What with the Gallia (French) House on the way, and Bretonia being close, since their coming in the Tau area (I think) I would nickname the link as The Channel. Or put a station in between as a heritage link.

Or how about the link between Bretonia house Liberty? Call the border worlds in there the 'Atlantic Stretch'? Or even the Omega's BretoniaRheinland link as the 'Baltic Stretch'?

What you guys think?

A Calais base in the Taus would make sense, as well as perhaps Dover too.

Well ... examining Liberty (America) ... There's a bit of a mixup.

- New York system is the central system in Liberty. Um ... what? New York should be to the Northeast.

- California is to the Southwest of New York ... sorta ok.

- Texas is to the Southeast of New York ... a bit off.

- Colorado is to the North of New York ... WHAT?

- Alaska is to the East of New York ... again ... WHAT?

- Connecticut is slightly Northeast of New York ... um ... well ... ok ... good nuf.

- Virginia is Southwest of Texas ... um ... oh I give up .................................

The Channel and Calais are a couple of good ideas, in my opinion.:)

Maybe the minefield in the Orkney field could be renamed as 'The Channel Minefield' :)
