I dig this concept. It'd be nice to see a Gallic corporate giant reaching into Sirius to dip it's fingers into the proverbial pie.
If ship building is on the agenda for a source of RP, perhaps you could market Taureau Assault Transports to Rheinlandic and Kusarian companies. Those things look tough on paper, though I've never even seen one in-game.
Another idea: Initiate talks with Rheinland about having Daumann/Kruger engineers working in tandem with EFL to power ships with oil as an alternative to MOX. Oil is your thing - sell it! It's also an excuse to introduce more uniquely colored engines into the game. With Jump Drives having their system limitations removed, Rheinland and Gallia's corporations could coordinate freighter-fleets carrying oil in order to entirely bypass the Sigmas, in case the GMG-Rheinland conflict boils into open war.
