Idea is adding more upgrades to FW systems that affect POS owned by corps in the controlling factions milita.

Things like reduced mineral and job cost or decreased research time.

This would give more of a reason to upgrade systems with no stations in other then just war zone control as well as promote more industry to be done in LS and give industrial corps a reason to be invested in FW (although a lot of them of them would probably just make alt corps). This could also help a militia by taking a system and upgrading it then inviting industry pilots out to build for them.

I honestly didn't take much time to think through this and am looking for feed back.

So far the main problems i can see with this is PoS code particularly with making it so it only affects the POSs owned by alliances and corps in the proper militia.

A nice thought.

However, how many militia actually do industry on that level? I would guess very few. Which isn't a reason not to have an upgrade along these lines. However, I'm not sure it would be sought after enough for people to upgrade a system just for the bonus.

I think it would end up being a "nice bonus from a system we're upgrading anyway because we want a higher tier" like most of the other system upgrade bonuses.
