Typically it is at least 150% the size of other territories on the world. If there are several continents, this territory will typically take up most or all of a continent. (If it is a Waterways territory, it is a large sea or a true ocean.)
                >Mountain Range: Extreme Temperature: Extreme heat or cold pervades this Territory. If the Planet already has an inclination towards one extreme, this territory is even worse in that regard, more extreme by 20° to 40° C.

(If it is a Waterways territory, it is a large sea or a true ocean.)
                >Mountain Range: Unusual Location: In most cases, Territories are located where local conditions would be most likely to create the relevant base terrain. This is the exception, whether it is a forest in a frozen polar region, or a wasteland surrounded by verdant fields. This Territory exists where it does not belong and perhaps where it should not be.
                >Mountain Range: Boundary: Boundary mountains are very difficult to cross. They bisect a continent, separate two other Territories, or bisect a single other Territory into two almost-unconnected pieces. Passage across the boundary will be via a small handful of traversable passes - or they may have no passes and only traversable by air or around the ends.

                >Wasteland: Desolate: This territory is harsh and unforgiving, even by the standards of Wastelands. It has no oases, natural springs, or other potential sources of life or easier conditions. Survival is even harder than in a usual wasteland, and it is impossible to find water here.
                >Plains: This plain or waterway is rich with nutrients and excellent for life. Local flora thrive her and are particularly abundant and vigorous. An area like this is likely to be a primary source of an Organic Compound Resource, if the planet has some, and it also often makes for a useful agricultural outpost.

            >Heavy: Air so thick it is crushing. Any dangers from toxic gases are more severe, and breathing the dense, heavy air is stressful, preventing unaugmented humans from getting proper rest.
            d10 for its composition

            Damn shame! Woke up too late to participate in the earlier rolling. I love how it started as a system of garden worlds and you all rolled for hellish wastelands

            There’s still plenty of rolling to do friend

                Another uninhabitable planet. To the outer reaches. 5d100 for what’s on the edge of this system

                Rolled 94, 30, 94, 61, 23 = 302 (5d100)

                Hopefully I found a spot to roll in

                >Spaceship Graveyard: A number of dead ships, floating in the void. Roll on the Graveyard Origins table to determine how they got here, and add an Archeotech or Xenos Ruins Resource to the graveyard, split among D10+2 small caches spread across the dead fleet.
                >Asteroid Cluster: A denser, cohesive group of asteroids, usually the remains of a shattered planet or moon. It is confined to a small volume but is a serious navigational hazard within its extent. It also has D6-1 Mineral Deposits, either within the asteroids or in the remains of ships destroyed trying to navigate it. Pirates often use these as cover.

                >Gas Giant: Usually not a useful planet directly, but frequently home to rocky moons which could be much more promising. Use the Planet generation table below.
                >Asteroid Belt: A thinly-spread ring of rocks which may have once been a rocky world. This poses a minor navigational hazard for all travel in its Solar Zone, and has D6-1 Mineral Resource deposits.
                Interesting. 2d100 for the origin of the ship graveyards

                >Wrecked Battlefleet: Whichever side fielded these, they lost badly, and all hulks belong to the same force. 2D6 ships, most or all shattered beyond any value.
                >Skirmish: Wrecks from a small battle, from two different sides, drift here. D6+2 hulks, all heavily damaged but possibly sturdy enough to salvage.
                3d6 for wrecked ships/space hulks

                > Planetary Rings(Dust): A wide ring of fine particles circles the planet. This isn't a hazard to navigation, but does make sensor readings noisier. If this is rolled multiple times, enlarge the rings rather than adding more sets of rings. Sensor readings get progressively harder as the rings get larger.
                > Planetary Rings(Debris): A narrow band of asteroids or chunks of ice extends out around the Gas Giant. The spread is limited enough that they can be avoided with a short detour, but if the detour is skipped, navigating them is like navigating an Asteroid Field system feature. If this is rolled multiple times, increase the size and density of the rings, making the needed detour longer and the navigation through them harder.

                Looks like that’s it

    Damn shame! Woke up too late to participate in the earlier rolling. I love how it started as a system of garden worlds and you all rolled for hellish wastelands

    This was fun OP. I got the inspiration to make a system myself in parallel, and now I plant to run an Admech explorator fleet game plundering and exploring this new system.

    Have a good one mate.
