I just had a mad idea, so here goes.
Basicly you know when you loose a colony, loyalty on it is decreased by 50%.
Well what if there was a new future for this game, so like for every defence you win your border colonies recieve +5 loyalty? that way even guards can max teir loyalty and people will be actually inclined to build a fleet, instead of being free border :)
Anyways just a mad idea...
