To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

A thread for anything at any point in time where empire building elements start being added to the game for now a ideas and suggestions features thread i guess. ( dont flame me ) just for discussion and ideas bouncing
I guess first question to ask is, are we only having human empires? I'd say yes. It side steps a lot of issues to do with technology, territory etc, unless we made the aliens approximately equal to our own tech...
That doesn't mean there can't be extinct alien empires though 🙂 I'm thinking of things like clusters worlds that were terraformed and/or have alien cities, space stations etc. Discovery bonuses could be paid for reporting them, or pirates could be using them as bases since they'd probably operate beyond the borders of inhabited space.
Oh and of course, although this is currently... "a lot like" a certain space game on the Amiga, it might be better to have multiple empires/human-civilisations rather than just Earth VS Imperial 😀
