The crew had some good questions about Roedyn’s suggestions for nullsec, but if there are future space-controlling features like that it would make sense to attach them to the currently flag-waving TCU I suppose. It could be interesting to extend beyond nullsec as well – in FW there is a lot of talk about how dropping a citadel in a system is a more powerful way to assault it than a POS was. Similarly putting down citadels now in systems you control will make it a lot easier to maintain there if you lose it, rather than getting locked out of the NPC stations. I’m not convinced personally how much of problem there really is that needs a solution.
