Ammolia star system

The **Ammolia star system** is an uncharted and uncolonized star system in Evochron Legacy.

## Summary

Named after the colorful and shifting surfaces of its planets akin to the gemstone ammolite, the system itself has far less variance but as much potential with several bio-rich planets to study, dissect and sell with industrial mining worlds to support them.

At first the wide empty space and fickle asteroids might turn away many investors to settle this system, but it is far from a nightmare to colonize. The inner two planets have an asteroid field to resupply a jumpcaster trade network. Further a central trade station between the three right-side planets and the asteroid field further south, allows reliably mantis drive trade and with some effort even fulcrum. This then offers local traders supplies for jump casters to fuel a trans-regional economy in return for some time and cargo space. The main advantage is that Sapphire lacks both industries for the region. F465 would be the obvious capital as it has the nearby asteroid field in its orbit.

Akin to the Petalia star system this system is far closer to star systems in neighboring regions than it is to the central behemoth of the Sapphire star system and core of the local region. As such it can not be considered as part of the Sapphire cluster and a potential trade hub to the neighboring region.

There is little doubt that Petalia is the better option to colonize for both industries with more and easier access to asteroids for more planets. However, Ammolia is closer to the Sapphire blacksite "Hoth" and past the Sapphire wormhole to Al's Quay. With auto-pilot and a mantis drive, this can be a fair argument for Ammolia. Ammolia is also the only one of the two with an asteroid supported core structure for inner fulcrum trade.

Ammolia is easier to start a colonization, Petalia is easier to finish.

## Location

The **Ammolia star system** is in the south-south-east of the Sapphire region and offers a decent bridge to the nearby region which stars are closer to it than its own regional center.

## Opportunity

* Accessibility: 4/5
	+ Jumpcaster range to Sapphire and Thuban, nearby wormhole to Al's Quay
* Regional Value: 5/5
	+ Both industries are needed
* Effort: 3/5
	+ Ringplanet with asteroids for easy start, small Fulcrum distance core with one economy, rest beyond mantis
* Autharchy: 1/5
	+ Most economies missing, no energy production, no general tech production, no high-tech equipment production
