User:-AR-/Martial World

Martial Worlds were large military facilities of the Forerunner Empire, often being heavily-altered planets or wholly artificial installations of similar scale. Such worlds cemented Forerunner military presence across the known galaxy, and provided for the security of the Empire's borders and the systems under its control and oversight.

Martial Worlds served a wide variety of strictly military functions, housing command-and-control centers, training facilities, barracks, armouries, motorpools, airfields, and shipyards, as well as extensive living spaces for military families and expansive industrial manufacturing sectors for the mass-scale production of arms, ammunition, equipment, vehicles, aircraft, and naval vessels. They often possessed large domestic populations, and accordingly large percentages of Forerunner military personnel were of Martial birth.
