That way the guild has to have a constant influx of resources to a) maintain warp point openers, and b) build new ones.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'd also suggest making the guild dependent upon the other houses by making the warp openners use a lot of supplies. This way, they must resupply before each jump... but they wouldn't necessarily have a base at which they can resupply... thus the need to dock at a resupply station of one of the houses.

I think it would be good for the warp closing devices to be cheap and not be 'destroyed upon use', but to need some spice to build.

It also puts a nice lower bound on the cost of a warp jump (i.e. you have to at least supply value equal to the organics cost of the component)

Andres: For this I'd suggest the game maker produce a handful of neutral planets with highly efficient (non-researchable) research buildings on them. Maybe downgrade the normal research facilities by a notch or two. Then, in addition to fighting over the one spice world, everyone can fight over the two or three tech worlds too!
