Queensland system
Prison station Melborne
Planet Sydney
Planet Darwin
Brisbane Border Station

some ideas hope they help

No, Sydney Harbor, since, if I recall correctly, it IS a harbor.

Well all I have to say is Good ol state rivalry:Dsave it for AFL.

Lets put a bit of everything in for all people

System name Australia

mabey have two harbours

cluster 1
Shipyard and planet 1. Fremantle shipyard next to planet perth
Could have a border station called Alice Springs (mabey next to a jump gate goin to new london or in the middle if were dividing up the system map into states) or Port Headland
Have the shipyard owned by baf.

Cluster 2
BPA - Prison station Wagga wagga or Darwin
could have Molly an gaians sold here for a bomb

Cluster 3
planet Melbourne, Shipyard Sydney harbour
Border station Hobart (might have a hyper gate could go to leeds, Cambridge)
Off shoot tradelane to a station or planet called Wellington ( Capital for NZ home to Kiwi's)

Cluster 4
Station Barracks/ Academy: Canberra
Trading station Brisbane
Battleship HMS Sydney or Adelaide Baf owned parked near it

Off shoots
Cluster 1 offshoot
Kalgoolie BMM owned mining station stick it in a minable asteroid field ( make it spit out gold or diamonds or something)

Middle of the system map put a research station called Ares Rock, hide it in mines and asteroids.

There is a reasonable assorted list with bits from everyones ideas sorted into something workable.

whats everyones opinion of the list what should be added or renamed to cluster. The system could be set up with four major locations 2 minor locations 1 offshoot.

(A random thought is to have the 4 clusters with Heavy security lots of BAF an BPA Npc and then tons of mollies an gaians about the system)

I dunno if there's any reference to Australia or New Zealand being in the alliance, or having a place on the Bertonia sleeper ship. It may not make sense to add them to Freelancer.

But I suppose you don't need the people to make a base named after the town. After all, the Corsairs are Hispanian and have a planet called Crete, which last time I checked was in the mediterranean. I'd vote for an Asutralian or NZ named base, but not a new house/sub-house.

Alternatively, Bertonia needs more pirate factions. Australians could fill that role, being a country made from convicts and all:P
And ships with aboriginal (is that even a word?) influence. Those textures would be insane.

haha well the funny thing is people forget to mention us in many things:)so you never know we might have come on and well they either forgot to list us all or mistook us for Brits.
But I agree making a sub faction would be hard work so Just things with names and an australia system would be easier an suffice.:Dand if anyone feels the need they can Roleplay there Australianess in a character with a Big back story.

*sigh* foreigners....

Anyway - there a hundreds of place names in Australia that aren't British - those would be the places that use Aboriginal names.

-Signed- haha *Throws history books in NightHawk's general direction* Start reading matey there is a lot to learn:D

Just add a system named India, we all know that Bretonia is probably full of them anyways:P

They got replaced by Poles, all stealthy-like.

Hiyo!

Seriously, I dunno if this is really a brilliant idea at all. Not like Canada is in the right spot anyways... Liberty me arse!

If we're going to be adding odd things, we should make a Mexico system, with loads of LPI wandering along the one side, trying to stop the border-hoppers....

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Get the Poles in there! God knows Bretonia needs more public transport pilots!

You could line up LPI along the California/Cortez gate, stopping smugglers and stamping passports for visits to Curacao?

Sounds like real life.

'Hey, keep the border-hoppers out!'

[Koolmo]

Oh! For the "Canadian" Systems, there should be a new faction, called the "Draft-Dodgers", who run about with guns and ships and all that, but won't fight anyone but the LPI who wander in, trying to get them back.

Man, all the Liberty systems would get crowded. We'd have lines of Mexican NPC's sitting next to trade lanes selling food rations and sleeping.

Yea, but then the LPI would actually have a purpose! It's not like the mexicans will put up much of a fight, wheras the Vicious Zoner Traders require a few cruisers and some bomber support.

Does give me an idea for a new commodity, though. Could have "Tequila & Burrito", sold on the side of the tradelane for .5 credits...
