I like the concept of the idea but not sure I follow it completely.(sp)

Lets say Empire has an outpost somewhere populated by Empire type NPCs. Scion comes and raids, taking over the outpost so now it belongs to Scion? What, other than territory would a cabal get out of it? Perhaps their cabals powers are stronger the more territory they have? Tougher NPCs/Inners/Outers/Pets etc.

It sounds like it might be a lot of fun, but with the supossedly "massive logins and outs" that are supossedly going on "all the time" what would people gain from this idea?
