Anyone know what determines the winning price? My last auction got all the way up to 800 million + before it was over

No idea. Fleet size or current resources perhaps?

I'm still bidding at 780million :shock:

Is there a benefit of owning a system in the game?

The satisfaction of having your name on a sector?

But you're basicly paying for empty space. No roids, no other stations (does GoD place stations in your sector?).

There's no roids? You're shitting me? That's completely useless then, you can't even set up a decent complex.

No roids, this is true. However sticking a complex in your home sector is a bad idea unless you want to lose ships or never stay in sector.

Your home sector is better off almost empty, bar ships, trust me.

I prefer to ssstick my HQ in the unknown sector next to getsssu fune. The Xenon in the sector next to it tend to keep away most of the insectsss who dare dissturb my RE and ssship building operations.

But that'ssss just me.

The sector does come with a station. You get the Trading Station. :)

Well, if you want that, just use SectorTakeover... It's more fun and you can pick a sector with fat 'roids!

There are some nice pirate sectors between Argon and Teladi space.


Just make sure you've got good defenses, those Pirate Osprey/falcon counter attacks are a B!TCH!!! :D

I'm yet to get the auction. Where exactly is the system?

You could always script in some roids yourself.

Just got with 780 mil.

Alas, 'Legends Home' is not the second L-word (after Light of Heart), it is only third. Have to press 'L' 'L' 'L' to get to "home". :shock:

My home has always been Montalaar. Just press L and the right cursor key. You get used to it :P

EDIT: DOh! And that's why I need I map :oops:
