It is the 1105th year of the Third Imperium, and PCs will begin the campaign on Rampart in Reft sector 3030. It is a high technology (TL 15) world with a class A starport with a population of under 10,000.

It is a small garden world inhabited by the super-rich, who own huge private estates. The only 90% of the population work for them, but also live reasonably well. The starport mostly serves their needs, but is a good destination for expensive luxury goods. Several of the inhabitants have shares in luxury shipyards here, which also have a need for specialist imports.

There is a naval base nearby, which has an agreement with the planet to allow shore leave to a small number of islands.
