An idea...

[Grumblesaur]

Could you make different bases for different ship types? So it'd move you to a different base for a Liberty carrier than a Rhineland one? That way (if there was a bar) you could add news stories from the respective House (although rumours would be a no-go; it'd pre-descide people's RP and eliminate special RP with carriers)

I was thinking more neutral sort of thing, but you could have rumors and bribes based on reputation.
If you're neutral, or have a freelancer tag, rumors and whatnot would be random.

Nice to see I'm getting a bit of constructive criticism, though, I can't really construct anything.
