I haven't been playing very long so I don't know if this already happens. I think there should be raids. Maybe every now and then computer players will group together, jump to another nation and raid one of the sectors.

can you elaborate on what you mean by raids?

We used to have npc pirates, that over and above intended design, would traverse the galaxy looking for prey, sometimes in overwhelming numbers. These npc pirates have since been disabled, while the developers review their functionality.

We have long had the Sedina hive, which at times will expand across Sedina, and even into neighboring systems. Two new expansionist type hives have also been recently discovered, appearing to closely resemble the behavior patterns of the Sedina hive. These, and the more typical system hives, will avoid stations, and are generally only found in asteroid sectors, with the exception of system queen and leviathan strongholds typically locating in an empty or uncharted sector. Nearby stations will issue missions in an attempt to recruit players to go deal with these incursions.

National npcs do not normally stage intentional raids on other nations, although some npc traders sometimes initiate fights when they happen to cross paths with a hated player. The exceptions can be found at the Itani/Serco border, where the respective nations are in conflict over perceived borders. Stations near this border will issue missions to recruit players to assist in these conflicts.

There also were attempts at blockading certain chokepoints in the universe against trade traffic by PC pirates, with varying results. However, these did not include invasion of enemy territory.

thx for letting me know

you could join the PCC and try to do a raid/blockade mission if you like.

This would only make sense with tons of players on.

Seems the new border skirmish might fit this profile quite nicely =)
