New City in New Atlantis?

[Low Standards]

I have started working on a mod for a new city in New Atlantis, called Armstrong. My question. Would this be lore accurate? Is there something preventing other cities on this planet? I could always move it if it is.

There isn't any reason that I know of. The treaty was that each faction could colonize three systems, with no stated limits on how many planets or cities that would entail.

And, with the war, I am not sure if that limit is still in force.

Sounds like a good idea. And a nice name for the city

I think the lore is pretty flexible in Starfield. One of the unity outcomes is constellation turns into plants or something. Plus they have an entire cult devoted to snakes that arent even in the game. I think youre good.

Do heat leaches qualify as 'snakes'??? They are rather snake-like at the very least.

No because that would be cool and fun and against company policy.

Edit : That really is a great idea and would have made the DLC so much better and make sense.

I find it odd that each main planet only have one city. Theres not even smaller villages out there. so yeah, I'm all for people adding more cities or smaller town. Makes sense to me, that they would be there.

Nah go nuts - when you're modding, you get to take the lore into your own hands and make it what you want. I don't generally use mods but if I did, anything that fits within the context of the game would be great.

Bonus points if you can link it to the New Atlantis transit.

If it's a UC city then no

But also , why make another UC city on that planet ?

You'd be better off building a unique colony concept around a different planets more unique features.

You read my mind.

Do you mean "on Jemison", maybe?

Because NA is pretty rounded as is: The Well as "Ye awlde Towne", and the neo-brutalistic Skyscraperia above... ...where would Armstrong then be?

Not saying having a more ... organically grown city somewhere else on Jemison wouldn't make sense. Lore-wise... ...well, the Lore isn't that tight. So, well, IMHO, go ahead...

they have a cult devoted to one singular "great serpent"

Speaking of which, IRL pretty much all cults and religions are devoted to some entity that isn't even there, so I'm not sure where your thought process is going

There are small villages on all planets with human made POIs

CF "civilian outposts"

not to mention all the scientific/mining/plant with friendly npcs that can sort of qualify as "villages".

leeches are something else. They have their own backstory.

Yeah but it would make sense, a serpent rising up to devour the non-believers. Who's to say that the original house settlers didn't have a few heat leaches turn into terrormorphs and eat a few peasants, maybe they believe there's a giga chad heat leech out there somewhere. That'd be a fun boss fight.

Still no news.
LS must have given up.
