Base balance and other such matters

[Trogdor]

I think we as a community need to decide whether we want
1) vulnerable bases that are intended to be pvp targets, but don't take hundreds of hours' worth of work to build; the 'expendable base'
or
2) invulnerable or nigh-invulnerable bases that take an enormous effort to construct that reflects the dedication and desire of the owners/builders to make them 'permanent'

Right now we have something of an unhappy medium.
