Sherman is city built atop Ulysses Peak on Cascom in Castra System. It was formerly a primary launch point for the heavy bombers that would maintain a constant vigil near the jump points into 希安 territory. A majority of the base has now been demilitarized for civilian use, transforming the Navy's landing pads and mechanic bays into the primary landing zone for traffic entering and leaving the planet.
Locations
Depending on the time of year, you may see what appears to be a landscape of clouds shrouding the surface of the planet. Poking up through that canopy will be Sherman, a virtual island in the sky.
Quick note: you enthusiasts will also probably notice a lot of firepower on your approach: anti-ship batteries as well as a pair of AOV-9 anti-orbital cannons. They may look old, but don't try to be funny. They still work.
The military sold off the landing zone. It changed hands several times over the years until it became a parking lot franchise owned by Reezus Thorn, who also handles the site's minimal ship repairs.
As one of Sherman's new primary functions is a quick stopover point for travelers, they cluster a lot of their stores near the Parking Lot, allowing pilots to quickly hit up the local TDD office as well as familiar names like Fuel Pump, Hardpoint Guys, 启示录军备 and Element Authority and be on their way. But there's a lot more to Sherman than that.
Walking among the unmistakable Hennowistic military prefabs of the 27th century, you can't help but feel a sense of history. Small reminders of the men and women who served here can be found throughout the zone, but none more prominent than in the Edge of Oblivion. The Edge is a small pub filled with actual memorabilia from the era, offering patrons a brief glimpse into the daily lives of the bomber pilots who ran those dangerous missions.
Before you leave, you should go to the outlook. During the day, if the weather's right, you will find a tumultuous sea of clouds stretching as far as the eye can see. At night, you can see the glow from distant cities seeping up through the clouds, creating diffused pools of light. It's one of the most magnificent sights to behold on a planet whose history is steeped in fear and aggression. But don't just take my word for it; it's really something you need to observe for yourself.[1]
