Solution for POBs in mining areas: use the "Entered Freeport NFZ" messaging system

[DSE|=]

Bretonia has put a beacon to highlight the centre of the gold field in Dublin. It is exactly 10km from the JH to New London. Perhaps an advisory saying something like... "This field is subject to Bretonian Law. Read and heed the rules. No construction without permission".

Taxing them would also work. There will always be those among us who will deliberately plant an illegal base there for the RP knowing it will be destroyed. Perhaps a view that any illegal, unsanctioned base in a mine field is subject to immediate destruction, by anyone.

But they do attract the flies (pirates, hustlers etc) which makes for some fun RP interplay.
