If anything, I believe it makes more sense now - it is no longer only accessible through House guard systems, which should suit the headquarters of the Renzu Corporation, a Kusari-based civilian manufacturer. Oita may not be a system that is part of sovereign Kusari territory, but it does not quite classify as an Independent World.
While IND, the player faction, owns the system, it is not mechanically a guard system. However:
Server Rules Wrote:4.5 Official player factions are free to restrict or not restrict access to their owned systems and tax players who enter owned system. However, properly Tagged and ID'd independent players may enter Guard/Owned systems, and cannot be taxed. Access to systems that surround owned system must not be restricted unless there's a war with another faction.
I'm confused...
If in 4.86 Oita system is connected with 2 Liberty systems (Ellesmere and Illinois) and 1 from Kusari (Hiroshima), in 4.87 this system will be connected only with Kusari (New Tokyo, Honshu and Shikoku). But... as I know, at least in 4.86, there are 2 local factions: Interspace Commerce and Liberty Security Force and also 2 bases: Renzu Shipyards and Wall Street Station.
Now I saw that in 4.87, Oita will be connected only with Kusari house and I suppose that Liberty Security Force will not remain in this system, right!? So... in 4.87, what local factions we could see in Oita system?
L.E. - Also, in its story (4.86v), Oita system is considered a home of the Independent Neuralnet Division (still a faction with origins in Liberty). So... what story will have this system? And how will be made elimination of the LSF faction from Oita system?
