JI Company

As a bow to another famous space game I'd like to add a new comany:

About Joist Industries

Joist Industries is the largest business conglomerate in the Galactic Co-operation of Worlds (GalCop) and an integral part of modern civilization. They are the leading company for Naval research.

Joist is well known mainly due to producing autonomously working robots and military combat droids. They also produce communication equipment and several military equipment, partially classified and computer equipment.

They have built small air vessels for one or two person being used on planet as well as in close-to-planet military operation for special forces. They also are leading in the hyperspace research and had a substantial influence in the build of the known hyperdrives (though the research on the topic nowadays is very low as other research topics have priority).

Joist was not involved in ship research and development since the beginning days of space travel until the detection of a Tiger MK1 ship by the GalCop Navy.

This is a company I want to use for a ship that I want to use. As you requested I changed the name from Vector to Joist Industries (similar meaning like Vector).

The idea is to have a founding company of space travel. It doesn't necessarily needs to be as big as described here but should have a substantial influence as described.

What do you think ?

I guess it may lead to confusion. See Vector OXP and [wiki]Vector_OXP[/wiki]. This OXP ships references to a small shipbuilding company 'Vector Inc.', so I'd say Joist Industries is the way to go.-)

On the other side - it's a big ooniverse .-)

Agreed I personally thought there was already a Vector Industries, but I may have been confusing it with the Vector OXP. Perhaps calling it Joist Industries would be a better idea as so not to confuse backward hicks like me!

Smaller than you think..

Now guess who was the name father of the ship...
and who does actually own UniversalLaw & sons

I have changed the name of the company and added a link to the wiki (see headline). Be free to use the company for both the original game as well as for your own oxp creations (though I'd prefer that the ship business should be kept low).

Thanks for your feedback!
