Repeat, will there ever be a commodity dealer on Toledo?
This question is in combination with another matter, have Order valuable traderoutes, beside the Deuterium?
Ofcourse, Order get supplied by Zoner and in rare cases by Corsair and independent Traders, but a safe supply can only be established by an Order Supply Division relying on selfmade gear.
I simply ask, because for 4.86 i'm working on a light fighter (concept was already presented) and a strong, but not uber freighter sharing design elements with the light fighter. Order also may use transports, but i think freighter advantages to transports are more useful for Order.

I think that Toledo should have a commodity dealer that pays high amounts for Nomads as research subjects, and should pay rather high for them. More than Cambridge, at least.

Its a bit of a pain to code a commodity dealer onto the Toledo planet scape, but is entirely possible. As for nomads being purchased there, I can see that happening, but they would never be higher than the value at Cambridge which is further away. It would be a gaping hole in the commodity balance system.

There are already enough order carriers in Minor, you'd think that this feature will attract more... You know, NPC farming and all that.
But indeed, there is a need for a commodity dealer on Toledo, I mean they don't have to sell anything, but at least give us the ability to supply their planet.

Most of the seasoned order players RP it out as Isis having more security for dealing with cargo shipments and such. We dont want traders and/or smugglers landing on our 'home' planet, so we have them dock at Isis - where a security detail can keep constant track of them during their stay.
And, if an infestation occurs due to a trader or anyone else bringing living nomad specimens onboard (knowingly or otherwise), it's better to lose one battleship than an entire planet.

@Tenacity: Sounds reasonable.
Are there any valuable trade runs to conduct by Order players, like Gold from Bretonia, alloys and ship hull panels from Rheinland, engine components and H-fuel from Kusari? I mean ships are not built out of nothing. Plus some rare stuff like ores, minerals etc. in return?
