On the one hand, the risk of incursion pigs who are even more elitist than the ones we have now.
On the other hand, the incursion pigs we have now trying to run against full-strength Sleeper AI and getting their multi-billion-ISK pigboats shot and destroyed.
This is a hard decision. Perhaps you might expand more upon what "falling into Sleeper control" entails. |

So, it's only available in highsec then? In that case it should offer lower rewards than the current ones, which are still too lucrative for the complete lack of risk entailed. And there should be no sleeper loot or salvage or whatever it is WH guys make their money off of to avoid crashing that market.
The current incursion model yields no Sansha loot, no salvage, nothing. The only payout is ISK and LP, given after the incursion as a whole has been closed by destroying the mothership. |

You should.. probably.. reconsider the notion of bubbles being allowed in places that are temporarily null. They would persist even after the sec status was restored to something that does not allow bubbles.
I agree with the notion that letting the incursion last longer than absolutely necessary should have consequences, though. Sansha incursions should be looked at with this in mind as well. Such that the longer you let the incursion exist, the harder it is to clear (up to a point) and after a while gatecamps start happening and just get bigger and bigger until even a battleship is in trouble. Under such a mechanic, they should also not despawn until the mothership is cleared.
One more thing I've been meaning to address, although it's of little importance, is that I doubt something as advanced as Sleeper drones would need to resort to a "rudimentary" FTL drive. I'm sure with the remarkable technology they have control over (technology that our T3 ships represent only a very primitive, barbaric understanding of) that they could easily create and use Jump Drives that are capable of spanning double- and triple-digit distances (measured in LY) without needing a cyno or beacon on the other side. |
