According to DOTLAN the Nisuwa system has been in Gallente hands since 2011, for almost 5 years. Yet there is still a Caldari State Protectorate station in system, complete with Caldari FW agents and stuff.

Do you think it would be possible to petition CCP and turn the station into a Federal Defense Union base ?

I know it would upset the FW balance a bit, but it's denied to Caldari pilots even now , so I am sure they will not miss it much. Alternatively they could get a new station somewhere on the Caldari highsec border so they can access FW space more easily.

I think it would be quite interesting in-universe thing, having a Caldari built station belonging to the other side.

Have them switch ownership with the flip flop of FW at all stations that belongs to one side or another. Why shouldn't you be able to use your LP in the newly captured system. Gives more reason to work hard for your / their fortress system.

Beyond docking rights, those agents are probably the only draw to flipping the system from a purely mechanical perspective. They're fine where they are, and throwing up a new station in high-sec as recompense is hardly going to matter in terms of balancing things out.

How many other fortress systems would you like to see changed to reflect long-term ownership? (How long before someone pops up to say all of them I wonder?) Because there are others that have been held for just as long. The station currently belongs to GalMil, just use your imagination if that isn't enough.

Nope. Technical issues aside, this would only benefit farmers running missions by grossly inflating the number of agents available. FW needs some love, but not this kind.

There are not that many to begin with, the second in row is Eha , which is in Gallente hands for "only" 3 years, compared to 5 years in Nisuwa, every other system was flipped much more often. But I realize it would create a precedent.

Vlil is the longest held system for gallente. I propose removing the 450ish stations that are there and replacing them with 1 FDU.
