Geonosis
Geonosis is a world in the Wild Space sector of the 25th Anniversary Community Patch for Star Wars: Rebellion.[1] In the patch it fills the map slot that holds Tund in the original game.[2]
Details
The patch lists its geology as planet, hot, arid, deserts, mesas and mountains. Its species are listed as Geonosian (native), Acklay, Massiff, Nexu and Reek. Its economy is listed as raw materials, battle droids and tech. It sits at grid reference R-16 and has 5 hyperlanes.[1]
History
Geonosis undergoes major shifts to its political and military circumstances. It had played a key part in forming the Confederacy of Independent Systems, but after the Clone Wars its power and influence were largely drained. The Galactic Empire took the planet, imposed harsh rule, and converted its droid factories to Imperial purposes. Imperial occupation also brought more military installations, which tightened its grip. Even so, pockets of resistance survived, and some locals carried out secret operations to weaken Imperial control. The Geonosians, famed for engineering talent, were still exploited for their technical skill, and their formerly prosperous society struggled under occupation.[1]
