' Wrote:Funny, the way I see it, anything less that a fully supported attack group should not be able to contend with a planets defences, I'd also like to see that same situation outside of major pirate bases.
In my opinion, that's absolutely right, but the players should be the planet's defenses. Not the NPCs.
EDIT: Well, another thing. Ever accidentally splash damage a friendly with a CD or torp? Not fun, and really annoying. Making NPC patrols stronger would only increase the irritation levels.
