Welcome to the Imperium Navy's Depot Corridor Blog.
This blog discussed the Imperium's Navy and
it's Depots.
The Imperium Navy hubs management and supply activities through Sector Depots like spokes in a wheel for each Sector. Every naval fleet operating in the sector will have resources and leadership at the sector depot. Each
Subsector has numerous Navy bases
of Numbered Operational
Subsector Fleets and Numbered Reserve Fleets.

The revised history of Depot Corridor (DCORR):
Historically,
Luung during the Rule of Man, Ekluug to the second Imperium and renamed
Camh Ranh by the 3
rd Imperium. During the Rebellion locals began calling it Enders, after the explorer and founder H.A. Enders.
Before the Rebellion, the Emperor has just completed a secret, TL16 upgrade experiment of this Corridor system to create the first Grand Depot. Essentially, this meant the Imperium duplicating
bases and support throughout the system and improved defenses. It also created a string of support bases with caches in adjacent
parsecs. After the Emperor's brief, inaugural visit Depot personnel were stunned by the reports of his assassination after his return to Core Sector.
During the Rebellion this depot was so pivotal to the fall of the Imperium many maps listed it as “Depot”, as though it was the only one. In fact, after the fall of sector capital
Kaasu, the sector command retreating to the sector depot in parsec 1511. With the mighty Imperium Corridor Sector Fleet revitalized to full operational levels and moving to join Lucan's Vengeance Fleet, the Depot, embarked on a fast, "ramp up" project for the Reserve Fleet. At this crucial moment, while focusing on managing the Reserve Fleet and addressing millions of civilian refugees, decimation came with claws, when the
Vargr invaded the system with a "never before seen" 500-ship cruiser and corsair fleet. Caught off guard, the newly upgraded facility lost most of the system resources, including the Depot Security Fleet and retreated to the
mainworld, Corridor Depot Prime. Hard Times left the Corridor Depot
mainworld assets, negotiating a supply treaty with Vargr forces to reduce the loss of life and remain independent.
The Virus, the Aware, violated the worlds of
Corridor. Virus failed to penetrate
Depot Prime defenses which had been designed with restricted communications and an array of meson sites. The rest of the depot system
worlds had been gutted by the Vargr and we're easy for
Virus to pulverize.
