Most of us are feeling the same way about bombing and capping. With the smaller systems, all it seems to do is shove one team out of the server faster.
There is no reason to assume people will break the "protocol" of combat only, but we can prepare for the possibility.
If somebody goes on a capping spree, his team does not hav to support him. They do not have to supply, drop troops or give combat cover. That is one way to deter it.
Of course, it's not a RoC violation if somebody did try to, so we play a fine line there. However there is NO rule that says u MUST support a member of your faction.
I dont expect any problems, to be honest. For the most part when we have done these "flash combats", they've gone off very nicely. I expect we'll get the same results this time.
And as was stated, have ya'll seen Cass, Lac, and Andro? MUCH better systems for combat. Not slamming the Sag map. It is what it is. But there are 4 other servers that can handle above 1st RA rank that are really not being used. Servers that were set up for fighting and defending. Servers that somebody took the time to map up, and that wasnt just to give 30 some-odd planets to a faction to use for modding and ship spawning. So let's give them a spin! Let's do something NEW for a change!
I know, I know. This is DS. EVERYONE hates change here, it seems. It's ok. Don't be afraid to embrace a little of the unknown.
Who knows....
You might even have.....
I am gonna have fun lol
and i capped back cassi last night just for the transport points... not that i was trying to ruin anything. (and it was an order)
cassi is a great place. hope to see you all there... as i will not be going to sag of my own will for then next week.

Just so people understand....
Wolf has taken a few planets in Cass. We will probably work on taking a few in Lac as well. This is NOT an effort to cap your home servers, but is instead an attempt to get the players to do some combat in some very under utilized servers.

actualy, you took the whole of the kapteyns star system. no SY's there on ICC or ugto...... is this a failed idea?
