I have found myself wondering recently why corp HQ isn’t treated the same as starter-school station for the purposes of remote home station. Is there a reason for this? To arbitrate that a character should always have some corp system set as HQ and to deathclone/revive there regardless of the fact that renting a corp office means rented clone space is available whether you have it set as home or not? While these rules were set many, many years ago the nature of the game has changed substantially since then with things moving towards a more convenient clone management system. It was unthinkable to have two clones in the same station before but now we have this. So I think maybe the game could make another logical step towards allowing free and freely available switching of home station to a designated corp HQ, for the purposes of deathclone/respawn and thus close the loop on ridiculous “gotya” problems like forgetting to set up home station or not having JC available (with a clone available to launch to in the target space). Since we are prepared to accept that clones are freely interchangable anyway via JC, corpHQ home systems retaining clones on ice to always be available should a pod pilot elect to have the HQ become a home station makes sense. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/corp-hq-and-homestation-mechanics/346382)._
