Omicron alpha is a pretty system, but the one before it, Tau-37, will make you think you've died and gone to heaven. There's a freeport there and an IMG base, but neither's missions will help you get in with the outcasts. A less friendly system, Tau-23, has Cali Base there... If you take missions here, you'll have to decide whether you want to be friends with the outcasts or IMG. Best bet is probably to get to Omicron, take missions to kill BHs until you can afford any weaps you want (The Kraken Type 2 in Omicron Beta is best in terms of hull damage per second), then get out of the Outcast sphere of influence. Beyond the Ripper mine launcher near the Unknown jump hole, there's little more the Outcasts can offer you that the Corsairs can't, and it's easier to be in with the Corsairs while keeping the rest of civilized Sirius happy.
