Aye, its very doubtful that you will be getting anything from the Nomads. Things are really not that simple with them.
As for Planetform going terraforming? Like mentioned, its possible. Its just going to take a large amount of Roleplay. You have to make sure the planet won't be defended by another group, how the materials will get up there, and a very large amount of time.
Terraforming a planet.. Its a bit hard not to notice this. The Corsairs 'will' notice eventually.

Planetform is busy with the Planets they are currently working on. Also it's taking a huge Amount of Ressources and Time. Especially Time, so if this would happen we'd never see that Project finish.

Planetform doesn't need "new RP"(hell of a way to tell we need to be more attractive). We just need playaz. And the mod update. And we for sure don't need forced gameplay.
RE: RP Idea.. - Madvillain - 06-24-2013
terraforming under Corsair protection?
Unlikely since that will piss off their Gaian buddies.
Dunno about the Sails and Benitez , but TBH would most likely oppose.
RE: RP Idea.. - Skorak - 06-24-2013
Bretonia would oppose. Planetform won't do it.
RE: RP Idea.. - Rodnas - 06-24-2013
Actually Joey, i think the sairs would let anyone terraform that thing- as we are kind of fighting for a planet where we can grow food and live and whatnot...it would kinda solve most of the reasons the sairs are out for constant war and all that jazz...
But: no one will terraform this thing for the sairs, and everyone would realize the sairs would do literally everything to kick you out and off that shiny new terraformed planet( or simply capture it and kill you as son as a result is in sight)
At least that is my take...
Edit: and for the Gaians...if the sairs have much less pressure to even fly to bretonia, they can probably take a hit in their connection with the gaians, as the gaians need the sairs , too. Furthermore- it has been a while since any Gaians came to Gamma, so they might not even know what is happening over there, too

Problem is rather with Planetform working for Corsairs while their House has them listed as criminals.
Sure keeping things secret and all that jazz is possible, but very risky and expensive, especially with something that takes decades to finish.
I'd assume that Planetform would rather concentrate on Harris,Sprague and other planets that they're already working on instead of going on a crazy quest to make a planet for a group that is unliked in most of the houses.
RE: RP Idea.. - Rodnas - 06-25-2013
Yes , i guess Planetform has enough ongoing jobs to keep them busy for decades- and then i doubt they would come to the Omicrons, no one can be so blind to think he won`t help the Sairs by making a Planet directly next to their capitol habitable even if it is done via proxies or another faction....
Not to speak of nobody wanting the Corsairs lose reasons to harass the lanes around sirius!
RE: RP Idea.. - Hell Hunter - 06-25-2013
Reminds me of OZ: as they attempted to do what you thought. Except in Omicron Zeta
Aaaaand it failed. But I don't think planetform would venture out, as most have said, they're busy on sprague already. I don't think they want to help the Corsairs either. IT would be one hell of a struggle but why waste such effort for something that will inevitably fail? You'd probably get Outcasts, hessians, etc on your butt too.
Better off just having a station, or just an outpost.
RE: RP Idea.. - EisenSeele - 06-26-2013
I'm guessing you want said new planets to be terraformed for the Zoners?
inRP, it's doubtful that the same Zoners that wished to run from the shackles of house space would want to establish what amounts to a mini house by establishing colonies on two planets much less one - and pay exorbitantly to do so, especially since there are only a handful of Zoners living across stations throughout Sirius.
The corsairs, if they didn't stop the efforts in the first place, would just take over two newly viable planets that can be used for food production, as soon as they were ready - and it's unlikely that they'd be willing to allow for non-corsairs to establish habitable worlds deep in their space.
ooRP, it would be something completely inappropriate for what the Zoners are supposed to be (assuming that you're talking about having Zoners terraform the planets) - if I remember correctly, even Gran Canaria was controversial - as Jinx said before, the Zoners are supposed to be a faction that's looking to make a home in the fringes of space, and they aren't supposed to actually achieve that goal.
Having the order just whip up a nomad "reverse planet killer" or any other deus-ex-machina plot device would be nothing short of powergaming and supremely silly.
