How about allowing small groups to place structures out in dead space, not anchored to anything? Make them mini-bases, something that has to be scanned down.
It could be nothing more than a large storage / refitting facility that can be moved fairly easily.
Maybe it could have useful modules you can add to it, but the more you add the larger the signature and the longer it takes to take down and move?
Perhaps they can upgrade to cloak (or minimize their sig radius) to stay off the radar as long as no one is at them?
The more I think about it, why not let anyone plant their own little cabin out on the frontier and live out of it. Lots of mission rats have their own private quarters - why can't players have them?
I've always wanted a place to call my own, but never wanted the logistical PITA of owning my own POS and having it so easily found by warping to all the moons in a system. |

Originally by: Rees Noturana
Originally by: Ya Huei I envision some sort of customizable (like t3 cruisers) sub cap ship with a limited hangar/cargo for holding ships and materials.
Maybe for the nomadic lifestyle option, which is also appealing. We can't really do a good nomad right now.
New class of ship - something that when you eject from it, you can anchor it and it becomes a mini-base. Anchor for corp or anchor personally - nobody without rights can unanchor it, but they can certainly shoot at it.

Brainstorm thought:
Make the smallholding folks subject to taxation of the local sov holder.
Suddenly their presence by conquering empires is desirable. Just the presence of lots of stakeholders might make it a system you want to own. You'd actually have sovereignty over something other than deadspace.
Conversely, the new sov holders could drive out the locals through over-taxation. Set the rate too high and nobody would want to live or rat there.
The tax could affect whatever fee it takes to maintain the small holding or acceleration gates, it could affect bounties / missions in the system. Specifics can be worked out... |
