I am talking about structure warfare in wormhole space. Never said anything about kspace.

You are missing the point on null sec though and providing a way for users that have been out of area for years on end to end up with isk. This is not a good design. There are risks involved in null sec and losing a station that you put time effort and isk into is one of these. If you have never lived out in null sec or understand what life is like out here maybe you should not be the one coming up with ideas on how to refund upgrades for stations. Or if you do want to weigh in with an idea make sure you fully understand the area in which you are commenting on. What you proposed makes no sense in the way null sec works with risk vs reward and the ability to lose vast fortunes.

Edit: They have not even released how this will happen yet so wait a second on this but people are sounding more like they want a risk free in WH because its hard to live there with my small group

I just feel like all these Entosis issues could be solved if the structures moved to analog.

Can You elaborate? Does this mean the vulnerabilty timer will be every few days or what?

To those complaining about how you are gonna be blaped by the stations weapons while running your Entosis Link cause you can't shoot the guns like at a POS.. You're forgetting something.

Now DD's and such are gonna mess you up, so you best be in a Super to run the link.. but for the other weapons, TD, and Firewalling should still be an effective way to keep the ship running the link safe(ish)..

Also the Entosis Link II is a 250km Range.. who knows how much firepower it can put out at that range.

How would that work in HS / WH's though?

I like the concept though. Maybe have hiding them be something more easily done in 0.0?

Easy fix for removal of existing stations.
Convert them to XLarge Citadels
OR (my preference)
1 month after XL Citadels are introduced all Stations/Outposts in sov nul become destructible.
Capital ships are given a 100% bonus to jump range for 60 days or until only 1 station is left.
Last standing station becomes a monument to days gone by and has a searchable list of all those who engaged in the destruction of every other station. List who destroyed each station with kills and losses as part of the monument.

No reimbursement needed except for blueprints. Tons of content for big and small ships. Massive kill/loss mails of all types.

So is this supposed to be the replacement for generic POSes used as bases, eg. deathstars and dickstars?

Might I ask why the old outposts are going to remain as is rather than be turned into the new structures, and what will be happening to POS towers?



Aww bummer, I was hoping the deployables would be reworked to fit under the new mechanics. For instance a MTU would become a generic harvesting structure with a tractor beam fitted and a role bonus service that buffs tractor beams

I understand that I will never change your opinion, Mr. Wolf, however flawed it may be, and I will not try. Instead, I will address the points he raises in the hope that I might find the ears of less close minded individuals.

In response to Mr. Wolf points:

It is the considered opinion of this author, a multi-year veteran of nullsec life, that Mr. Wolf is correct when he states there are inherent risks in nullsec, including risk of major or catastrophic loss. However, his repetition of this truism is utterly irrelevant, as is his tiresome reliance on the risk/reward analogy. Furthermore, his argument typifies the thinking that resulted in both the big blue doughnut and stagnation in nullsec that CCP has taken great pains to eliminate.

Mr. Wolf's misses or ignores much of the thrust of my argument and further misses one of the extraordinarily obvious, salient issues I present: removal of stations is a once in a game opportunity to bring newly formed entities into nullsec or bring people back into null who have been missing for a long time. Either result brings more entities into nullsec, further diversifying it and creating more opportunities for both economic pvp and traditional pvp content.

Returning to the point at hand, to both enrich and entrench current residents simply because they are there is a small point compared to the potential advantages of implementation of my proposal. In a majority of cases, at the time of removal and reimbursement for stations, the builders and entities who upgraded stations will be the current owners, rendering Mr. Wolf's points moot. However, sometimes they will not be the owners. To overlook the huge opportunity to bring more people into nullsec would be a tragic waste of a unique point in time in Eve.
