Deleting those gates in Conneticut to Alaska, would be good thing, then all who ant to pass from NY to to border worlds would have to go trough minefield that sometimes gets confusing, but that is good thing. Couse number of ships passing trough there would decrease becouse it is not safe as trough Conneticut
Even with the Alaska>Connecticut jump gate last release there was never really many traders doing that run, all the time ive spent in gamma i bet ive only come across 15-20 traders in about 3-4 months.
actually its not such an easy run, - it allmost sounds as if its a milkrun to go from crete to manhatten. - but there is the maldava cloud, which can be quite a pain, then there are occasional nomad raid groups, and they can easily chew through a transports shields - ( now even easier cause they have CDs finally ) - then there is delta, minor, alaska - and no tradelane. calling it an easy run is a bit too much.
additionally, one should be on good terms with corsairs and order - and gotto avoid the police in alaska ( well, that one isn t hard, cause there s hardly ever a lawful scanning there ) - with the keepers claiming delta as theirs - it might even be more difficult.
i think its more than justified to bring back the old route ( well, its decided to get artifacts to crete again ) ...
today, i visited crete again with Jinxs? ship, looking for .. well basicly anything to buy......... found nothing. i would have bourght even oxygen i guess if i could have made at least a little profit with it - but everything thats for sale there is sold at red prices.
sooo, hurray for getting artifacts back to crete ( maybe remove them from casablanca - or at least make them more expensive, - i don t think the hessians would care much )

Sorry for going of topic but when did they claim delta as theres? everytime ive been there the keepers don't come close, then they either jump back to iota or log of.
Didn't the infocard say that Crete was supposed to be rich in mineral resources? Maybe give them Niobium or Deuterium or some kind of profitable metal, as well.
I suggested a long time ago... but if some thing can be done, I would like to see Handicrafts added to crete.
Not all corsairs are pirates. There are families that may be weaving the stuff into custom items that are chesrished on the major houses. Not as much as Artifacts but atleast to make it worthwhile.
475 @ crete
990 @ Newberlin
1170 @ New London
1290 @ New Tokyo
1450 @ Houston
And May be change Houston as the most profitable location in Liberty.
