Base Raiding Etiquette?
[ QUOTE ]
I dont't think you get the choice whether or not to place the IoP. I'm fairly sure that you can't run the trial without having a raidable base, and the IoP just appears in the vault room when you're finished.

I suspect the IoP will replace the IoP base once the TF is succesfully finished. I guess the IoP base needs to be put into the vault beforehand. (I cant think of any other use for the IoP base)
When we did it on test, it just kinda appeared hovering above the base. I have some screenshots somewhere, I think.

Well the first thing I generally look for is the Power Generator. Take that out and you take out everything. Why destory it all seperately?

That's the thing that got me about bases, they might be the prettiest of bases, but it means SFA if your enemy pops his head round the corner and nukes your power generator while your guards are wondering what to do with the salvage in the corner.

One other thing I heard/read (hopefully true) is it doesnt have to be your own sg. Other members can join in but ofcourse they wont get the IoP.

That would make sense to me, thinking about it now. If the raid is along the lines as those regular SG Mission computer missions, you should be able to take anyone you want with you, right? Er, that's assuming that the regular missions you can take anyone in with you, providing you let them into your base...
That would work well for those SGs with a coalition to their retired lvl 50 group, so that they won't need to move their 50s around to do the trial and pick up an IoP.
Would also mean the roving band of IoP picker uppers wouldn't have to leave their SG either.
I wonder, if this works, and the IoP goes to the SG who's base it was started in (basically), does the prestige get split between the SGs that participated?
Shrug.

Since other coalition members can use the SGs own telepads, and the TF propably starts at the raid telepad, I suspect it could be possible for at least coalition members to join the raid, but Im of course only guessing.

I'm wondering about this now. When doing the IoP TF, do you have to 'sign on' like when organising a raid? That would mean only SG members would have the option. And isn't a regular raid limited to 16 per side? Hmm.
Shrug.
Anyone want to try a base raid on test tonight?
oops
