WELSH POWER!

Us Welsh folk deserve a system in Bretonia. Hear me out:

England is represented by New London, Leeds, Newcastle, Cambridge, Inverness, Salisbury, Manchester, Poole, and Chester. Scotland is represented by Edinburgh, Lewis and Orkney. Ireland is represented by Dublin and Londonderry. But where is Wales? All we have is Cardiff Mining Facility in Cambridge.

So why has Wales been forgotten in Freelancer? I don't have a clue. But, as this is Discovery, we can change this! We can bring Wales back into the loop!

My first idea, rename Cardiff Mining Facility. We don't even mine here anymore! It should be Merthyr Tydfil Mining Facility. Or Merthyr Mining Facility. My second idea, give Cardiff a system. It is, after all, the Capital of Wales. Make it a system like Newcastle - large and with lots in it, but not necessary to pass through if you are moving through Bretonia.

My final idea, give Powys a system. It is the largest county in Wales by far, and borders England. Maybe a large system with a few pointless planets and a few jump holes.

These ideas would restore the balance. Although I still think we should rename Bretonia to Cymru. ;)

Welsh system yes, Newcastle like no. That system is a menace, but something like the Edinburgh system would be good, undeveloped with only a few bases in it.
And random Planets? who likes them, they are good in Pennsylvania for some first hours of exploring, later they are only spots of colour.

Thankfully, Wales was eradicated long before the events relating to Sol and Sirius and war something-or-other, so there was no need for representation as far as I know.

Looks like there's no 'sneaky sneaky' sleeper ship for the Welsh then, which of course, the French are to blame for.

I take offence to that!

Scotland and Ireland have their own systems, but they didn't have separate Sleeper Ships. So why doesn't Wales get some?

Isn't Bretonia full of unused systems as it is? Do we really need more of those? I don't think it is all that necessary.

Besides, who cares about the Welsh anyways....:P

I could say the same about the Portuguese.

And we need them because Wales should be represented. And they don't have to be unused systems. If people use them, then they are used systems. The mod benefits.

Yes it is, because some Dev/Admin decided that all good trade-routes have to go trough New York/Pennsylvania.
But that does not mean that we should let a House die out.

In the most wonderful stroke of irony, you Welshman ended up with an IMG base.

Because the Scots fought their way onto to the sleeper ship. >.> But on a serious note, I have no clue where Wales is but hell! Give 'em a system I say, suppose there's no harm done.

The Wales system was originally included in Freelancer, but when the developers packaged the game up, it somehow fell off the map...
