The VCU or Victorial Claim Unit is a new version of the TCU or Territorial Claim Unit. It is available for corporations only to use to claim sovereignty over null sec systems.
The catch is that the VCU can only be used in VCU areas of null: portions of null sec (most likely surrounding lowsec) will have to be replaced by this system, meaning the current owning alliances will have to re-locate.
VCU systems will hopefully attract newbros and minor corporations into nullsec and give them opportunities of owning systems thereby improving player retention.
VCUs will have several marked differences from TCUs, but let’s not give too much away right now
The point is this is a discussion forum and it isn’t needed for me to explain everything about what I think, at the end of the day the exchange of ideas between everyone who wishes to take part in the discussion is what matters.
If you are making a suggestion to add something to the game, I’m going to expect more than just “it’s a thing that does stuff”. Especially when it’s a new variation of a existing mechanic. How does it differ from the current one? How are you limiting it to new corps/alliances? How are you planning on making sure it’s not abused by the current nullsec-owners?
Currently this is just throwing â– â– â– â– at the wall and seeing what sticks.
