At the moment you can only see the legion who locks your base, i thought it would be nice to see the other legions who are participating as well as just the legion who targeted your base.

Wow, great idea! +1.0 (not +1, because we're not allowed to post that  )

I kinda like it because it aids defending but kinda dont like it cause it reduces base fight tension for defenders so +0.5

I'm not sure how it would help anything unless your legion plans on hunting down everyone who's locked your base.

+1, locks always lacked this. But -0.1 because there are many other things (mainly bugs and flaws) that i'd like to see first

I like this suggestion. It really would make base battles more interesting for both sides involved. The defenders can have more choice on how they want to buff the base, having more data, and the attackers would, from what I've heard, like being able to actually have to fight off the legion of the base that their BP has shared to them.

I'm gonna -1 this. For an assault on larger bases, where there is sure to be retaliation it's better for the attacking legions (minus the locking legion) to remain secret.

Gonna have to agree here. i don't understand the reasoning here. most of the larger bases have legions that attack each other regularly anyway. if you have a basing partner that is back.stabbing your base using a proxy to lock it, wouldn't you rather know sooner than later ? that said, i am still mixed on the original suggestion. in AU, ANY member is allowed to confirm a lock provided by a basing partner, but that has resulted in having to arrange new trade pacts. if something like this gets put in and causes unnecessary drama in the game, then i would not support it, unless the new legion governance floated provides adequate tools to cover these types of diplomatic rows.

-1 While i understand the desire to know and agree it would be effective in helping defend, the reality is anyone who is active often enough long enough has a decent idea of who backs up who in basing fights and checking the bt will usually give you a idea as well based on the buffs players are using...
there is something that is interesting about the mystery/suspense of it....
lastly, as much as our base has gone down on occasion, defenders have the odds stacked in their favor as it is I think... yes you can go down (theoretically any base can go down) but do you know how much energy it takes even with monster hitters to take the hard bases out when they are online?
don't ask... i shoot my whole load of E at a base and i'm at about 500k damage on most of the ones I do that... there are hitters out there who do 1 mill then reload via trimatrix... i don't like being disabled but i dont begrudge the enemy when they work that hard.

Unless you are the one doing to stabbing... +1 from me. I think it would be nice for a legion who doesn't know who others base with to have another means to defend a base against attack.

I wouldn't mind people knowing what legions are locked on their base. For 99% of the people it will just be a curiosity thing since its a very small group of people who hunt down legions locked on their base.
Overall I think it's best kept as is but wouldn't complain if it was changed.

Yes. I really want to know if there are other legions helping attack my base.

I agree it would be nice idea to know all attacking legions.
Another idea would be to have defending legion brings its BP to help defending. Perhaps even to transfer all attacking and defending ships into separate instance so that they can also kill each other there.

Dan wants to keep bases and PvP separate. This is why we are allowed to hit bases with calming amps on.
We choose to go out of our way to hunt the people hitting our bases and it shouldn't be made any easier to hunt attackers.
