' Wrote:Less complex? Oder shipyard is perhaps 3-4 km in size at most. You're talking about a station spanning the diametre of an entire gas giant. That is a size of over 10,000 km at least. It would be infinitely more complex, not to mention all of the Outcast nation would probably be hard pressed to crew a station this big.
I still maintain that the construction of such a station would likely bankrupt Liberty many times over, never mind the Outcasts.

Also, Rheinland has the smallest military of all the houses in Sirius. Yet still powerful enough to defeat a Corsair invasion. Yet the Corsairs are pushing into Outcast territory. What does that say about Outcast strength? Sorry for derailing, but I figure some bubbles need to be burst here, some degree of scale preserved. It's hardly a free for all in a mod where we want to maintain at least a marginal state of realism. Nothing in Sirius is a vast interstellar empire with enough resources to build such a station, which is why I am protesting.

As Boss said, it is not a gas giant. It is a tiny planetoid. This thing is exactly the same size as The Ring, but with less "complex" areas. The ring just happens not to have a planet in the center. Freelancer size is a bit lulzy, but we have to work with it and assume it's what the sizes are really like.

Rheinland... hello? It's a military nation. Last time I checked, its military, while not the largest, is more powerful than most. However, my point was that Rheinland is the least wealthy of all the houses - according to infocards, they were in a recession if not a depression even before the war - yet they can somehow build the Ring without hurting themselves at all. Why, then, shouldn't the very rich Outcasts be able to build a similar, less complex version?
