Aliens killing transports without a demand is bad for gameplay

[Vendetta]

Why do Nomads deserve to be an exception to griefing?

They're not, but if you consider every hostile action that isn't done to excess griefing then there's a serious issue with how you perceive gameplay.

Feel free to propose alternate solutions vs transport killing cloaked OP battleships and caps supported by dual razor SHFs that undock 14k away from the field, as I don't think you've considered that as a factor. The people saying that getting insta-gibbed by Capital ships and getting locked out of mining make for a thrilling experience, make me think they haven't actually played in the Omicrons recently. And as people have clearly, obviously, stated, why go through all that effort just to mine when there are dozens of other routes you can pick with considerably less risk? The Omicrons are the only region with an ID(s) that can freely kill transports in every ship class without needing to make a demand and without restriction.

Hire escorts. Establish security. "why bother?" is just as bad of an attitude. If you never bother, you miss out on opportunities of activity generation. Your mining zone in the Omicrons is under attack by the Nomads? Then why isn't The Core addressing the matter? Protect your territory. Saying it's protected versus actually protecting it are two different things, and one has way more weight than the other in the short and long term.

Don't want to get insta-killed? Expect that going there is going to be dangerous and that you are likely to get shot. Go prepared.

Better luck next time, bud.
