As
the Prydian civil war rumbled and then began to roar its way across
the Prydian Precinct there started to emerge a need for more
structures. While the Seorc Compono Guild (SCG) revolutionised rapid
settlement construction with the Habitation Dome Riser System (HDRS)
the hugely successful 'Hab Domes' were still time consuming to ship
across the core systems and beyond and also to assemble once at their
destination. Added to that the twin arising demands for structures
suitable for friendly atmospheres (non lethal) at a lower cost and
the increasing numbers of war disposed and the pioneers of SEORC put
their minds to the challenge. Ubiquitous Rubbacrete and Golglass
were too heavy and expensive (titanium alloy being at a premium) and
there was no need for towers and landing pads this time.
The
solution lay in the Kabeatan research station on New Glastonbury. At
the northern pole this station sat atop a deep dig into the ice. The
workers, fabricators and seekers who resided there did so in a little
used SEORC design; the Geo Shelter. The Geo Shelters were made of a
thin titanium alloy skeleton with a dense carbon weave fabric
stretched over it. Resistant to cold but simple and durable these
structures were used as Accommodation and as Storage was well as for
Laboratories with purpose made components added to them to suit their
functions. There was even a Defender version armed with a Moth 88
Rotary cannon in a turret mount a defence against roving packs of
Darga which ranged across the tundra. These SEORC Geo Shelters
fitted the bill and a massive fabrication plant was founded.
While
lacking the more permanent facilities of Hab Domes the SEORC Geo
Shelters were shipped out in their millions all across the Precinct
and used by patrolling troops of all sides in the conflict as well as
by researchers. But the biggest beneficiaries of the SEORC Geo
Shelters were the normal people who had lost everything in a war that
was seemingly ever lasting. Anywhere you travel in space you will
see these structures in all their variety.

stations during zombie outbreaks plus many more. Here are a couple of
scale shots for your enjoyment. The first shows a Geo Shelter with
an IAF015 Hab Dome (since so many of you already own one or
more..thank you!) and the second a Geo Shelter with an AIAF03
Betrayer (15mm tall) next to it and the third with a Yellow Adder Combat Lifter:
We
think that the SEORC fabricators guild have come up with something
really nice and with varied use within The Ion Age and also way
beyond it too. Excellent Value and very useful. Thank you for your
support of all of us here at The Ion Age in allowing us to pursue our
dream of a space opera future that is wholly its own.
