Houses expanding - Vasuv - 09-17-2011

I was thinking if houses can expand their lane networks & build stations they contract a house corpration & then build up stations & ageria for lanes they send money for the lanes & in the next update or mod the admins can add the lanes or stations & by stations i do not mean player owned stations
This can also be applied to many other factions like GMG,CR,oc,sairs other major factions


faction that needs to build a stations contact a company & collect for the project money also or they can them self build them up--->contract is awarded to a company it then starts aquiring supply & deliver them to their or house owned bases bases-->they pay admins money & station or lane is builded up in next update or next mod


every one can do this may it be houses or small or large factions can also be
& the stations constructed should be permanent no one can blow it up

Well, look at .86 - Player constructed bases, that can be blown up.

Why not permanent ? At some point the systems would be spammed with bases and due to the'controlled' equipment dealers, trade would wether be abused or incredebly nerfed.

Same for TLs, would get abused ALOT, travelling would be too easy then.

CR, oc, sairs other major factions...

Lolno. None of those factions are getting Gate/Lane Networks.

Not without a lot of credits, and then some more.

As for the four main Houses; only Kusari is getting more Jump Gates in 4.86.


As for more bases; all I have to say is Player Owned Stations in 4.86.

The Gallics have them. Developed them on their own.
The Outcasts and Corsairs actually have access not only to various bits and pieces of alien technology, but gate parts themselves, and they could always enslave some techs.
It would be perfectly reasonable to assume, given a lot of resources, effort, and time, they could develop/steal/copy a lane or gate.

Gallia developed their tradelanes from bits and pieces of TL technology brought in by the Junkers.

As for the OC's, perhaps they could take advantage of the Lane Hackers for that sort of thing. But I don't see the Corsairs piecing together what they'd need to make TL's.

Other more lawful groups might be able to. The IMG, or CR might be able to sign a contract with Ageira for that sort of thing, but it'd be costly.

i like how you didnt include your ageira sig in the first post;)

buuut where would they expand? maybe sigmas or upper taus? everything else is either too dangerous to perform such operations or the houses would yell 'ANNEX' at each other.

look at hokkaido. 20 years since vanilla - no finished trade lanes. and those are just angry women.


as for corsairs, i dont really see why we should build lanes for 40k-wide systems xD

You are confusing Echo 419 with Echo 7-7, nub. :rtfm:

And old samurai waiting in ambush behind some space rock.:P

Firstly, I don't think the Corsairs/Outcasts even have needs for gate/lane technology.
Secondly, I don't think they have ways of maintaining them after they're completed.

Sure, it's feasible and a logical way of evolution, but not in any near future that is.

The Outcasts and/or Sairs don't have enough plot-hook-magic to get anywhere remotely near what Gallia has done.

I assume that's just because of dev laziness/ignorance/not caring.

However, the situation is compensated for in 4.86 by finishing that Gate pair (though linked to Rishiri instead of Chugoku), and then another Gate set from Rishiri to Nagano.

Who knows, there may even by completed Trade Lanes in Hokkaido... or heaven forbid that poor, lonesome incomplete Trade Lane in Tau-23 which is about to take a hammering from the GRN steamroller.
