Ok so you are master Politician, where do you go now?
Well how about an elite profession? If you are MAster Politician, Mayor of a city you can run for Govoner of the planet you reside. if elected it opens a new skill tree for Gov. Maybe not a full tree like all the rest but a few branches.
The election for this is monthly and everyone that is a resident in a city on the planet votes in a email election.
The Gov. of the month also has the option to move the Capital of the planet to his hometown. It would reside there till he lost the election, unless the new gov wants to leave it where it is.
If an Imp wins he can as part of a new tree bring more troops, more crackdown, maybe have the ability at some level to place garrisons in citys.
Now, not everyone is going to want to do this, i would suspect there are only a handful of the present mayors that would want to give up more skill points for something like this. I would in a heatbeat.
This is just something i thought of while i was out mowing the grass for the past 2 hours. (gives you time to think of things lol)
Anyway, just a thought, might be a good thing for trying to bring the GCW into player cities more.

They have to fixe the point for mayor in the first place...all the skill points wasted to run a city is crazy...Moyors have to deal with having houses come in and stay in there city..making sure there taxes are enough to pay for the city if not..out from his own pocket....My city cost me $500,000+ a week and my taxes are set to 30% and a $2000 fee each for just over 100 people in our city and we are still losing money hand over fist that i have to shell out for every week....If i rase the tax more people cry about it.....
I love having a city but to waste more points then i already have for Taking over the planet...NO WAY.....but just having a vote for any mayor holding a city at the capital of that planetfor the title would be somthing i would like.
So how would it work?
Each mayor on the planets name would show up at the Capital City of thatplanet.
Anyone could vote for there favotate mayor at the terminal...once a week the mayor with the most votes wins (the terminal remembers who voted for who indefenatly(so that people only have to VOTE ONCE)unless they change there vote it remains the same).....so the only way to win is to have the most votes and the only way to beat out the governer is to get more votes for another Mayor.

Thats what i was figuring how it would work.
As for skill points , only the ones like myself who like this profession and want to spend the skill points on it would run for office. Lik on LOK on my server, i cant think of anyone but myself that would want this, I might be wrong.
It would give your citizens something to be proud of if their mayor became the gov and their city became the capital. Maybe have a few capital city structures that can be placed, like a Capital Building, it moves with the Gov, Maybe a Library building stays as a bonus to the city if the captial moves, etc.

This might be a nice way to give those city shuttle ports the ability to function as starports for as long as that city is considered the capital. Another thing that might be nice is that a random group of the generic mission NPCs flood your town, just to add flavor to it.
Or perhaps, a series of theme park styled NPCs who give tiered missions for decent loot depending on faction and the faction of your mayor. This would actually encourage people to visit your town just to do those missions, and it might help out your local economy by having more people clone at your clone tank, use your shuttles, buy supplies at local vendors, etc. Maybe have it give a badge, and if X % of your citizens get the badge, you get a unique decorative structure, like a random skyscraper, or the escape pod, or whatever.

Hey thats a really neat idea, i like the Quest NPCs even if it were jsut that, but the rest of what you said would be awesome!
I would really like to see some unique city strucutres given from a quest that only a politician can do.
