Remove POB regulation double standards from rules

[Jack_Henderson]

Yes, double standards and somewhat not cool.

However, PoBs need protection against Houses that have just extended their influence too far into what is meant to be "not really controlled" space. You named the Omega connection that you would like to police properly, and that is not what it is meant to be. But we likely disagree there, and likely all House players would love the Borderworlds to just be "their space". The rule changes however support my version.

I think the rules are fine.
Let's look at it gameplay-wise.

Who can shoot a Sair fleet sieging a base in Omega Borderworlds? Bretonia, Rheinland, Hessians, IMG, DHC, Kruger... a lot of factions.
Now, let's say a BAF fleet is sieging a base in Omega Borderworld: Rheinland won't shoot, DHC, Kruger, IMG won't, Hessians won't.

What I am saying is: House fleets are shot at a lot less (because it would have consequences), while unlawful fleets are shot at by a lot more people without any consequences.

That's why I think we do not need a change.
The obvious double standards come with more enemies that will try to kill you and the lack of consequences for killing the sieging force.

Edit:

For obvious trolly and idiotic base placement... other solutions are a lot better than shooting. The examples you named defy logic, realism and likely do not even warrant the waste of time of a siege. One post should be enough to deal with it.
