Aephia Industries

Build · Own · Earn

The #1 ship manufacturing guild in the Star Atlas metaverse.

One of the first Star Atlas guilds, with a branch in every faction since 2021: ONI, MUD and Ustur.

What we do

Not here to chase fights. Here to supply them.

We’re the oldest still-active guild in Star Atlas, and we’re building more than a guild: an industry inside the game, a layer of tools around it, and an enterprise owned by the players who do the work.

Industry

Ships and their components, from rock to rocket, in all three factions. Star Atlas is turning into a war economy, and every war machine needs a supply line.

A layer around the game

Tools that extend Star Atlas rather than just play it, like AstralPass and AtlasBase: built to run our production at scale, and open to everyone where they can be.

Shared knowledge

A rising tide lifts all ships. The weekly newsletter, 255 issues and counting, our guides and our data dashboards are free for everyone.

Earned, not bought

Ownership and voting power come from what you contribute, not from what you buy. Profits go to the players who do the work, never to investors. We don’t have any.

Every week, together

Every Saturday, two hours of strategy over our own analytics. Every Sunday, two hours live on the week’s news, followed by a Q&A with the leadership. And once a week, a UE5 game night.

The Star Atlas DAO’s public dashboard has moved from an approved proposal to a nearly finished working build, with Ryden selected from five applicants. Meanwhile, the team shared some interesting ideas for Starbase specializations in SAGE C4, which could allow players to shape their local economies through governance and shared construction projects. Phase 3.2 is also getting close, with the team wrapping up the final development and testing work.

Weekly Star Atlas Newsletter #254

Last week gave us our clearest look yet at how regional governance will work in SAGE C4. The Democracy Module will allow players to use their delegated POLIS Voting Power to influence local fees and earn a share of Starbase revenue. Beyond that, we learned more about the upcoming Phase 3.2 progression and ship-balance changes, while another nine Open Market Operations listings sold out and returned at higher prices.

Weekly Star Atlas Newsletter #253

Last week, we learned just how extensive the upcoming SAGE C4 Phase 3.2 reset has become. What started as a Council Rank update has grown into a much broader overhaul of progression, mining, resource distribution, Claim Stakes, and travel. The team is now preparing the build for internal testing ahead of its release. Beyond C4, we have several community projects to cover, including the launch of the AtlasKit SDK, the playable alpha of Clash of Iris, and some unfortunate news from the Atom team.
