Hey Cmdr. :) This is Elite veteran Imo writing ^^. Your Federal Assault Ship is able to survive in the hazardous resource extraction site: First of all, do not take any cargo into the res site or you will be overrun by pirate npc vessels. Second, do not pledge to a power. This will keep you safe too...
It matches the Mobius rules when two Cmdr both enter a conflict zone and when both did choose their faction to fight for and when they then begin to shoot each others when opponents in the conflict zone.
