Orbital Spa & Cruise

[Coin]

have always thought that OSC should involve more smuggling - they have high end clients, with expensive tastes. imo, cardi, blood diamonds, artifacts, gaian wildlife, all the good stuff should enjoy high prices on their four bases. yes, osc has just four bases. shetland, hawaii, baden and curacao. is there any other faction so under developed? obv, they were thrown in as background, and nothing has been done to improve their lot.

buffing the sell prices would see more osc tagged indies flying around, and more smuggling would give police factions something to do, rather than be secondary to military forces.

the osc restriction on corsair bashing should be balanced with a similar one for corsairs - "may not attack osc id'd players in the sigma 19 system"

in fact, rply, it would fit that corsairs would DEFEND osc ships, cos they're the corsair's fences for artifacts. buffing the artifact sell price on the hawaii would encourage this

anyway, the long and short of it is, i support this attempt. now, lets see some roleplay, some passengers being transported with food, water, holotainment bands, tobacco, wine, lux cons goods, (weapons?)

and less indys in liners transporting gold ore. declare the ships as stolen if they are caught working as transports? you wouldnt use the QE2 as an oil tanker....
