NPC Planets & Colonies

[Veedeejem!]

Just a quick suggestion that i came up with reading some other posts about npc planets / bot planets etc etc.
Wouldn't it be cool to have npc planets that can be conquered.
Ever since I started to play pa (and that was in r4 or something) I've always wanted to conquer a planet and claim it as my own.
So what i'm suggesting now is to have npc planets that only build a form of pds and init roids that you can conquer and colonise as a 2nd planet.
The options for the 2nd planet would be somewhat limited though, they should only be used for mining resources and build some pds.
There should be room for 1 fleet to defend your colony, traveltime from your homeplanet to your colony takes 6 ticks and no fleets can be launched from your colony except to your homeplanet.

Discuss plz

all sounds a little e m p i r e q u e s t to me. Think this has been suggested time and time again. Interesting idea though.

Sound like a cool idea, but don't like the idea of having a second planet. So i don't think it should be used during a normal round. Wouldn't mind npc planets, so that players in dead gals could get a chance to grow, and having someone to launch at.

Tbh, i think there would be to much problems with npc-planets in a normal round. What i would like instead, would be the possiblity to exchange your planet with anyone you can manage to cap 25% roids from during havoc, or maybe a speedgame with something like "cap the planet" where the one that manage to exchange planets the most would win, but no point if you only cap back an earlier planet.
