because clearly ascendancy are the only ones that can pull off "forts". seriously loling irl if you're gonna use the "no forts" argument against any solution that prevents the "fencing" you've complained about.
this also depends on the structure. you can set up a CT cluster for example. lets use C5. within C5 because they have 72 members, they have 9 galaxies of 8 members each. from there you can:
- either ban in gal defending and only allow in cluster defense (at -1 or -2 eta)
- only allow in gal defending (even though the whole cluster is one alliance)
- only allow a single alliance to hit more than one galaxy simultaneously by first declaring war on CT (Apprime targeting CT for instance).
- insert more craziness here
the point is, there are not multiple alliances within a galaxy thus leading to "fencing" and shit stagnant politics that keep being complained about every single round.

what about the select few "random galaxies" that end up with 1 member of each alliance, or 1 member of the top 3? its "random" remember? need i remind people how some always seemed to cycle their shit random exiles in the old bp system just to get worse planets while others never had to exile once? quite possibly the outcome would be even more shit politics.

completely random also implies that exiling will be disabled (hence the whole
random thing). otherwise you'll get people like yourself whining how some people managed to exile and create forts while you were stuck in a shitty random galaxy.
