Way to positively exercise those forum permissions, Mar!
I like seeing others getting involved in posting items here.
There's some speculation that they will follow the same model that PW uses for Faction Bases in Forsaken World. Maybe... but I don't think it can be a one-for-one translation. The games appeal to different audiences and have different design philosophies.
Time will tell if this is a love letter from Cryptic to its' fans or just another money grab by PW.
I'd go with some sort of middle ground.
It's PW. Bases won't be cheap. Especially not full starbases. But I figure the features will be designed by Cryptic.
