To change AoE weapons might or might not be a coding / game mechanism issue. I think it would be more favorable to just get rid of alliance and corporation faction standing requirements for enlisting / staying in militia and should be simple enough to be coded as it would affect no other game mechanisms at all. I would keep the requirements for NPC milita corps as this will preven unconsequential Awoxing. Awoxers in player corps / awoxing corps should be handled by the players themselves with exisitng mechanisms (wardecs / corp standings and a nbsi doctrine)

I am skipping the RP/lore issue here as it is still easy to switch sides albeit with some (stupid) mission grinding involved.

@Sugar Kyle: it would do you good to come back to this post and comment on the suggestions you asked for. People might otherwise think you are biased as your alliance would not like seing more AoE weapons around Rakapas other than Santo and his alts. (Who btw adds more content to this game than most other players - everyone knows and secretely likes the feeling of discomfort being in a non-empty pod and him in system).

I think there are enough negatives to being in faction warfare that removing the blocks to use weapons available for warfare that are available to everyone else in lowsec and nullsec won't lead to everyone shouting that there aren't any negatives (Station lockouts, trashed faction standings, messed up security standings/or giving up the first shot, etc.).

Speaking of negatives to being in FW though, I think the faction navy rats could use a hefty upgrade so newbro's aren't constantly farmed in highsec.

Yeah, CCP Affinity dropped some knowledge yesterday for sure. New missions in the works, suspect flag on accel gates, and hopefully a split of the factions.

Hopefully we can get standings issues in nullsec and AoE weapons in low addressed as well.

I hope so as well, as it will give us more options to the tools of the trade we can use.
