with the addition of Thera and 4 npc stations is there any traction for the advent of player built and owned w-space outposts.

somthing between the POS and the K-space outposts you see in 0.0

it wouldnt have all the capabilities of the kspace version but would not require sov. and only deployable in w-space. at the same time due to not needed sov it would be more vunerable to attack and seige.

just an idea if there is traction ill put more than fleeting thoughts into it. if not ill crawl back to my pos and plan my next pvp loss.

I'm all for W-space getting outposts so long as outposts themselves get a revamp.

First of all they'd have be destroyable.

Basically this. Having stations in w-space would be fine as long as they are destroyable with a force that is realistic for w-space.

I'm on the fence about this one. On the one hand, it would be nice for people settling down. On the other, WH is like a big ol nomadic safari zone and this puts it one step closer to being null-sov-like.

Allowing a WH outpost that's only destroyable by supers. Wouldn't THAT be rich....

Give wormspace outpost the same Shield, armor and hull htpoints as customoffice, but give them some ability to anchor sentryguns around or on the outpost.

Please no.

Wspace doesn't need outposts. It needs working corp roles and POS permissions. That's about it. Whether that's what CCP decides to do or not I don't know (unlikely since they seem to be talking about some modular thing Soom tm). But we don't need outposts.

I'm right behind you

Why not keep it simple, and just allow the large POS tower to accept docking like an Outpost does?

Give it a different name or something, perhaps.
