Does the UEE have a system or area where it does it's military testing? If so, is it something that is along the lines of 'Area 51' where it is an open secret/restricted area or is it something that is completely unknown to the general public? And is there a name for this place that you can share other than REDACTED?asked by Gundam
TL;DRA military testing area exists: Vili, a moon of Odin II where Behring tests experimental weapons, reachable at Rawley station, though visitors won't get far; other military areas are held back or redacted.
There is, but I'm going to hold off for a second. So, we do have a lot of systems planned out. We do have a lot of areas designated specifically for the military. Some of them you know about, some of them you will know about, some of them you... might not know about. Some are going to be accessible, you can go visit and do things there, and some you may not get the warmest welcome if you end up trying to land or get close to that system. That said, that's all there, some of that's redacted, there is the moon of Odin II, called Vili, that is a testing ground for experimental weapons. Technically, in the lore of the 'Verse, Behring applied technologies does a lot of testing there, and for those who are unfamiliar with that, go check it out. There's a really good galactic guide post about it. But in essence, it's the 'Verse's worst-kept secret, that this division of Behring basically does super secret, super awesome military weapons and testing and all that. So even though it's technically a private company, it's pretty much well known that they're doing stuff to advance warfare, to advance military components. Again, that's on Vili, the moon of Odin II. You can land there at a place called Rawley station, you're not going to get too far because of the secrecy that's surrounding it. So you could say it's, in essence, an area like Area 51, there's the knowledge that it's out there, I'm sure there're plenty of rumours as to what exactly is being done there. You could maybe drive up to the gate, but you definitely won't be invited in, and there definitely won't be a lot of civilian activity there. So if you do have an interest in that aspect of the gameplay, I would suggest maybe you go hang out there, or look into that a little bit.
Excellent idea. Definitely go knock on the door of the secret military base.
Yeah, just say hi. Here for a tour.
You're cool, just tell them you're cool, and they'll let you in. Always works.
