So far I'm a little disappointed by the look of the outposts. The Kami and Karavan drills look fantastic, and there is obviously room for expansion on the unused construction sites, but I expected to see some variation in the style of the rest of the outpost too. I'd love to see differentiation according to the type of outpost; whether it be a farm, a research centre or a diplomatic outpost, for example. I was expecting to see variation according to the land an outpost is in as, excepting stables, each civilisation has its own architecture. Architectural variation according to the allegiance of the guild that runs the outpost would be even more appropriate, I think, maybe dependant upon the civilisation that their guildhall is sited in.

Still yet to own an outpost, and the French ATS Team seem to have almost cornered the market on the "affordable housing" low-rent sector

Hihi OotATS (OotN version at ATS) conquered one of French Ops- Finder's Farm We placed our driller and were owners for 1 day Then French fought it back cause we couldn't defend it while being busy on Aripostle But this Sunnday we plann to get it back because they dare to place a kami driller on matisian soil!

Aha...After our win or loose we invite everyone from Aripostle to our main Outpost Fearing Fen Farm for a pleasant chats and some finnest Stinga Rum

I have to agree - unless they are holding the real outposts in reserve for the live server.

Currently you can only build one add-on - a drill. The drill comes in Kami or Karavan - no difference in appearance between the different Karavan drills (high dapper one looks exactly like the low dapper one).

Looks like there will be an outpost plaque to show guild colors. And you'll have access to your guild hall from the outpost (same rules apply).

GL and HO have a few screens to play with (what to build, what mercs to hire, merc placement and a coffer to pay for them) but there isn't much else.

Would have been nice to have real buildings instead of an vendor booth. Watchtowers would have been really cool. No real purpose, just cool
