Well... there's always options. Since Red Photon and Blue Photon are so wealthy, they could be out looking for new advanced ships to help in the fight, AI mercenaries. which opens it up to basically any faction, any ship. Or if there is a third faction added to this, it could be the Zaphragi who want to rebuild their once great empire but need to build some wealth in order to do so.

Maybe one Photon uses their vast wealth to enlist the help of Ur'Qa ship designs, while the other Photon enlists the help of Zaphragi?

Both races can take the angle of wanting to get some extra cash to help rebuild their empires, or practice combat without using their own resources, etc.

That would be great! I was thinking tech 17-20 UZ/Bana ships (preferably really useful slave ships). Ive always wanted to be able to have a couple of mini mastodonte slaves. For bana these new ships would be epic...

Since they are so rich, maybe they bought technologies from different races, and used it along with their own to create some interesting ships. More ships, woo! /like

Yeah, I'm beginning to really like this. I just wish there was some way for PvP to be involved... :(

Like an open war zone, some PvPvE in this biatch lol.

I like the mission variety already proposed, but if its truly an economic war also, then you could get even more creative.

Have some trader type missions, but where you have to move something ridiculously heavy or huge, that might require a thatch or gelato or something. Missions where you have to sneak in and mine or prospect some newly discovered ore, that takes like 5 mins to extract, all the while under constant threat of attack from patrols. You could even get real creative and have a micron race type one. Where you have to buy/sell and haul some commod between multiple AI's bases as many times as you can in a short time, through hostile territory, in order to try and "crash the market" inflicting economic damage on the opposing faction, etc.. Seems like a lot of room for cool things here.

But above all else, please do your best to make this content repeatable and useful no matter what. The same way Prospecting and DGs are useful no matter what.

Post Re: The Magellanic Layer
Just a small update, I haven't had much time (basically none) to work on this or incorporate any of the ideas that you guys had because of the universal reset happening in less than a week and also my job. But I should have some free time to work on this tomorrow! So if you have any ideas get them in! I might also post some pictures tomorrow of the ships one of the other devs made for me along with the UV maps if anyone wants to take a swing at some textures!

Thanks for all the awesome ideas guys! If I like them and other people like them then I'll do my best to get them into the suggestion some how!

Ok! So far I have two ships built and two AI bases picked out. The textures on the fighters shown are just some I made as holder textures.
Just copy the links for the download in the pictures' comments!

I don't know, try and increase on the map size a bit? It's just a bit...small for territories, especially the main war zone (Planatia)
