A deal has just been closed with the nation of Xendi, that will complete a trade route from Sol, to the Capsule world Zarahemla, through a nearby wormhole, leading straight to a core world in the Andromeda Galaxy.

This trade route will open next year, and will kick up intergalactic trade by an estimated 20 to 50 fold.
Trades already planned include Foodstuffs, new types of fuels, new weapons and defense technologies, and a lot of other stuff.
If you want to open your trade lines to another GALAXY, let us know, and we'll get your trade ships registered for passage through the gates and wormholes.

How much are tolls, if there are any? And how big a starship can fit through the gate?

10km / 10 km.Wow... that's pretty freakin huge! We could fit an entire fleet through there!
It is designed to allow the Valen'tha through, which is the "Mothership" of Xendi. Aboard the Valen'tha is the Grey Council, the Ruling Body of Xendi.
One of my freighters could definitely fit through then. They are rather huge, able to carry about four million tons of cargo. And what about tolls?
There are none. Xendi has no interest in money of other races, as they are useless to us.

We are working on a space fleet now, and would like to be connected to this wormhole of trade.
Also, Capsule, do you have any uncolonised habitable planets in your solar system that you haven't claimed yet? If not, then would you be willing to sell us one of the planets you have claimed?
We would like to create a trade link between the International Mall, http://s6.invisionfree.com/International_Mall/index.php?act=idx , and this wormhole grouping. Many storefronts on here sell spaceships capable of either facilitating trade, or protecting it.
Check it out if you are interested.

IC: What are the defenses against piracy on such a route?
We may be willing to join such a trade route.
OOC: However, I have just gotten onto the interstellar stage so to speak, so I won't be able to do much of anything. :wink:
There is a Xendi military installation at each jumpgate.

You're more than welcome to make the trip through the gate and explore our system.

We'll send need to register the transponders of your ships when you come to Zarahemla for registration.

Check it out if you are interested.If it is at Earth, then simply register your ships at Zarahemla, or with the Xendi ships.
Vernii's G&S Line will register twenty freighters at Zarahlema.
