A Topic On Guard Systems

[Akura]

And is the SCRA system a guard system?

Hard to say. It's the SCRA home system, with the SCRA NPC Faction, but the SCRA don't have a guard, and the system definately isn't a guard system. It's got regular base and fits in with RP.

A guard base would be suitable. Perhaps a large, multi-part (so you can buy more than 3 ships) station with battleship slaying turrets on it?

Imagine how imposing Buffalo would be if it was 4 times the size and armed to the teeth.

The whole guard systems system (uhm...) is really redundant and highly annoying. The idea of factions used for RP is/was good but its barely used. Some of them even only have one tiny station and some generic planet in them, such as Saar, Salisburry (is that the BAF guard system?) and are pretty much pointless.
Thats why AGS asked for a redesign of Saar and Duesseldorf, especially the first will change a lot and will be open for everyone to visit who isn't hostile to us.
The thing that annoys me the most though is the equipment thing. Why in blazes are things like UAU8s and SNACs, scanners, thrusters,... only availiable in guard Systems? Its generic equipment for christs sake. If I set up a Rheinland char, I have to go to Coronado to get my stuff, if I want a minirazor or SNAC in addition, I have to visit another place at the other end of the galaxy...same for every /restart, its just silly having to pedal through the galaxy thrice just to buy the things everyone has and desperately needs to be able to keep up with everyone else.
Why can't SNACs be sold were bombers are (like the bomber guns). Why can't every Freeport and house capital planet sell all the generic top tier stuff? Just to make owners of generic IDs spend hours to set up ships? Thank you very much.

A wild goose chase (RP story)

Agreed with this idea, every time I fly into the Corsair Guard systems I enjoy looking around, they're exciting to look at, as well as other guard systems, such as O-85, but every time you go through them, and see no one in them, it just feels like such a waste, if there is a way to alleviate that and bring some life to those systems, then I'm all for it.

Guard Systems should buy and sell faction specific items. I.e the GMG guard system should be a great place to buy H-fuel, and to sell Deuterium. BUT should you be not friendly with the GMG, its gonnabe no fun and a place of ultimate pain.

I'd like to see no guard bases at all. Just systems that are really for that faction and its RP.

Guard ID's I like, keep them.

I don't mind guard bases but the fact that a base needs to come with a whole system I don't like

A guard base would be enough
