In early times of the CSF and the ASF there were numerous heavy battles in the System X-3043 and also in many directly connected Systems through the X crossroad. One of these really huge battles took place here in the Helios System. The result of it was inconclusive, if it can be called such a thing, simply because the losses on both sides exceeded 90 percent of the deployed forces. An extensively dense field of debris between the X gate and Planet Elton still reminds us of such a horrific event. In the end, both sides completely withdrew, and the System, which is very rich in mineral resources, came under control of the Bretonian Mining Corporation.
Nowadays, it is this System's ability to successfully mine raw materials for shipyards in X-3043 and the Wisemark Ore Refinery placed near Planet Eton, that makes it the cornerstone of the local economy. Visitors should however be warned that areas are controlled by numerous criminal organisations due the lack of a strong military presence. Mining companies, in an effort to reverse this negative state, hired large numbers of bounty hunters which now conduct numerous patrols in local space.
