Improving the Canadian Systems idea - ivr56 - 01-26-2008
Here are my ideas
NOTE: I forgot which comes first when in Colorado
Ontario
Add trade lanes leading from Colorado to the Ontario JH. but replace JH with JG
In Ontario add Trade Lanes coming from the JG to a planet
Make the planet dockable and call it planet Toronto. With a city background.
Sort or like Carnia in Omega-49 but without that music, something liberty sounding.
Add goods so trading there is worth while
Create a shipyard above the planet or separate from it with TLs leading to it
Add Trade lanes coming from the shipyard to the Alberta JH, switch out JH with JG
Add NPCs, Interspace, Spa and Cruise, Lane hackers, Liberty Rouges, etc
Alberta
Put a TL system going to the Yukon JH, replacing the JH with a JG
Create an ice/asteroid field perhaps
Making the stop over name the Calgary ice field perhaps.
Add a lane hacker base hidden in the field. Where LH NPCs and Liberty rouges operate out of
EDIT: You have to go through Alberta to get to Yukon. Making the alberta system a perfect system for LH to set up shop
Yukon
Create it an independent system. perhaps owned by IMG. A mining system
An ice field that covers most of the system. (Yukon is in the northern part of Canada)
TLs leading from the JG to a Freeport in the middle of the field. Buying/selling diamonds and buying food, etc.
To me this sounds like a great way to improve a group of systems we have but which are completely empty and lifeless.
These additions add life to the completely dead sysems
Thanks for reading, Please Comment

Instead of constructed lanes....
Lane projects.
Similarly, Gate progects, with DSE and/or Ageria bases.
A massive DSE project, funded by the economic superpower that is liberty, because the taus are a mess.
And make the settlement on toronto look small, fresh, like a colony.
Basic materials instead of processed goods, when it comes to commodities. These are colonies we are talking about....Mercantilisim!

I like the idea a lot!
Perhaps time for a new faction??
RCFP?

I like your ideas about Alberta, but Toronto isn't the rainy city in Canada, more snowy and grey. High rain planet would be something like Vancouver in the British Columbia system. I think the concept of a hackers base there in the Calgary ice field is great though. I realise I may be nit picking a bit but, heh I'm Canadian so I consider it my duty to set things straight.
For that matter I wouldn't mind seeing a B.C. system along with some related content. But over all, good ideas man, at least in my opinion.

And the Canadian systems should be Bretonian, not Libertonian...:dry:

I'm a little confused as to why there are Canadian systems in an American house. Then again, I also feel quite offended by the fact England gets New London, Cambridge, Manchester and Newcastle all to itself, and both Ireland and Scotland get shorted with planetless Edinburgh and Dublin. Putting Glasgow in the Edinburgh system would get you the same reaction as putting Canadian systems in an American house.

Uh...this is why I suggested they be DSE/Ageria projects funded by Liberty: Regardles of Earth politics, Liberty is the only House that has funds for expansion. (Kusari too, but Kusari is expanding)

Bretonia was expanding into Harris...
I can see BMM being engaged in Canadian named systems if they weren't heavily populated, posssibly with Planetform too.

Yarr! Agreed! Putting Glasgow Outpost in the Edinburgh system would be worse than in Leeds! (I'm personally of the opinion that Glasgow should be a shipyard however, for historical reasons, the Clyde's shipyards being the biggest on Earth for a significant time period.)
The Welsh also got shorthanded, by the way... but I don't really care about them...:P

I live in Virginia, and think that the real earth comparisons are offtopic.
