A nation will eventually expand to more regions. The first one holds its capital city, while other regions can provide a variety of natural resources and different biomes. Spreading out development also helps improve infrastructure efficiency, and subsistence is usually more efficient in unexploited lands.
Here we have 2 cities on 2 separated landmasses
The city has claimed the entire island but has also extended its influence off the coast to the northeast, reaching another island. Water tiles are much cheaper to claim and maintain, but they require sea-projection points. We can see how the relief hinders the administration's reach. The red areas have the lowest administration efficiency.
But this city has a strong naval tradition. Infrastructure on the coast and a special building in the capital (seaport) generate enough sea-projection points to claim the entire coastline of the continent.
This city has 3 sea-projection points and can control 3 sea tiles without penalty
Administration spread is much more efficient at sea than on undeveloped land (without infrastructure development), meaning that even the remote coastlines to the west are now properly administered.
Administration efficiency is very important as it represents the control a nation has over a region and its population. It affects corruption, taxes, and the Political Point (PP) balance. Usually, low administration is also a sign of poor supply routes, which affects industry efficiency and hinders internal migration.
Osley has claimed a large territory. Each territory costs a lump sum of PP (Political Points) and also requires administration maintenance. This tiny nation would never be able to administer such a large territory without having crippling corruption. Administration is produced from buildings in the capital city, and maintenance is reduced through infrastructure and policies.
The administration cost of a tile is mainly determined by the population and the administration "pathfinding" cost to the capital (where infrastructure, relief, and flora play a major role).
The migration attractiveness overlay tells us a lot. Osley relies mostly on subsistence, and its capital's region offers many more opportunities than these untamed territories. Bear in mind that a single tile is quite a large area by itself.
However, the uranium to the northwest, petrol to the north, iron to the west, and coal to the southwest offer good opportunities to establish robust industry.

Antimatter is a strategy game in a simulated galaxy where you create and incarnate a character.
In command of your spaceship, trade, fight, explore or lead an interstellar empire.
You will dive into a complex universe where you, a mere player, is the insignificant cog of a cruel simulation.
Features
- Thousands of systems and planets to explore in a gigantic instantiated galaxy.
- A dynamic universe where dozens of factions struggle for power or survival.
- Take command of a spaceship, trade, mine, harvest, scavenge, produce and participate in the simulated economy.
- Manage an existing city or found a new colony on any planet.
- Climb the political ladder of a commercial corporation or a sovereign organisation, or found a new one from scratch.
- Interact with AI characters who are living independant and simulated life in the Antimatter universe.
- Terraform entire planets by altering their atmospheric compositions.
- Fulfil missions for corporations, factions or individuals, or unravel the secrets of this galaxy.
- Get involved in the Antimatter Crisis and try to change yourself the course of history.
How To play ?
Antimatter is a RPG that plays as a grand strategy game, you have neither omniscience or omnipotence, most of your responsibility can be delegated to spaceship captains and governors if you control any territory.
No micromanagement is required, you have the freedom to deal with the businesses that interests you the most.
Antimatter plays in the intersideral space, on the planet's surface or in the mysterious undergrounds, you can play all the way from a space journeyman to a galactic emperor.
Create and customise your galaxy with all available options, such as the stellar systems count and types or the historical events that will impact the simulation of civilisations through the ages.- An universe generated and simulated across billions of years with a realistic accretion model of gas and dust.
- A simulation of civilisations through thousands of years, filled with historical events.
- Asteroids, comets, nebulae, planets and many other astral objects to explore.
- A wide range of planets, entirely simulated and procedurally generated.
- A procedurally generated geology.
- A realistic and dynamic atmospheric simulation.
- Terraform entire planets by altering their atmospheric composition.
All civilisations are procedurally generated and simulated through thousands of years. Ruins, monuments, POIs and ancient artefacts exist thanks to this detailed simulation.- Manage your crew and the specialty of your crewmembers.
- Customise your spaceship with many modules and choose from dozens of different spaceships.
- A radar simulation with passive and active detection, which rewards stealth and reconnaissance.
- A varied range of weapons, such as missiles capable of crossing millions of kilometres.
- Manage your fleet and hosted ships.
- Land on any planet or asteroid in the galaxy.
- Study and harvest exoctic flora.
- Meet and profit from ancient civilisations.
- Create and incarnate a character, define his physical and psychological traits, his education, characteristic and skills and his appearance.
- NPCs have their life simulated from birth, each trait and characteristics come from an experience in their lives.
- NPCs have their own artificial intelligence, they act by themselves with the same liberty as the player. You are not the only actor in this universe. NPCs also contribute to the political system of organisations.
Create, or be part of a commercial corporation, a sovereign state or a criminal organisation, fulfil missions and climb the ladder of the organisation.- Trade goods.
- Mine and harvest ressources and objects.
- Manage and build space stations, and produce new spaceships.
- Embrace a pirate's life with extorsions and deceiving actions.
- Administrate cities and territories, or lead an entire empire.
- Participate in the organisation's political intrigues.
- Lead and organise a fleet by using your influence.
THe terrain of each planetary region (tile) can be explored and can even be the location of a colony. Each region has its own geology, a simulated biosphere and can host ancient ruins generated during the historical simulation.- Manage the city's industry, trade, demography and its political aspects.
- Plan the city's defences against orbital threats.
- Develop and extend the city's frontier across the planet.
- Explore deep and mysterious subterranean regions.
- A destructible environment and a liquid simulation.
- A dynamic weather system.
- A monstruous fauna (only giant worms for now).
Change the climate of an entire planet by slowly modifying its atmospheric composition, observe the chain reactions on its geology, hydrosphere and its biosphere thanks to a detailed and realistic atmospheric simulation.
The flora is entirely simulated where each species' reign depends on local conditions and the other competing species. - Create and incarnate a character, define his physical and psychological traits, his education, characteristic and skills and his appearance.
- An universe generated and simulated across billions of years with a realistic accretion model of gas and dust.
