Hi all - I'm looking for some tips on a good Imperial system to use as my base. I'm only a couple of weeks into playing and my approach so far is to choose a system as my 'base' so that my stored ships are all in the same place; that way I am free to switch roles between trader/explorer/combat from a common home point. I had chosen 'Shente' as my base because it looked pretty good when I first arrived but, now that I am progressing, I realise that it doesn't have enough options in the shipyard or outfitting. My criteria would be:
- space stations close to the arrival pt (obv!)
- at least one each of agricultural and industrial for when I want some quick trading options
- at least one well stocked shipyard/outfitting
- Imperial control (personal preference)
- reasonable option for some bounty hunting when I fancy a quick blast of pew-pew
- NOT a 'popular' spot (rares, etc) so not too crowded
- anything else that I haven't thought of as a relative noob!
I'd rather sell up and move now before I collect too many stored ships and have to burn through sidewinders as shuttles just to move them!
Grateful for any tips.
