Unaligned Eritran planet Howharn, already customers of HCS weapons, have signed a formal agreement with the Clone Star Empire (East) and will allow the HCS to build a refueling point in orbit. The HCS will be allowed to station up to 4 warships at the station at any one time though it is likely that only 1 will be allocated to the station under normal operations.
Howharn is in a strategic location near the Free Eritran States and the central core of the Utrek Federation and thus it is likely to be home to HCS reconnaissance missions. One unconfirmed report states that the HCS may also place a listening post on one of Howharn's moons.
What Howharn will get out of the agreement has yet to be unveiled but it is thought they will purchase some Clone built warships (no doubt with a healthy discount).
