Planetary History[edit]

Lapida II was settled for its vast mineral wealth. The centuries of removing and refining those minerals and ores, combined with the lax environmental protection mandated by the Combine government, created a nearly toxic atmosphere. Despite this, the world remained a major manufacturing world with industrial complexes that created a variety of military and civilian equipment.[1]

The DCMS also used Lapida II as a logistical site, with several storage depots and refit centers located in the desert continent of Firesand. Unlike most deserts, Firesand draws its name not from the environment (which is actually slightly chilly) but from the strong ammoniac salts located there. These salts can cause severe chemical burns to unprotected humans.[1]
