There is also another angle about the warzone thing.
Who does this base serve? Why does it exist?
A freeport for mollies? Why do they need it, why do they care? Why would you risk putting a base there, risk your own reputation being slashed hostile for all of Bretonia just to serve a freeport for the mollies?
Anyone who enters past the blockade is breaking the law, naturally making them hostile to Bretonia as they go on. Freelancers and other random entitites wouldn't do that without heavy consideration for the ramifications of that, having an entire house and possible allies putting a mark on you?
What did this base even gain? RPA/Mollies don't need it, Bretonia certainly doesn't care for it. There is also not a huge market for random freelancers and such that want to break the Bretonian laws but also do not want to go to the Mollies.
