New Tridents and Deneb
Just throwing this out here.
We've all been clamoring for the new Trident variants for awhile. I'm sure they will eventually come. To this end, I would like to suggest (and partially linked to the map redox thread), that Deneb become central to the building of them. Grey space has its stations and it's trident. The names suggest a Serco and Itan versions. Siepos and Prosus. Why not add a station or two, or convert the two fogged stations in Deneb into manufacturing stations for these new dents. Base the conqurability on these to the Deneb conflict.
Either access for a week for whichever nation wins for the week via most claimed sectors, or daily by how many claimed by each nation. Non-aligned characters (uit) would have to pick a side to get access to the nation specific dents. It could be based on a reputation value. Say for something this significant, national POS. After all, wouldn't someone flying a Serco Capitol ship not be friendly at all with Itan?
This would have two main effects, it would make Deneb far far more active. It seems like a waste as it is. Also it would remove some pressure off of the grey stations. As it stands, the largest conflicts in the game base around the grey conqs as the trident is the current emd-game. As it stands, this isn't bad. With possible steam and gear VR releases, and the subsequent swell in playerbase, it could grow to be too much.

Despite usually hating suggestions taking manufacturing out of grey...this idea has merit.
You get a +1 from me.

I've said something similar. There should be a path to making trident parts for mobile F2P noobs. They should have to sub in to complete the build and fly the trident. At least FCP and FFSA.

-1 to making Deneb related to dent building.
Player built dents are "knock-off" versions. The Siepos and Prosus hives may reside in Serco and Itani space, but the Nations already have the "proper" trident. TTS/TTP are variations of the trident, but still knock-off models.
+1 to Serco/Itani getting nation specific "proper" dents though, which the TTS/TTP could be copied/retro-engineered from.
+/- 0 to moving some of the build missions away from grey and into red/blue space. This seems a cool idea, but the missions would need a logical reason to be in restricted territories. I would leave the final build at Latos M-7 though.

I dont know where to stand in this debate,
Serco has the seipos have and itan has the prosus have
The Ttm is a knockoff of the TPG trident light frigate, and TPG is a Uit member
So Serco.should have a seipos trident
Itan should have a prosus trident
And Uit should use TPG stations to build a TPG trident.light frigate.
For any tri Kos players, the should be the exsisting conq stations for a miliniar trident.

Interesting - having the station open to only the winner of the war would help encourage play there and provide an actual reward for a players effort.
Seems like a decent Idea.

after rereading this a couple of times, I +1. While actually moving the manufacturing to deneb seems counter-intuitive (heavy-scale manufacturing in a warzone?), making it dependent on the war results is a good way to pull players further into that kind of conflict.
