EO primary industrial manufacturing city. Rare-earth processing, ceramics, PMC equipment production. Workers on rotating contracts. Output feeds the entire EO PMC network.
The Urals became the EO's industrial backbone after the Moscow Compact consolidated private manufacturing under oligarch control. Ural Forge is not a city that was planned — it metastasized around extraction and processing operations until it became unavoidable.
PMC equipment, ceramic plate armor, autonomous platform components — most of it touches Ural Forge before it reaches the field. Workers rotate on six-month contracts. Nobody is meant to stay long enough to have opinions about what gets made here.
