Time that the deployment system was replaced with...

[psijaka]

I don't know why they have cocked up something that should be so simple. Should always be able to spawn at:

-the 4 nearest outposts/sunderers
-the outpost that has the most action involving your empire
-the warpgate
-and up to 3 outposts needing reinforcements.

If we had this I wouldn't have suggested a replacement (although I still like the idea of teleporting along the lattice lines and Black Ops to disrupt the teleport link).
