A Small/Medium size structure that can be used for various things:
-Only able to have Cruiser and below Dock in it –For Larger ships it acts like a mobile Depot
-Can have Advertisement Banners all over the outside of it (A new billboard system!)
-Can be used as a Administrative HQ for Corps (why not?)
-Can have minimal manufacturing/Research Bonuses

You think why would we want this?
Well for one Role Playing!
Ever think of running your own Gamble Station? With Blackjack? Hookers? Booze?
Create your own Luxury Cruiser and you can sell them and host all the Exotic parties you want!!
Can be used for “Exotic” or “Illegal” wares.
Other uses
Small Administrative HQ for Corps
Possible “Emissary Stations” for Alliances
Hey could also be a Temp Ganker home.
CCP has said repeatedly that they are trying to develop an outpost Upwell structure to replace the functionality of POS’. Personally, I would like to see something that could anchor/unanchor in one step in less than an hour, no office rental, you can fit one service, has docking, personal and corporate hangar space, and repair facilities. Maybe take a cue from POS and have turrets that could be anchored outside the structure that auto-fire when attacked.
Oh I like this idea. I like the Remote Embassy idea, now if CCP would allow walking in Stations just in that structure, then diplomacy would get a step up. anyone for a food fight?
