x3AP player HQ location suggestions

Post by Skillzfire »

so im at the point in the game where im close to getting a HQ, (getting 3 laser towers for the plot)

so my question, i was thinking of putting my HQ in getsu fune ( mainly for the music :D ) but i know its kinda risky with the Q's and all that, i want a sector that has a good view/music and is relatively unoccupied (no avirice please!)

thanks in advance
Death is not a hunter unbeknownst to its prey, one is always aware that it lies in wait. Though life merely a journey to the grave, it must not be undertaken without hope. Only then will a traveler's story live on, treasured by who bid him farewell. But alas, my guest's life has ended, his tale left unwritten

most people use the Unknown Sector next to Legends home because nothing is there...well sometimes there might be a pirate base

I use Harmony of Perpetuity due to the music. Also, what better to place to hide a military buildup than in Goner space!

I destroyed all presence of the Paranid in Cathedral of Xaar and placed my HQ and it's self-sustaining, resource producing, megaplex there as well.
1940s - Various "computers" are "programmed" using direct wiring and switches. Engineers do this in order to avoid the tabs vs spaces debate.

Twisted Skies was my Baby in TC, and I kept it that way in AP.

At 1st, I was miffed b/c the Split have claimed it, and I have their crap everywhere.

Now, I realized I have extra defenses, a local military base, and when I'm ready to start my galactic takeover, after Xenon and pirates are wiped out, I'm ready to start with the Split :lol:

Unoriginal I know, but I've stuck mine in Queens Retribution because of the
shipyard and because Atreus in Queens Harbour does jumpdrives.

Eventually my HQ is going to be producing ships and I like to be able to
equip them moderately easily.

X to X3 is MENU SUPERIOR!
I think Egosoft has already worked out our doom, because Xenon AI will reach the stars! :D

I chose Spires of Elusion, the music and the view there, and each zone east is choice. It seems like the perfect spot to me because:

You have each race (-Terrans, but Megnir for them) with 300% suns 1 -2 jumps away (split in Twisted skies takes a few more ecells). Each of those sectors has mega resources for ship building, and I fly my ships to the Boron Eq dock first on their way to Getsu.

Also, my Gate hub connects to the west gate + Elena's Fortune and Preacher's void, makes pretty easy travels + Terracorp HQ for jump drives.

Put it anywhere mentioned then complete breaking grounds and choose the move to new/your sector option.
