New Content
Tech Merchantry
The ancient Empire used to have complete dominance over Stargate Construction Technology.
With the Capsuleers' rapid expansion into no man's land, the increasing need for transportation has made jump technology even more profitable.
In response to market demands, Upwell Consortium has announced that they will make their brand-new Add-on Structure Blueprint, the Ansible Stargate available for All Capsuleers to purchase.

The Ansible Stargate, like any other Add-on Structure, requires running power provided by the Corporation Outposts.
One Stargate can be directly linked to another 5 light years away, enabling direct teleportation between the two systems.

The Capsuleer just needs to anchor each one of them in two different systems, then link them and match after completion.
Fuel needs to be injected into the two Stargates in advance to provide power for the Stargate jump.
Unlike power required to run the citadel, this type of power will be calculated separately and deducted additionally based on the tonnage of ships passing through the Stargate each time.
Stargate builders can also charge users a usage fee to compensate for their fuel costs. The price is entirely up to them to decide.
