Boat League Idea

So I've been thinking of possible leagues we could do once full release of POE2 comes out, and a concept came to mind that could be executed in 2 ways that could both be awesome.

1) Harbingers return, but this time we go through their portal (space theme)
2) War breaks out between the Kalguuran's and Karui and possibly a 3rd faction (boat theme)

Both themes could have a similar concept. Imagine something like helldivers 2, where factions (either multiple harbinger factions or the warring factions on Wraeclast) are vying for control of a territory, and similar to HD2, there's a contribution/influence in the areas that we as a community (or solo in SSF) have to work to fight against. As a community, we have a fulfillment meter and a time limit, and if we succeed, we all get a reward (like 10c or something) baseline, but each player can have an individual contribution bar. Say it progresses to like 50-60 objectives (or some other fair and balanced number). You fill the bar like a kirac pass, and get currencies related to that faction (Tattoos, runes, etc), and when you fill it you get a dopamine hit of something like a Power Rune, or possibly spawn a boss that everyone who contributed to the effort can fight. Idk we're just cooking at this point.

In the Wraeclast version, you could actually do the boat stuff (now that they've put a hideout in the game with boats), but you could add random events and sail to the islands (something like Sea of Thieves or Bloxfruits for the kids) and do ship battles and steal loot (revenge for the shipping risk in Settlers of Kalguur)

In the harbinger version, we could totally go spacy and sci-fi. Either way this isn't fully fleshed out but I really wanted to put this down somewhere and get some feedback.

Another Idea,

You can align with one of the three factions and then just make it a league-wide BPL. Massive content train could come from that.
I think it would be neat if future leagues were manifested as different faction territories "somewhere out there" on the Atlas.

Or if the Atlas, that already looks a bit like Civ, actually had a bit of a Civ meta-game with boat league trading and travel and exploration right on the Atlas.

... an Exile can dream ...

until then, have fun Friday!
