The idea:

1. Unrats have their own station/s and are a faction.

2. There are only 2 states of faction standing for this faction and that is either hate or like.

3. All players are Hate with this faction at the start

4. The only way to have "like" standing is to be triple KOS.

5. The Unrat station does not have TKOS due to altercations between players, nor is there faction standing loss unless the player improves standing elsewhere (lawless station) and the station sector is full of NPC unrats.

6.The station has player consigned products where players set the price of resell goods in consignment (suggested by skinwalker).

7.The station has "reverse engineered" versions of significant faction specific ships, each one requiring high license and hate with the associated faction (suggestion from Arkay).

8.The station has some high value manufacturing mission/part required for one of the new cap ship variants, increasing the danger of trying to produce it.

9.Players get missions to receive money from unrat hauls as a way to make income(suggested by SlashGorden).

+1 Sounds like fun. I always wished there was a mission at a corvus station to join the unrats when they appear.

+1 but will this "unrat station" supply more weapons to the game or will they have a system like latos but with cheaper prices?

demnicat open to suggestions.. clearly there should be something there of interest. Perhaps it could be a resource rich station but so full of unrats that you could never mine there without dieing. Think rare ores near a station.. but you have to be unrat like to access it.. we all know the unrats are a beast to deal with.. put 5 -10 of them in station sector at all times and it is untouchable without necessary standing.

possible addition to the suggestion for long term development:

An in-station player to player auction with in-station transfer of auction goods... the trade off is the station rent is extremely high, forcing the player to move the goods quickly or go broke.

+1

In addition, I propose that the only things for sale here are items that are sold. And the seller sets the amount with a percent markup to the buyer. So if I stock 100 AAPs at 7,000 each, maybe they sell for 7,700 each and I only get paid when they sell. A consignment if you like.

Added suggestion: if this even gets added and another player build-able capital ship should be released, if this station has no laws,SF or anything along those lines this unrat station should be a high Value manufacturer station to increase the risk of losing the high value item for the build-able cappie part.

excellent idea

I really like this idea!

There needs to be a way to not get shot by unrats, even if the price is high.

I am not Tri-KoS, and never want to be...
But this sounds fun

+1 and you'll need to share credits from unrat hauls so you can actually make money too.

This could work also with elements from the thread "reverse engineered ships from corvus" by arkay. Only due to the suggestion including having to trash your nation standing, I would extend it to not be a Corvus offering at all but part of the unrat faction.

The OP has been modified to add credits and suggestions from other players.

How about the ability to manufacture capships (or some version of them, just like with the idea of Corvus reverse engineered ships) there? An "Unrat" will have no access to conquerable stations.

wsad1234 This is in item # 8 more or less.. but "no acces to conquerable stations" is something I hadn't thought of, and could be a further penalty for going unrat if it is balanced well.

This really might actually make it worth it to become Tri-KOS on an alt.

Hope Inc is taking a peek at this thread.

The last time we had unrats, there was a mission to "join" them, and people were supposed to help them kill the trade bots. They didn't they just joined them so they could walk around grey space unmolested by said unrats, and it was basically pointless having them. I see this as no different.

From an RP point of view it is just like FAMY attacking VOID pilots and vice versa. They don't want other pirates operation on their turf either.

Unrats have to be nuisance for everyone just like the hive.

I would rather suggest
-you cannot join them.
- based on your tri KOS standing with nations you may become less of a priority target if there are better prizes in the sector anf if you're not escorting the voys.
-you still be a priority target if you fly a juicy ship, any atlas, marauder,centaur, moth, Goliath,trident: because booty!
