So, the question is, which corp will be the first to attempt to kill it.

A dread heavy one no doubt.

Eddz (and everyone who doesn't know for that matter...),

The outpost is there pretty much forever. You can't blow it up. What you can do is take it over. In order to do so (and correct me if I am wrong), you must first destroy any POS's in the system that are claiming sovereignty. Once that is done you can set up your own POS and claim the system, then move to take over the Outpost and it becomes yours.

The **** thing about outposts is that they rely on the POS's in the system for their sole defense. You can't put guns around it or anything. In that respect, they are just as susceptible to being camped as a normal station anywhere else.

Yes, we knew about the operation. ItÆs our job to know. No, we did not make any special effort to interfere in ASCN's deployment of it outside of our normal scope of operations. Had we managed to stop it, sure that would have been pretty ugly for ASCN. However, such a thing is much more valuable in its finished state.

So, the bottom line is that whoever builds an Outpost puts forth all of this amazing effort, but then someone else could come along and take it all away from them. I doubt it will be us, at least not now, but any alliance who deploys one of these things is painting a giant bulls-eye on their space that shows an enemy exactly where they can do the most damage.

I think it's awesome because it gives players a real reason to fight and live in 0.0 and, as Cyvok surely knows, Outposts are just the tip of the iceberg to true 0.0 colonization. This is just the first step. It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out.
