News now of two new planets offering trading opportunities, and a puzzle aimed at new players, that will be coming your way soon.
The first of the new planets is a space station orbiting Earth. The Magellan space station is owned by the Magellan Society, whose listing you can read in the Encyclopedia Galactica at http://www.ibgames.net/fed2/galactica/magellan.html. Lying so close to Earth, and yet not directly under its control, this privately owned space station is a haven for business people wishing to avoid Earth duties, as well as a popular vacation spot.
The Magellan space station is open now for exploration, and you will find it SW of Earth. Tomorrow the economic operations will open for business: Armstrong Cuthbert will be offering cargo and Akaturi jobs to and from the station, and the exchange will welcome Merchants and Traders, as well as CEOs looking for a place to build factories. Magellan's economic level will be Leisure.
The Magellan Society are keen to gain new members and they have thrown open the membership challenge to all comers. The challenge takes the form of a treasure hunt, where prospective members are given a clue that points them to a particular location on a particular planet, from where they have to obtain an item to return before they can receive the next clue. To encourage newbods, the Magellan Society will tell Commanders and Captains what planet each clue refers to - higher-ranking players are expected to have done enough exploration to figure out where they should start looking!
The treasure hunt will be opening some time in the next week - look out for details on the electronic bar board.
Some time in the next ten days, the shopping mall known as Paradise will also open its doors to the public. More usually found traversing the spaceways, making only brief spots at other planets, malfunctioning ion drives have forced the vessel to take up orbit around Venus until such time as repairs can be effected. Paradise will also offer full economic opportunities, at the Industrial level.
