Well, wormholes are 0.0 or nullsec too, just not sovereign nullsec, Thera is more like wormhole space than soveign null, no local, sleepers, cloaky hunters, wormhole entrances, no cynos, no gates and all the rest.

Putting stations there does not make it any less our playground Lol others will have to learn a few tricks to play in this type of Nullsec.

I remain skeptical. Anything less than 50 wormholes will be easy enough for a dedicated large coalition to lock down, at least against larger ships, especially with Dictor bubbles still allowed. I can't imagine it'll be worthwhile to bring in your ships to run the sites either, it'll be a ganker's paradise.

"Mos Eisley in EVE" sounds nice, but in Mos Eisley you still behave yourself for fear of getting shot.

I think this is one where we need to see how it goes, the fact that sleepers seem to appear at the landmarks, I have not seen them at the holes yet, but Sleepers are not your average gate rats, that may make camping difficuilt if so.

There is no reason to believe that this will not be watched, station defences could certainly deal with a sufreit of station camping, if that got out of control (which it probably will) and a couple of dozen sleepless guardians spawning on a hole would happily discourage even the most determined or sleepy camper.

From a lore basis, sleepers would react to concentrations of capsuleers, and those running the stations would be determined to keep their ability to operate freely without annoyance. If you ran a station in such lawless space, you would certainly have failed calm diplomacy 101.ShockedLol

Advanced overkill is more likely to have been their major

So IMHO too early to worry, most likely already well thought out, and will provide some fun surprises.

Even without NPC involvement, Those expecting an easy delivery of an endless stream of kills are likely to have a rude lesson in the realities of wormhole life
