Very interesting proposal. Will only work in case, when this fuel will be produced from randomly spawned complexes within whole galaxy (not only few regions). Certain cost of 1 hour fuel block may be lesser (<500kk), but in global I find the idea very nice. Also this will remove ratting with supers.

Of course, you can change anything here. It's the main idea only - to introduce supercap fuel, and make hard in production for any alliance - big and small. You can vary it`s cost, materials, their location and methods of obtaining.
The most important is idea itself - supercap fuel should be rare, and it`s accessibility should be the same for large and small alliances.

The core idea is great. I would love to see it introduced. But dont make supers a prison for characters with no fuel, let them dock

Of course, pilots should still have possibility to eject from/board to "inactive" supercaps, so they will not be prisoned. If you don't need that supercap right now - stop it under POS field, unload fuel and leave it on the capsule.

By the way, it makes supercaps a bit harder to steal - you will need not only to board it and fly away. You will need to fuel it first - even if you plan just warp from POS to safespot and cloak. Espionage/theft will be a bit more interesting/hard.
