Alongside my Great Repaintening, I wanted to exercise other creative outlets - thus, the Havenesse Spiral sub-sector. I envisioned it as a personal slice of the galaxy where I could lay out campaigns, stories, and so on. The Crusade/Narrative way to play should have been right up my alley, and really helped build out the sub-sector, but it never quite gelled for me. Perhaps the new edition will provide a spark?

++++Sub-sector Description++++

The Havenesse Spiral: a sub-sector of the Charadon Sector, located in the Ultima Segmentum. The primary system is the Meneter system, a convergence point for a few stable Warp Routes, and thus a waystation for Imperial shipping traveling along the Scutum-Centaurus Arm between Balor and Schindleghiest; this is the Gateway to the rest of the Spiral. Following the Spiral brings the traveller to the Xundaenia 4P7 system, hosting a minor Forge World (aligned with Metalica) tasked with keeping the Spiral supplied. Continuing along the Spiral takes the traveller to the Utis system, site of an apparent planetary cataclysm, as indicated by a vast asteroid field in the habitable zone. The last inhabited system of the Spiral is the Ipra system, recently colonized by the Imperium, drawing settlers from Meneter and Xundaenia 4P7. The only other notable location in the sub-sector is the Lomia system, in close proximity to Xundaenia 4P7. Lomia would ordinarily be ignored by the Imperium and the Adeptus Mechanicus alike, but for the presence of the Space Hulk Spire of Desolation.

Approximate distances: 45,000 light-years from Holy Terra, 15,000 ly from Macragge, 7,500 ly from Metalica
