Yes! I discovered this forum specifically to post this idea. Looks like someone beat me to it.
I think gambling at casinos would be a great addition to the game. You could even gamble for credits, ore, system upgrades, goods, turrets, etc.
I could see myself spending a lot of time gambling for a legendary turret or something. I think it would be really fun!
Thanks to the devs for the hard work! I love the game. Keep up the great work! :)
