Capsule: The fifth planet in the system, Dilga is the only world in the entire system that is remotely capable of sustaining life. Due to the heavy planetary industrialization, effects of war and the overuse of the planet's natural resources, Dilga's biosphere has been severely damaged - quite possibly beyond the point of repair. Without a constant flow of resources from outside sources, scientific estimates that the planet will be incapable of supporting life within a hundred years. The planet topography is unremarkable and fairly uniform, covered with vast tundra-like deserts. The only significant bodies of water are located inland as tiny landlocked oceans.

In addition to the uninhabitable deserts, a significant portion of the planet was devastated by a large scale tactical nuclear device. As a result, high radiation and scorched earth cover about 1/3 of the planet's eastern hemisphere.

There are only two major cities of note. The larger civilian sector, and a much smaller, more well defended military sector. The average Dilgan citizen is unlikely to visit the military sector in the course of their lifetime, due to the high security there. Some smaller resistance groups have settled in the desert well outside either cities sphere of influence.
