Dominions on Planets Really Close to Each Other?

[Liliane]

Hello!

Looking at the map and inspecting it thoroughly made a little question pop into my head. What about the planets which are in the same star system or really near to each other? How would their dominions be held? Will the two planets both be gained at the dominion or would they need to be dominioned separately?

A few planets are like that - Rhommamool and Osarian, which are twin planets; Ylesia and Nyrvana, which are both in the same system; Tythe and Nelvaan, which are really close to each other; and others.

I know a case when Nal Hutta and Nar Shaddaa, even though the latter was a moon of the former, were controlled by different factions (if I remember correctly), but these two also have separate stars on the map. The examples above are marked with only one star on the map.

So how are these things handled?

I might as well add that my own guess was that both planets will be acquired, but just wanted to be sure.

The simple answer is what ever tef feels like doing when he corrects the map. This is the same issue alot of things cover where you dominion a planet where to avoid all other planets Tef has to circle around and sometimes he just shrugs andd adds those too. Its a matter of how difficult or time consuming it becomes and sometimes its just better to add both planets than have to make such minut alterations to the map to only keep one of the two planets are quite literally on top of eachother separate influence wise. Which it also makes IC sense if you think about it. If you have influence over Planet A, and Planet B is that close IC wise that trade and movement through their space is inevitable, it makes sense that the influence would extend to Planet B too. If that makes sense.

But im not staff or Tef, so i could be dead wrong

One does not simply understand what goes on in Tefka's mind.

Sometimes you get a free planet, sometimes you don't. Welcome to Chaos.

Hmph. Yeah, I guess then these things will just have to be done first and then see what he decides to do with it.

I believe he generally goes by manner of importance, such as when we conquered every planet around Tython and was left with a giant hole in the OS' tangled mess.

That and the fact no other planet you conquered was nearby it. Thus why it was brought up the point of two planets that were close together... But you probably are correct there, like say if someone dominion'd say Anaxes from Pantolomin.

The Rhommamool/Osarian system was jointly ownes by OP and the Republic up until its deatruction.

So there is some precedent there. Depends on Tef's mood.
