Thanks for your feedback and input about the current activities regarding the Blood Dragons.
First off I would like to say that this faction was not involved in the situation in Kepler at all, in fact we have a pretty good relationship with the factions that owned the PoBs so it wouldn’t have made any sense for us to get involved. Secondly it was Kusari border worlds so would not have been of huge concern to us anyway.
I’m regards to the bit actually about us then I completely understand what you are saying that it seems a bit out of order just finding and destroying peoples hard work because we can. So there are a few reasons we have done this on occasion which I will elaborate now and hopefully it’ll give you a better idea behind the inRp and OORP motivations.
InRP the Blood Dragons see themselves as the true rulers of Kusari and as such they behave in general just like any house military would do albeit slightly more ruthless you can’t forget we are revolutionaries. So in this respect it is an unauthorised construction within Blood Dragon space most houses also share this stance with random PoBs.
I would secondly like to point out that the attack declaration is an OORP post so just because it is declared doesn’t mean it will immediately be killed as soon as the day is up. So the actual RP stuff will continue to grow until the siege is over.
There is also an OORP motivation I will say not regarding this PoB but them in general. We can assume this is a hostile base because otherwise an ally would have contacted us. So we know it is an enemy off the bat and then there is the rate at which PoBs become unmanageable for anybody without 15-20 heavy capital ships. You only have to take a look at Nagano to see the core 4 PoB with approximately 7 weapon platforms that in my year or so as a heavy Kusarian player has not once seen a single person use. That base is there for the sake of being there it adds nothing to RP and it untouchable without half of the average player base banding together to remove it.
Finally I have had several PoBs destroyed in my time on the server some through neglect and others due to attacks but I have always enjoyed that last minute supply trying to defend it and the activity that comes along with it. Kusari struggles for activity on a good day and the occasional siege does it some good.
I hope this answer gives the result you were looking for we have no intention of just blowing things up to upset people so if this is causing real distress for the owner I suggest they contact me (Rantari) on discord and we can discuss alternative routes for this to go down.
