A guildie and i were talking about how currently it makes more sense to have an opposing faction base than a same faction base... STILL..
(You get experience and faction from opposing faction bases at a much higher rate if you get enough of them)
Anyhow, add in the planet scoring system, and a little code.. and make it more important. If the empire owns a planet then they get the standard recruiters, flags, etc. and the right to place harvesters, etc Rebel harvesters are either highly taxed or condemned and rendered inoperable.
Same thing if the rebels own a planet.
There is an exception.... Smugglers.... since theyare supposed to well,smuggle, let them be the only ones able to traffic in resources and goods across faction lines. This would allow them some actual smuggling type action.
What do you guys think?

yeah it seems like a pretty good idea. but without many details on the dynamics of the system it's hard to say if it would be "eh, cool, or awesome".
but anything that lets us Smuggle would be nice. especially if the Smuggling was involved with the GCW.

yeah, but it should be expensive. You are getting goods that the enemy doesnt want you do have.. why would i let my enemyuse steel from my planetto build guns, sot hat they could shoot me.. i wouldnt.. unless i didnt know about it because the smugglers were smuggling

ehh.. i dunno the full details of how it would work etc.. but the rough idea i think is a good one to work from. basically make it an ability i would think like an option on the harv itself or something to forge the proper paperwork, etc to allow the harv to run.
it could maybe be a service.. where a person hires a smuggler to get their harv to operate by forging documents or bribing the right people..
Or can just be smuggler ability only where they actually place harvesters.. on planets owned by opposing faction, where others cannot
