Place your secret base.

Fri Aug 06, 2004 2:51 pm by Zapp Brannigan

If you could mod a base into a server anywhere you like, keeping it relatively hidden so that no one else has a decent chance of finding it, where would you put it?

Keep in mind traffic patterns and accesibility. A tiny border station way out on the far-west side of Tau-37 may be a good spot, but there's not a lot to do around there.

Also to keep it interesting, no bases 500KM off the edge of the map, or 100km "above" the normal plane of the system.

Anyways, I would put a nice little retreat in the dark debris cloud in New York near Pittsburgh/Maine where you attacked a certain criminal base during one of the early campaign missions. IMO it's perfect - visually concealed and no real reason to go there, but still close to the hub of Liberty.

In the wonderful gas cloud in Honshu, tucked behind the minefield.

Not much reason to go there, close to the NT jump gate, and reduced sensors...

Well to tell you the truth I've often wondered about this same idea. Being the Dark matter freak I am I placed my "secret base" in one of the Dark matter clouds around the Raiden bend in the Gallileo system. Perfect place to attack transports and their escorts. Of course I'd probably run a fleet of pirate mercenaries.

I'd put mine hidden in the zone 21 minefield, with a little pathway to it like the alaska jump gate.

On the otherside of Omega 11 on the shade side of the dying planet it will cover maybe your base and protect you from the sun but I know that it wouldn't last forever then but hey who gives a ....

I'd put a little station like Rochester right where Benford was in New York. I love the badlands.

On the edge of the nebula in Omicron Alpha, the nebula with the jump hole to Unknown System in it. It would be at least 20 K from that mysterious planet.
