i would be happy to have 2 generic ships side by side and having to battle it out

as trader defender and pirate offence players

etc ideas.

+having unique loot as defending the traders and +unique loot by defending the pirates.

this should be a group quest thing that is qued and would only fire/go active when an enemy group would take the same quest...

YArrRRRR!!!

also having some NPCs in the mix would be cool and one group vs one group setting.

I wish I could say I read all that since you put so much effort into it.
Good luck!
