Zero G Construction

[Panzer]

Oh, yeah, I don't like it, I LOVE it

Will fit IMG ideally, remote bases in distant parts, yummie. Matter of making this work like clockwork.

1st: deterring price, for big clans only. 2nd: sizeable prospective profits.

I'd also add maintenance costs. Not too high, but constant and requiring attention. If a group fails to satisfy these costs, the base becomes inoperable. Abandoned. Later, anyone wishing to use it (anyone may) has to pay 50% the construction costs to get it back up.

These bases would need to be goods prodcers/dropoff points, elements of trade routes to make their construction worthwile.

What else could be done?

Not only bases, but trade lanes and jumpgates as well. Oh my, so may possibilities, this could really turn into an RTS.

Buyin a base, setting up goods production, commencing ship construction, upgrading the base to accomodate more production facilities... That much cash for an eagle fighter assembly line, that much for Albatros cruisers...

Goods price reduction/raise would also require a base upgrade...

And finally there would be more business in the empty systems. Disco may get much richer with this.
