So after visiting the bar at the satellite station on Leeds, it seems that the Oubli was the main hurdle in any success against Gallia on the ground. Now that the ship cannot 'help' forces on the ground by turning landing zones or control centers into glass parking lots, an idea came to mind.
Instead of buffing a price, why not add BMM's to somewhere like Trafalgar in NL, even temporarily for an event or 'buff', so that people could use freighters to make repeated runs from Trafalgar to Leeds to help a 'new offensive' on the ground, which should see some more success now that there is no orbital bombardment option from the GRN. The price is fine, so even with just 500 cargo spaces, if the commodity was a little closer, it would be decently profitable. That just might make for a good freighter swarm of anyone looking to make the runs, and of course be a good catalyst for GRN and BAF forces to combat again. Freighters are small and fast, so might make for good use of LF interceptors, and keep the fights primarily snub based pvp. A fighter blockade, and freighers with possible fighter/gb escorts.
It could be similar to the way the temporary buff event went on over in Shikoku last week. The reason I suggest Trafalgar is so the best option is to come into Leeds via the JH there and not just skeet in from the Magellan jh in the nebula. Also it would be great so people could just go back and forth instead of having to go all the way back to The Ring (keeping the traffic focused in that area).
Rulewise I'd say makes sense to let the docking death ride for freighters, but perhaps not pvp death. Meaning if you make it past the blockade of GRN demanding your BMM's, you can undock after selling and continue, but will be fair game as soon as you're back in space. Then perhaps just let folks come back in another ship. Would be good for a couple hrs of mayhem I think!
