# System Sovereignty is required to build an Outpost. Starbases only count towards System Sovereignty 24 hours after it is deployed and current System Sovereign gets an EVEmail when a new Starbase is deployed.
# Outposts and Conquerable stations now follow the same rules. System Sovereignty, acquired by having the most Starbases deployed in a Solar System, enables Starbases to fully power an Outposts or Conquerable stations shield recharge, making it invulnerable. You must either acquire Sovereignty by deploying more Starbases than the opponent or destroy his Starbases so that he looses Sovereignty. Loosing Sovereignty to an attacker or if a Solar System has no Sovereign will render the Outpost vulnerable to attack.
My questions are:
1.do I need an alliance to hold system sovereignty or is the most POS'es under a corporation's hold enough to claim the system?
2. Do POS's with different sized Control Towers still all count toward 1 when calculating sovereignty?
If this information is available somewhere else, I apologize for not finding it and you may direct me to the right place and hide this thread in a corner.
Thank you! |

These questions seem to be coming up alot, can a dev please make a sticky on this issue?
Also, where can outposts be anchored at? Only around moons like POS's or anywhere in a system or what?

I would like to have a DEV tell me this as it seems its a little comfusing on the blog as to the sovereignty issue. I dont see one good reason why a corp shouldnt receive the 25% reduction in pos fuel. We have held our system for over 4 months against a few Alliances that dont like us. But yet we pervail. Why shouldn't we receive the bonus. |

Because those that recieve a bonus have drenched themselves with a giant red paint bucket (called an alliance.) They have a character skilled enough to create the alliance paid the 1 billion isk to make one. And have moved away from any other soveriegn systems (unclaimed 0.0) to make their alliance appear on any map. That's why someone who isn't in an alliance / jumped through those hoops doesn't get the bonsus.

I was looking for a dev's answer as to the question not your opinion. To say that my corp that has defended against 30-1 odds doesnt deserve the bonus is upsurd. If you are in an unclaimed system and you are able to maitain your hold on that system you should be allowed the right to claim it. That would make the game more intestesting.
Plus, coming into a system with my corp name on it would just turn me on.

Right, if holding a system for a month or two would mean you could claim it then we could claim half of eve if we wanted.
The claim is earned by a combined effort of military might, logistical prowess, financial ability, and being able to survive even with that red target on your ass called an IGA.
If you want your corp to hold those systems, simply start an alliance with just your corp in it. The system is fine, since yesterday at least three new alliances exist that did not before. You knwo why ? Because now there is reason to, incentive to take the risk of calling attention upon your claims.
If you can defend so well, you shouldn;t be afraid to form that iga now should you ?

Basically snigg has a certain pride in being able to operate and do what it does without being a mega corp or being part of an alliance.
The fact that you MUST become an alliance to claim a system you've defended and learned to call home for a while now grates a little.

The forums are not your personal chatting palce with the devs. You are not going to get a dev response just because you want one. Instead, you're going to get forum-goers posting their opinions because guess what.. that's what we do on the forums. If you don't like it, nobody is forcing you to post.
Your corp may be performing admirably defending one system but this is all a matter of scale. One corp and one system is too small a scale to warrant a special bonus. The devs have decided to encourage people to form alliances and claim space with the introduction of player-alliance sovereinty, fuel decreases and outposts and the scale of the entire operation is on an alliance/regional basis. It will never be applied to individual corps holding individual systems, no matter how great an achievement that is, because that's far too small a scale to matter. They want to make it easier for an alliance to hold an entire region, not for one corp to build POS in their single system and they certainly will not rename the system after your corp.
If you want to be a part of something special, you'd better make sure the scale is huge. Otherwise, nobody really cares. It's a little sad but it's true.
