DSE is the only Liberty lawful mining faction and clearing up the rubbish from the Texas Incident is gone as well.
Will these be able to be relocated? Or compensated? The RP around mining Premium Scrap is now shot to pieces.
I've spent the last 18 months helping re-stock, nurture and care for Beaumont Spire and find out today I can now no longer dock at a friendly station! Not to mention the arbitrary removal of the premium scrap mining field. Way to go in pointlessly ruining the Texas system for junkers. Hopefully these egregious issues will be addressed very soon.

Junkers mined all premium scrap from Texas. Won in that terrible fight against scrap in Texas. New scrap and salvage fields call us. Time come to discloack over 90000 Wreckers and salvage Bering. You see separatists or union ship? Just salvage their armor and steal engine while they sleep.
POB Could be relocated due to mining changes, but I doubt that it will happen to POB having station's name included. It's up to Marauders to decide what to do with their POB.

Looks like a perfect way to increase Junker playerbase!
It's bad decision for many reasons. But mainly because Texas and especially Beaumont are easily accessible for new players via the trade lanes and under Liberty's protection. In effect Texas is a junker home system if you take into account the long history of the Spire, the number of scrap fields and the dark beauty of the Pequena Negra. By comparison, Bering is a disputed dangerous border system without scrap fields of any description and the new story line is forced to say the least. A mistake by the devs - not least for aesthetic reasons!

It's interesting how devs are essentially forcing players to a system that not only has the worst design but is also one of the ugliest in the game and on top of that has activity blocking POBs everywhere.
