Description

Crucible Station is a orbital prison found in orbit of Sian's moon of Nuwa. Created for House Liao's Maskirovka, the station serves as interrogation and high-risk security prison. Built in 3060s, the station serve to solve the Maskirovka's problem preventing prisoners deem dangerous to the state from escaping its planetary-based facilities.

The station's battalion of marines secure the facility from being overwhelmed by its prisoners. Each of the station's inmates are incarnated in their own solitary cell, which also serves as interrogation chamber for station's personnel.[1]

The station's is defended by wide area of Extended Range Large Lasers, Small Pulse Lasers and short-range Missile Launchers mounted in all of its arcs. The weapon bays heat is managed by Crucible's 150 Double Heat Sinks, allowing multiple weapons bays be fired from different arcs.
