Obolis Sub-Sector
The Obolis Sub-Sector is a region of the Charadon Sector.[1]
Overview
One of the key sub-sectors of the region, it is centered upon the Metalica system and sits at the nexus of three stable Warp channels. The Sub-Sector is highly industrialized and is known for its near-impregnable defenses. Its outermost "ring of steel" consists of the "Metalican Gates" of Rhodior, Brezantius, and Feiror. These Systems contribute to industrial output by providing Hive and penal laborers. Each of these systems also hosted void-monitoring stations and multiple spaceforts and are governed from a ruling Fortress World. Most imposing of their defenses however are a number of Metalican superweapons that allow them to engage enemy fleets at great distance.[1]
The remaining systems in the sub-sector are each valuable in their own right, with the Chromyd System serving as Metalica's link to the Barlech Channel Warp route and thus the Charus Sub-Sector. It also played host to a number of Agri-Worlds and Mining Worlds. The Gildras System contains a second Astropathic relay station on the moon of Kobolt, watched over by the turbulent world of Motulu, home of the Excruciators Space Marines. The Eladagh is a teeming population hub ruled by the Cardinal World of Alexistor whose Mandeville Point connected it to Thorlaf's Strait and the neighboring Lirac Sub-Sector. The distant Alumax System is a backwater troubled by Ork pirates but still produces its fair share of shockmined splinter-ores.[1]
