Comment: Added Asteroid Belt and Avarice templates

...

The number and yields of asteroids in each sector are unvarying between game starts so the number of self-sustaining factories of each category able to be supported by the sector is consistent even if there is a lot of flexibility in the types of output wares able to be produced. This section gives template complexes for getting the most out of each sector. In general every 40 yield of silicon can utilise 50 yield of ore. To singlehandedly support a PHQ requires 8.5x (616/h Silicon productivity and an Ore asteroid with >2 yield.

General Information

...

A very busy sector due to it being a bottleneck between the southwestern sectors and the southern Paranid sectors. The frequent military patrols mean that the complex should be built in the south of the map far from the ecliptic to avoid discovery by hostile races invading the sector and not be considered if hostile to the Boron. The large flow of traders makes this a good sector for selling products to NPCs for credits. The lack of Ore yield means this sector should be used for producing products that require Silicon Wafers like Microchips, Computer Components, satellites and drones or used to produce Crystals to supply complexes in sectors without silicon containing asteroids. This sector cannot singlehandedly support a PHQ without importing Ore.

...

One of the most resource rich sectors in the game and not owned by a major race making this sector an ideal base of operations. There is enough Silicon productivity for a self sustaining complex that can support the PHQ and 198 factories for missile support/ship equipping/stock market manipulation which is enough to instantly supply most ships able to be produced by the PHQ. There is an excess of Ore asteroids so not all are used. The density of the asteroid field is so high that some asteroids need to be destroyed using missiles or a Mobile Drilling System so some mines can be moved out of the asteroid field before returning later to place mines on the asteroids when they respawn. If the player uses an M7M for combat this is one of the six sectors that will need to be used for dedicated missile production. By there being no sector owner the complex and PHQ is safe from RR ships if the player is hostile to a major race while the Yaki patrols are small enough to easily be fought off. It is advisable to place the complex hub in the south west of the sector at least 50km from the South Gate to avoid the infrequent Paranid military patrols. This sector can singlehandedly support a PHQ.

A convenient sector for a complex since it is close to Hatikvah's Faith making it a useful refuelling stop for jumping due to the relative central position in the universe before ownership of the HUB is obtained and for equipping ships brought at the nearby OTAS Shipyard in Legends Home (the neighbouring sector). If hostile to the Argon it also makes a quiet base of operations for launching assaults into argon space from. The slight excess of Ore yield compared to Silicon means not all Ore asteroids are utilised. Due to the medium size of complex able to be sustained it typically makes a good second self sustaining complex. This is a good sector for having 10x Lasertower Factories for keeping other player owned stations/complexes secured. This sector cannot can singlehandedly support a PHQ.
