== Construct ==
You can own more than 1 star system. The primary starport in 1 system must be completed before you can claim another system. You could build basic systems and daisy chain your way towards your favorite system. You can make it your home as the main system.<ref name=":2" />
The player who completed the primary starport becomes the [[System Architect]].<ref name=":4" /><ref name=":2" /> The architect has direct influence in placing existing assets, starport, planet ports, settlements and other facilities.<ref name=":3" /> There's a plethora of tools to work with.

== Factions ==
SC is connected to [[Powerplay|Powerplay 2]] and the [[Stellar Forge]]. While colonising a system you can push your chosen [[:Category:Power|Power]] into that system. Expand your Power's influence and create new systems, civilizations for the Power. Each system has an associated value. Every system is unique to some extend which will be represented in system colonisation. This can influence your system of choice.<ref name=":2" /> Built-up systems can influence the political state of the game based on the constructions.<ref name=":3" /> ▼
SC is connected to [[Powerplay|Powerplay 2]] and the [[Stellar Forge]].<ref name=":4" /> Unpopulated systems are unaligned. A newly colonized system only has the [[:Category:Factions|faction]] from which the colonisation claim was purchased.<ref name=":4" /> If a different [[Powerplay]] faction conquers the system then the architect will remain in control of system development.<ref name=":4" />

Expanding [[Core Systems|The Bubble]] can have a galaxy wide effect. For example new trade routes for [[Trader|traders]], new hubs for [[Explorer|explorers]] that you can use as a home base before going into deep space.<ref name=":2" /> ▼
 
More details will be disclosed during [[Frontier Unlocked]] #11 on 27 November 2024.
