Barrier Gate is one of the few privately owned space stations in Sirius. [[Freelancer]] George Tinsley made a name for himself in underworld circles when he discovered the "Barrier Pass", a shortcut between [[Tau]] and [[Liberty]] space that completely bypasses [[Bretonia]]. Knowing full well that his secret would not remain that way for long Tinsley called in favours and invested his entire fortune into having a rock on the edge of the Barrier Ice Field hollowed out and turned into a base. When the [[Independent Miners Guild]] workers he had hired finished, Tinsley began to tell his peers about the new passage.
 
 
 
Although retired from freelance piloting, Tinsley has become the administrator of Barrier Gate, which has grown steadily over the last decade. The station is ocupied by a motley [[crew]] of [[Liberty Rogues]], [[Lane Hackers]], [[Maltese]], [[Bounty Hunters Guild]], [[IMG]], [[Crayter]]ian, [[Zoners]] and various [[Freelancer (Faction)|Freelancers]] all looking to trade or lay low for a while. Most of the revenue on the station is generated by smugglers and pirates, although the IMG use the station as refuge from the cold conditions on Pecos.
 
 
 
As Tinsley planned, Barrier Gate has become a place where the [[Maltese]] exchange [[Cardamine]] with the criminals of Liberty, producing astounding profits. Not that his plan hasn't been without its problems. Tinsley is constantly fighting subtle attempts to take over the station from the Rogues, [[Junkers]] and the Outcasts themselves. In addition, the publication of the Barrier Pass and the new station earned Tinsley several large bounties from [[Molly]] gangs who have lost most of their cardamine smuggling business, which have thus far gone uncollected.
 
 
 
The arrival of the [[Crayter Republic]] in the system has presented the station and it's inhabitants with a quandry of possibilities and concerns. The [[Republic]] has not stated its intentions in regards to the station and so poses both a potential grave threat but also a potential market for the Gate's many amenities.
