An important question: Defender positioning. Will defenders start with NULL cannon control? Will they start at a near location to bases as opposed to attackers who need to find a way in? Will defenders control all installations in the beginning o...

Also, with the mechanics currently in place, there will be Bounty Hunter(z) corporations in PC that will be using the genolution mechanic if it goes live as is. They will be hired to shut down competition or just to cause issues to certain unwante...

Hey, was the remote clone bomb topic beat to death already? Has it been discussed? Planned mechanic loveliness: Attacking 6 clone jumps gives a survival rate of 20%, making this the business of the very best out there. The clone projection make...

So, the extent of alt corp usage for the very wealthy big corp looking to safe expand: 1) create enough 1man ringer corps to claim a planet. 2) settle main corp on planet. 3) reinforce main district by burning new alt corp genolution packs for 20...

Couple of questions, sorry if I missed an earlier answer: 1) An important mechanic will be the queue on "who gets to attack". How would this be iterated? 2) Will the maps be enlarged from the skirmish of present, or perhaps in later versions of PC?

Django's method here is kind of feasible; lockdown from attacks while gaining clones. Kind of a corp "reinforce mode" burning isk. Taking notes...

I don't think the constant attack is actually related to the subject of split expand. Surely it makes expansion hard. Splitting makes it easier but won't ultimately allow you to hold any more (I never claimed this). What I claim is that split expa...
