ICC HQ

The Interstellar Corperate Council Headquarters for operations on Rubi-Ka is located in Andromeda, and is Neutrally aligned. The largest spaceport on the planet, it is the first location in the open world of Rubi-Ka that newly made characters from Arete Landing encounter, as of Patch 18.7. The patch also made renovations to the buildings and additions to the populace.

RALPH has no time for your questions. Recipient of a delivery mission from Jonas in Arete Landing started after level 5, see above. Behind him is his boss, who would dismiss you curtly, and an exquisitely modelled floating ball droid that gives out repeatable Daily Missions

History

Present Day

Currently, the ICC operations on the planent are very low key beyond the maintence of the Peacekeeping troops. The HQ serves mostly as a travel stop off for those who are going to the Outzone Staging area or to the Battlestation.

Services

In the earlier days of the HQ, other than servicing as the hub for the three different Whompah networks on Rubi-Ka, the HQ itself provided no services in the traditional sense. Now there are shops of every kind, most of them in the Shopping building, but there is also an Implants store with as much as Jobe Refined implants and clusters, a Phasefront store with vehicles and Mechs, OFAB terminals, mission terminals, a Fair Trade store, a Bronto Burger stand in the north near the northwest corner, and others.
