Alright, with how Colonization currently is Anarchies are incredibly important but also so easily removed from systems thus making combat stabilisers and battle weapons harder to get, not to mention a certain building type being effectively useless when not in their hands.

I feel the idea's listed below should be implemented or something similiar be done to rectify this issue.

Pirate Outposts - these should always spawn with the anarchy faction in control of it, a democracy, corporation, feudal etc. Would never willingly build or occupy these outposts normally, this would make them more useful then just "tanking" security. (It also doesnt make sense for a pirate to show up to a pirate outposts and have the federation, alliance or empire welcoming them in)

Factions - either make it that retreats can only happen if theres more then 4 factions remaining, or alternatively, modify how native factions work and make factions native to systems that are colonized with them, yes im aware this is a big change, but somethings gotta change as anarchies are far to easy to eject from a system thats been colonised.

Anarchy BGS got FDev'd repeatedly over the years, this is the end result your seeing played out via colonisation.

Anarchy is well overdue for changes.

I agree, they need more protection and the pirate outpost being skewed in their favour

If there is room in the system, building a pirate outpost should generate one native anarchy if one isn't present already.

I have a system where other players took control of the bgs, I didn't mind/care until they retreated the Anarchy faction that I had in that system and now things are borked.

As architect when you build one of those it should make them native because it was by design.

So I just managed to get logged on and noticed that my colonies I had are gone and they aren’t showing me as the architect now. Is Frontier working on this issue? I know they have a lot on their plate right now

#

Well thank you for letting me know @brave moth. I appreciate that. I’ll restart my game now.

so either they stealthed it in or what, cause the anarchy in my current colonised system is at 1% and has been for a few days and isnt retreating, we have 4 factions here.

Ah, never mind they finally went into retreat after almost a week
