Idea: Linking Economy to Organized Full Scale Raids

[Gentlefood]

Biggest issues with this are that Military/Police can't be everywhere, there are a lot of stations, station defenses are fairly weak/inaccurate, and bombers can just spam it from out of range.

And honestly playing a Trader is frustrating enough, the amount of 'roleplay' they get subjected to often makes it not fun to begin with, and adding on the possibility that their time could be further wasted by making it so they have to pay more to get their trade commodity back, ie: they were destroyed or robbed for full cargo, or that they narrowly escaped from the pirate and the pirate's buddies decide to ruin his day by 'destroying' the station.

While I like the idea in general I just feel as if it can't be implemented properly or in a way that doesn't make roleplaying a trader ever more frustrating.
