Quote:Ideally (as I see it) the bases would be split over regional IFFs with the overarching Zoner ID/IFF being available for players that want to use it.
To continue the Tau example, FP 10 has the following rumor: "We get almost all our supplies from Freeport 6 in Tau-29. Most importantly, we receive Fertilizers for our biodome. In Return we ship Freeport 6 Alien Organisms from the Omicrons and Niobium mined by IMG in this system."
This indicates a clear cooperation between the two Freeports. Add in their proximity and I see no reason why they would need separate IFFs from each other. If FP-10 was ever declared war on by, say the Outcasts, then FP-6 would naturally be nervous as well.
This. It's no secret that I RP the administrator of Freeport 6, Blaine Chara. Keeping someone around that can play Freeport 10's admin? That's a challenge. I will say though that they have the same cast of characters around them although FP6 has to deal with Kusari more.
