That said, as long as it has a good picket system and a station, they are technically as safe as any other constellation. The problem that may arise from being this close to trade hubs is that it increases the likelihood of war targets bothering to swing by for a fight. So if the current war targets can field 5 - 10 people fleets on short notice, running too close to their usual hunting grounds might lead to stranded fleets and even if we don't lose ships due to our pickets, it still means we're stuck in station not running. | That said, as long as it has a good picket system and a station, they are technically as safe as any other constellation.

===== Easy way to check distance to trade hubs ===== | |||
It's not always easy to see connections on '''dotlan''' due to only seeing your region and the fact that you could be just one or two jumps from a completely different region. In slack you can use the {{co|slateblue|#scripts}} channel and utilize the {{co|slateblue|%route}} bot to check the distance from two systems. For example {{co|violet|%route stacmon amarr}} and {{co|violet|%route stacmon jita}}. | |||
