Enclave

An enclave in a strategic position of the universe, usually a planemo. Its special condition is because it has a symbolic value for humanity or produces some of the rare resources.

Solar systems with enclaves are very valuable. Enclaves are always controlled by a consortium. At the beginning of the game, it is an NPC consortium. Once the players create a consortium and have a quantum gate headquarters, missions are available to attack an enclave.

The controlled enclaves generate prestige that is distributed among the factions that control the enclave. In addition, the same amount of prestige is added to the consortium, raising its position in the ranking. The more important the enclave, the greater its bonus.

If an enclave produces a particular resource, a percentage of the sales profit in the Stellar Trading Network will be apportioned by the factions that control it. Enclaves can also provide access to some type of special object, such as the [fuselage] or Orbital bastion.

Some enclaves allow exclusive access to unique objects to the factions of the consortium that control them. These items will be available for purchase in the Stellar Trading Network. Some special objects are the Fusion rifle or Capital base.

Conquest

Enclaves can be controlled only by a consortium, so their invasion can not be performed by an individual faction. You can only attack a cache by a consortium mission, created from headquarters.

The invasion procedure has two phases:

• Space combat between offensive and defensive fleets supported by space stations in the enclave.
• The planetary combat between invading troops and defenders.

Defensive battle stations are a strong defensive bonus that can decimate a good part of the attacking fleet.

Once the space combat has ended, there is a previous bombardment that reduces the defensive bonus of the enclave troops. This reduction is proportional to the firepower of the attacking fleets.

Enemy defense

Once a consortium has made an enclave, it will be under its control until another consortium makes a successful invasion. Although every enclave has at least one battle station that protects it, it is wise to leave a support fleet and contingent troops as a defense.

Members of the consortium can use any quantum gate to move to an enclave under their control, or move between enclaves. When a fleet is traveling from or to an enclave, it disappears from the galaxy and is only visible from the enclave screen.

When a fleet arrives at an enclave, it deposits all the troops that transport in him. In order to be able to collect the troops with a fleet, it is necessary to select them before ordering the return of the fleet.

Enclave list

	name	prestige	defense	production
	2095 AB-200	10	+20%	50%	It is a dwarf planet of the constellation of the swan. The anomalies in its orbit made scientists suspect that something inside it destabilized its gravitational field. It is currently the most important source of graviton in the universe.
	Ancapolis	20	+200%		Ancapolis was built as the first enclave with a free, decentralized and open market organization. Society operates through voluntary exchange between individuals who live in small but interconnected small communities. Each settler is a trained and heavily armed militiaman who would convert any attempted invasion into a high-cost enterprise.
	Betelgeuse D	20	+20%	25%	Betelgeuse D was the first planet where there was xenobiomass. Since then it is an enclave of research and production of this resource.
	Beura	20	+20%	25%	Beura is a system rich in its star resource, beurite. Numerous mines are distributed by its eight planets and moons, belonging to several companies that form a cartel.
	Dikarya	10	+20%	50%	Dikarya was the first planet where life was found outside the Earth. Its surface is largely covered by a type of fungus that survives in a very extreme environment. Its exploitation is the basis of a lucrative industry.
	The Ring	10	+20%	25%	The Ring is a spatial structure formed by remains of stellar dust orbiting a collapsed star that formed a black micro-hole.
	Ispahan	20	+20%		Ispahan is the largest Muslim state in the universe. Populated only by believers of the Sunni branch.
	Moon	50	+100%		The Moon is the most important financial and commercial center of the universe. It is the headquarters of the Stellar Trading Network.
	Mandalapur	20	+20%		Mandalapur is a settlement that received a massive immigration of ethnic settlers. Its population is the largest in the universe.
	Mars	50	+100%		Mars is the second most important planet after Earth. It was the first planet to be colonized by humanity. On its surface there are huge colonial and research complexes, among them the data center that contains all the knowledge of humanity.
	Neutronikal	20	+20%	50%	Neutronikal is a station that is in the system of a neutron star. It is strongly protected by being one of the main suppliers of Neutronio of the universe.
	New Whitby	20	+20%	50%	New Whitby is a famous mining station in a dangerous asteroid field. Pilots are very trained to navigate and it has been the grave for many creatures that are unlucky or too intrepid.
	Palax	10	+20%	25%	Palax is a planet fractured by the body collision that surpassed 40% of its mass. Its surface is very irregular and unstable, and its core was exposed showing an important deposit of graviton that would have been otherwise inaccessible.
	Pluto	50	+100%		Pluto is the planet where the first quantum gate was built and from where the first extrasolar missions were launched. It is one of the biggest industrial centers of construction of ships.
	Prokarides	20	+20%	25%	Prokarides is an asteroid that was part of a gigantic planet that was destroyed by an impact 275 million years ago. In one of its tectonic trenches lives a type of extremophile microorganism whose growth is impossible elsewhere.
	Prosperity	20	+50%		Prosperidad is a project of social paradise created at the beginning of the XXII century. In its beginnings a society was implanted in which all its citizens enjoyed of multitude of rights. The system was sustained initially thanks to the voluntary contributions of its first settlers, but once the initial funds were consumed and lacking a solvent production system, there was a terrible economic crisis that caused the government to fall and an economic system of free market.
	Proxima B	50	+100%		Proxima B was the first colonized extrasolar planet. It received a massive immigration in the first years of the colonization space. It has excellent infrastructure built by the first settlers.
	Sagir 5	20	+20%	25%	Sagir 5 is next to an unstable black hole that emits intermittently jets of exotic matter. The place is extremely dangerous, so in times of stability, it is used to collect valuable material from a nearby station.
	Sweet Ann	10	+20%	25%	Sweet Ann is the name that the explorers put to one of the most inhospitable planets of the universe. Its color is black as coal, its volcanic surface, hot and unstable; and its dense, dark atmosphere. In spite of everything, there is an intense mining activity due to its important deposits of Beurite.
	Thethis B	20	+20%	25%	En Thethis B fue hallado un almacén que tenía una antigüedad de 8.5 millones de años, muy anterior a la aparición de la especie humana. Entre gigatoneladas de material inservible para nosotros, se han hallado lo que parecen pilas de Plasma Lambda. No se ha detenido su extracción desde entonces.
	The Earth	100	+200%		Earth is the cradle of humanity. It is the most advanced and decaying planet in the universe. It remains the great cultural reference and political center.
	X1X	20	+20%	50%	X1X is not a planet, but the code name of a research project that sought to dig a tunnel to the core of an uninhabited planet and produce a thermonuclear detonation that would generate a controlled fracture of the star. During the excavations were found the largest Lambda Plasma deposits in the universe.
	Yigs-Kai	10	+20%	50%	Yigs-Kai is the name of a space station located in a huge asteroid field known as "The Great Kai". It is the largest known reserve of Beurite of the universe.
