a low population due to its remoteness, New Korkyra is still a point of pride of their creators, as it signifies that their influence reaches even the furthest parts of Gemini.
New Korkyra is surrounded by an asteroid field, giving it additional cover, and is located in the Monrovia region. The region has two wormholes, one near the planet and its moon, and the other one just outside the Crispina Cloud.
 File:New Korkyra Moon.jpg | File:New Korkyra Moon.jpg | **New Korkyra's Moon**, in the terms of Gemini's unique landscape, is a very peculiar thing. While most planets in the entire discovered universe have at least one or more moons, in Gemini, almost no planets have one. New Korkyra is the first recently discovered planet in Gemini that actually has a moon. As a celestial body, this moon is pretty much like Earth's Moon back in Sol, with the exception of having a little more gravity, and more raw mineral resources. The Moon is mostly inhabitable, with small colonies being built mostly as attractions and military positions. There were rumours that this moon is also used for secret bases and undercover secret projects, but that has never been proven.
