Ok, this is part of my upcomming factbook, but I want to put it out now. Ill incorperate this into it later. Feel free to comment and make constructive critisims:

Earth: Einhauserian Earth is a physical hell. Massive factories descend hundreds of miles down into the strata of the planet, and the entire surface is covered in a massive city. It is a perverse abomination born of a hive world and a forge world, an unholy union of pollution. The passageways are narrow, and the only real way to get around is to use the deteriorating maglev system that criss-crosses the globe.

The city extends into the filthy, sludgy water of the poisonous oceans in several places, where the water glows a sickeningly green color from the centuries of nuclear, chemical, and biological wastes pumped into it. Massive, half-mile thick panes of opaque glassteel cover the city, absorbing what little light breaks through the violent, roiling storms that rock the planet constantly, and protecting the ever-toiling beings beneath from the acidic weather above. Only soot-belching smoke stacks and the occasional starport break the pockmarked surface.

The air is thick with toxins, and only by pumping it through miles of filters can it become “safe” to breath. Even then, it kills most humans by age fifty. The water is not much better. In some places, it is so acidic that it is eating through the ocean floor. The poles have both melted, causing the water level to rise significantly. Huge planetary shield generators are located at each pole, projecting the void and energy shields that envelope the planet.

Outside of the city, on the surface, the temperature of the blood-red sky is well over a hundred degrees Fahrenheit, while inside it is kept at a steady 78 degrees. That is, except near the factories, where glistening rivers of molten metal is forged into the machines that make life possible on this hell-world, and hundreds of millions of thankless workers toil.

Overhead flies the massive shipyard that creates the vessels that ply the stars. It is protected by twenty-nine orbiting space stations equipped with ship-killer weapons batteries, and powered by their own fusion reactors. A massive minefield surrounds the planet and its moon. The mines are semi-intelligent, and can tell the difference between friend and foe, although if a vessel strays off of the pre-assigned route, they will still be destroyed, no matter who they are.

Luna: The moon is a dedicated defense station, covered in weapons and garrisoned by millions of crack soldiers. Most of the surface is dedicated to anti-ship weaponry and starports, where hundreds of thousands of Einhauser’s fighters are kept and maintained.

Mars: Mars is a forge world and a marine base. It posses nearly the same defenses as Earth, with orbiting minefields, anti-ship satellites, and a fortress moon. Unlike earth, however, this planet is not polluted, and still has abundant mineral resources, which it uses to maintain the three orbiting shipyards, and keep a steady flow of supplies to Earth.

Jupiter: Jupiter is a naval base. Massive factory stations orbit perilously close to the swirling surface. They use tube-like voidshields to pull gas up to be refined into ship fuel that is then loaded onto the docked vessels. Each one of these stations packs the explosive equivalent of one hundred million nuclear bombs, so for safety reasons they are located well out of range of each other. Another minefield blankets this world and its surrounding moons, and once again the killer satellites are present.
