Adding Pirate IFF'd Satellites to the Darkside of (Capital) Planets

[Sabru]

We could use the same big red cross that Tomioka has.

now that's an idea. exists only ooRP as a representation of sneaking onto the planet through the (inevitable) gaps in security that any big, heavily occupied planet would have.

@"WPeregrine" AFC is only a player faction without indies, thus doesnt have much bearing in this debate. As for junkers, aren't there comparatively enough junkers these days?

smuggling points would actually allow other factions to have smuggling abilities without needing to overpay or travel a long distance to a neutral or friendly station to acquire things, let alone smuggling things from allied factions to make money. by giving an easier option so unlawfuls can smuggle for profit, you might increase activity and playerbase a bit.

Think Hogosha smuggling things from Bretonia, Junkers smuggling things from Kusari or HF smuggling things from Liberty. These are just a few examples.

Sure, the economy might need tweaking but more unlawfuls smuggling around means more stuff for lawfuls, bunters etc to do around houses and borderworlds instead of roaming generally about. Then you might also have rival unlawfuls raiding enemy convoys.
