Personal opinion: Poole contains WEIRD STUFF from "Londonderry" which used to be the guard system. Naturally, there is no reason for this system to contain more Molly bases than Dublin. It should be moved to Dublin in one capacity or the other.
Fort Coleraine and Kilrea Orbital Station kind of make sense, as Mollys got no planet and have to host population in star cities. Arranmore Base also fills that niche and those two more or less duplicate it. Coleraine and Kilrea could be merged into Arranmore, making it more into GMG's Niigata Star City.
Foyle Shipyard is Foyle Shipyard, what can I say? Should also be in Dublin, I suppose.
Poole should contain a simple and small asteroid base if Mollys choose to raid the system. But the main and notable assets should be located in Dublin.

I don't quite know why exactly Mollys would want to have a base there, they are rebel separatist miners that want to take Dublin. It's not even piracy justification since Newcastle is an isolated system and even if jumpgate would be fixed it's still in the corner. I think Coalition could have Mull with the extension removed. Mollys spread all around Bretonia map is weird and they should be more localized and not being basically Bretonian LR.
Mainline Molly operations should be in systems that border Dublin directly and that can be used to support Dublin efforts. Leeds - New London - Poole - Exeter - Aquitaine.

Looking forward to seeing where things go.
They are moved to hostile so they know that we reserve right to open fire, just to avoid drama. As I said they will be a very low priority target. We want to distant from both "just local political opposition" and "just local pirate man" type of deal. Both are boring and there are better options to play such things in the same ZOI. The coalition can go for all Bretonia workers' right campaign, Gaias are green political opposition and Corsairs with Outcasts could fill the piracy niche.
Mollys have a very unique niche of local separatism, pretty much the only thing that can make them look actually interesting and outstanding compared to other local unlawfuls.
Everyone who wants to discuss why Coalition is good or bad can do so in Coalition feedback threads. This thread is about Mollys.
