There are a new set of rules governing BvB which are coming into the game. The code is currently on the test server, and will probably be patched live next weekend.

The changes are as follows:

- Add 2 base slots per gal for a team for every owned galaxy they have bordering
- For owned galaxies, limit the number of bases for other teams based on the number of bordering owned galaxies.
- Add a check for transferring and capping bases for the galaxy slots
- When a player is trying to join a team, check to make sure the number of team bases in any galaxy wouldn't exceed the limit.
- Make any bases that exceed the gal limit and are no longer allowed to be there because there aren't any neighboring owned galaxies become abandoned. As long as there's at least one bordering owned gal, that team can keep their bases there.
- Add the number of slots that a kit takes to the base kit item description
- Add a message when you deploy a base to tell you how many slots you have
- Add a /baseslots command to tell you how many slots you have

Please test these changes out on test which is a recent copy of the live universe. I expect lots of destruction and mayhem and welcome feedback.
