Game play suggestion using several existing game mechanics: Have the ability to build a colonization ship in the bubble ( similar to current space station building method). The player owned colonization ship could then be moved like a carrier using tritium to anywhere in the galaxy. Once arrived at destination the ship is "deployed" as an orbital base. Orbital base can process player collected/mined raw materials to fabricate components needed to build starports or planetary bases. Carriers have the ability to also carry colonists. Personally this type of game play, for me, would represent true colonization and challenges in colonizing vs simply expanding the neighborhood..... just a thought.... FGX
