Manhattan Orbit Zone

[Lance_Uppercut]

It's the f---ing capital of Liberty... there should be no fire anywhere near it, and turrets on orbiting stations should realistically be overpowered for defense.
And why are the LPI/Navy NPC pilots patrolling the area officer/rookie levels. Shouldn't the "ace" levels be protecting the capital?

Just my take... seems dumb that it's "just another planet" with regard to defense.

bring-it-full-circle-edit:
New Toyko, New Berlin, New London, Manhattan, Malta, Crete, Marne, (and maybe Nevers? GR's capital isn't in .85)
...these are all planets that should be of extreme importance to their houses. They should always have the toughest NPC patrols, the strongest defense turrets, and for p-2-p RP, should have at least rhetorical rules like no-fire zones.

On the one hand, yes, these planets are the most populous, most busy ones in Sirius and need open access for successful business/commerce/transport.
On the other, they're freaking capitals and the seats of the house governments. Pirate shouldn't be allowed to camp the docking ring (I've seen this).
