So I was looking over the map update and realized something, figured I'd ask here to see if the issue had been formerly discussed and/or dismissed. Have we ever considered including hyperspace routes into the range for dominions? Let me give an example.
Currently, you can dominion one hex away without having to add an automatic 50 posts to the dominion to claim territory. What if that was modified to incorporate hyperspace routes in a rule such as this: Dominions completed from an initial point of a hyperspace route can extend two hexes away from the current domain, assuming the planetary dominion occurs within a hex containing the hyperspace route.
An example of this being implemented: The Mandalorians could dominion northeast, along the Hydian Way up to Ruria or Ession. The Republic could dominion south, from the Corellian Run, down to Triffis, Leimra, or Thaera. Similarly, from Denon, they could use the Hydian Way to stretch down into Kira, Seltos, Delta IV, etc. And for these examples, it would be that within 2 hexes would not require additional posts but then after that, would require an additional 50 per hex.
It's just an idea I was thinking about: would add value to locations that have hyperspace routes for the conquering nations, would improve the potential reach of major factions while also making them susceptible to cloudbreaking, and would potentially incorporate hyperlanes both into OOC and IC planning in a realistic/fun way.
