This mini-series details the worlds of Trojan Reach and nbsp;sector that might be visited during the Pirates of Drinax and nbsp;campaign. The material in this book is set in Sindal and nbsp;Subsector of the Third Imperium universe, but can be and nbsp;easily transplanted to other regions or any game setting and nbsp;that follows the general standards and assumptions of and nbsp;the Third Imperium.
The Torpol Cluster is the name given to three worlds in Tlaiowaha subsector which all lie within jump-1 of one another. Three worlds is a small cluster, but these three are important as they provide a link between the Wildeman Cluster and the Sindalian Main (by way of Marduk), which permits jump-2 traffic to transit from Imperial space to the territory of the Florian League.
Traffic bound for the Aslan Hierate also comes through and nbsp;these systems as an alternative to the Wildeman Cluster/Borderland Cluster transit.
The cluster sees a fair amount of internal trade, with and nbsp;ships plying between ports in the same system or and nbsp;jumping within the cluster. Through trade is extensive, and nbsp;with Torpol acting as a stopover and liberty port for and nbsp;many ships that come through. The cluster might thus and nbsp;offer rich pickings for pirates, though the presence of an and nbsp;Imperial trade route makes this a potentially and nbsp;hazardous undertaking.
