well, just sayin, we really need to implement warp speed and responce speed and stuff. For example, it takes 20 hours to get from earth to ceres at 1c is around 20 hours. But 1c isnt normal warp speed, the norm could get to like, 3 or even 4c before needing SFW. Well, 3c will still take around 6 hours in that distance. WIth superfast warp, u could get up to like, 7c maybe? In that time, u can get across that distance in only 2 hours. but thats only earth and ceres. The longest recorded distance in RP is 10 ly to Epsilon Octanus (well, korriban, Ark, and GA's system could be further but theres no distance between Sol and those systems written anywhere yet. so...) anyways, travelling 10ly at 3c takes a whopping 40 months. Yeah. At 7c, it gets better at around 18 months. so yeah... long travel times.

Although we could do smtg limit FTL travel within systems or smtg, like gravitational pulls might prevent in system jumps at speeds above (for example, only 2c) (for warp attack stuff, it could probably be explained as overcharging the warp core or smtg to push it for a higher speed for a short period of time within system to get to a position to conduct a warp attack.)  and then the speeds we can go outside a system can be greater, like maybe even 20c? (which will travel 10 ly in around 6 months or a little longer.) that way, we could actually make it so people wont be able to keep just calling in reinforcements. (well, they can, just itll take longer.). and so people will have to make the best out of what they have.

Again, just an idea.
