Seizing the Means of Production

Not long after Lord Siv Korho struck a deal with the Besadii crime family, the Mogoshyn Garrison was deployed to Sleheyron. Securing the Tibanna Gas refineries would be instrumental in furthering the goals of the Crim Imperium. Rothana Heavy Engineering required a near constant flow of refined Tibanna Gas in order to keep starship development on schedule and Sleheyron’s proximity to the Triellus Trade Route deemed it a perfect source for the coveted gas cannisters. The recent unification of Imperial Remnants was a sudden but welcome change for Imperial held worlds that had teetered on the edge of destitution for the last decade. This operation was to be held up as a shining example of cooperation between Imperial Remnants.

The convoy of Mechanised Infantry Division rolled off the Gozanti Cruisers and sped towards their destination: Besadii Mining Town. It was to be a joint operation between the Mogoshyn Army and the Rothana Remnant's Navy. While the navy was busy securing each of the floating refineries above the clouds of Sleheyron, the army was down on the surface, preparing the workers for their relocation. The Hutts had let miners remain down on the surface with their families while they were not under contract. It was decided that in order to reach the new mandatory production levels the Empire required, all contracts were to be extended indefinitely and the miner’s families would now be housed on one of the discontinued refineries. A CrimSec intelligence report had suggested that workers were less likely to go AWOL if they had more of an incentive to complete their assignment. Holding their loved ones hostage 1.9 Parsecs above the planet’s surface was deemed a sufficient enough incentive.
