Raiding a Planet. Could it even be poissible?

[ab357]

As I tirelessly search the rumors looking for a Templar Officer I wondered about being able to raid a enemy Faction's Stardock, etc.

So I'm wondering if we can force our way onto their planets to fulfill contracts, there must not be interplanetary defense that prevents enemy ships from landing.

If we can land, how about a "Raid" unlock so that you can go to enemy planets to pick up available Officers, ship upgrades etc. Since we can even recruit in their Spice Halls, would it be possible to get to where the available Officers are?

It's probably been discussed already. Of course if it would require an Unlock, I would like it to be available to players like me that primarily play Normal Mode. Perhaps one of the "future unlocks" that are listed for many Awards in Normal.

As reputation gets negative, you get barred from the palace, star dock and exchange. I think the point is that these areas have only one entrance which is guarded by the faction so if you were to try and enter they would catch you. Now, a feature could be added to try and sneak in, but then there would need to be the possibility of getting caught. Which, given your negative rank, would result in death. And a lot of unhappy players. For that reason, I don't think it's very likely.

Yeah, getting caught and thrown off the planet or imprisoned is meaningless. So IF it even could be programmed in, Permadeath would have to be the penalty.
