Story Overview:
==========
Extra! Extra! This just in! Omni-Tek announces the discovery of spatial anomaly inside of the Rubi-Ka System.
Omni-Tek Research and Development in conjunction with the Omni-Engineering’s prestigious Omni-Labs group have been able to identify a massive energy signature that runs right over the planet Rubi-Ka. The signature, or ley line as is has been called, converges with several others just like it only a short distance from the Planet Rubi-Ka.
Far enough away from the planet to not draw the attention of the invading alien fleet Omni-Tek researchers had free reign to investigate the anomaly in peace. Research went on for over a year before the researches concluded that the anomaly was in fact a dormant portal of sorts and that if provoked could open up.
Omni-Tek immediately approved the construction of ‘Exploratory Station VII’ which would serve as a launchpad after the portal is opened. The Omni-Tek Armed Forces move the Fleet Carrier OTS Golden Eagle to the anomaly to provide protection to the construction crews.
After the station is complete the Omni-Tek Armed Forces move in two units from their famous Mu Fleet which usually protects the Omni-Tek homeworld of Omni-Prime, the Super Dreadnaught OTS Persisting Vigilance and the Battleship OTS Constanople. With the Golden Eagle and Persisting Vigilance braced for retaliation the Constanople engages the Massive Ion Cannon built into it’s haul and fires into the anomaly ripping open Space Time.
Exploratory Station VII launches a probe into the wormhole and after a series of tests conclude that the probe is transmitting from the Andromeda System. Marking a milestone in human exploration Omni-Tek prepares an away team to be the first humans to ever leave our galaxy. Omni-Tek’s best Researchers and Explorers are assigned to the task and sent through the wormhole.
Their mission was to last one week, and just as planned the researches return to newly renamed Andromeda Station right on time. They brought back stories of colonized planet just on the other side of the wormhole and of the spacefaring race of people who inhabit it. The explorers also bring back two important pieces of information; The planet contains Notum just like Rubi-Ka and the People on the planet were trilled to meet the researches because they had a serious problem on their hands.
Omni-Tek is thrilled to hear about this contact but is now juggling the problem of drawing the Alien’s attention by opening up the wormhole. Not able to send more employees to further the exploration Andromeda Station is opened up to anyone brave enough to chart the new Galaxy.
----------
Intergalactic Commerce Clause:
----------
The opening of the wormhole has opened up new markets to the consumers and producers of both galaxies. Omni-Tek was quick to restrict commercial and industrial traffic to any non-corporate entity. This resulted in many Corporations filing anti-trust suits against Omni-Tek through the ICC.
Omni-Tek was quick to respond citing the presence of Notum in the new galaxy and how it could undermine their existing operations if Notum could be shipped through the wormhole which they discovered and maintain.
A long and embroiled legal trial pressed on in Sol Banking Corporation v. Omni-Tek Corporation. At the conclusion of the Trial the ICC backed Sol Banking's claims but set forth the following conditions regarding the trafficking of Notum:
I. Omni-Tek may exercise its rights to be the sole exporter of Notum on all traffic passing through the wormhole.
II. Any Notum, in quantities large enough to be su****ious of commercial or industrial resale, will be confiscated by Omni-Trans Custom Officials upon inspection. The Individual or Entity will be financially compensated for the Notum seized in this way according to an Omni-Tek Pay Scale.
III. Omni-Tek’s right to exercise its monopoly rights on the wormhole is strictly pegged to its lease of Rubi-Ka. Should for any reason Omni-Tek’s lease be revoked or expire so does its claims over the wormhole.

Objective Overview:
==========
Players will be able to be transported from the surface of Rubi-Ka to Andromeda Station via a time shuttle departing from Borealis. Players who Pre-Order and complete a Pre-Order quest series will receive a Transporter Token which can be used to instantly transport a player from anywhere on Rubi-Ka to the Officer’s Club on board the OTS Golden Eagle which in addition to being a bar will have a Whom-Pah to the Station.
On Andromeda Station there will be all the luxuries of a major player city as well as an observation deck which will serve as a bar and display the Golden Eagle, Persisting Vigilance and Constanople engaging the Alien fighters in space as well as the Wormhole opening and closing.
Onboard the station players will be able to board a shuttle which will take them from Andromeda Station to the surface of the new planet.
On the planet the players will work to piece together larger pieces of the puzzle of their existence. This includes discovering that The Source is not unique. Andromeda System contains two Anomalies with matter and energy properties identical to The Source. Players also go on to discover that the Humans of the new planet control one and that the Aliens that are invading Rubi-ka are also in the Andromeda System and they control the other.
Players can assist this new Human race in their battle for Survival and in exchange gain access to Source Forged Armor and Weapons which they can use to battle the Aliens in the Milky Way.

Content Overview:
==========
New “Neutral” Capital City.
New playfields for players 1-220. (Because of the explanation of “The Source” to the other Anomalies players will be able to gain Shadow Knowledge in the new areas.)
New Alien Playfields in the context of planetary invasion. Players dropship into Alien fortified worlds and need to raid them. Like raiding an Alien Built Omni-1.
New Armor and Weapons. The Humans of the new planet control a Source and are able to use it to produce weapons and armor of amazing quality. They will only part with their gear in exchange for assistance though.
Source Hybrid Armors. Both the Humans and the Aliens are abusing the Sources to advance their military causes in Andromeda. Trade Skilling the Human and Alien items together can produce interesting results.
A new Influx of weapons and armor have started to be imported to Rubi-Ka per the Intergalactic Commerce Clause. While not as high quality as Source Forged goods, these weapons and armor are of a very high quality. [New Froob Weapons and Armor to be stocked in Basic, Advanced and Superior Shop Booths]

This is just a concept idea, nothing official or final by any means. I just wanted to write it all down to get it out of my head.
