What happens when faction loses all of its planetary holdings?

That's likely never to happen.

An assault of that scale would require a faction to have a playerbase the size of Planetside 2's player base, and Battletech/Mechwarrior is far too niche to attract that kind of crowd.

Are you sure? Because capital planets have the "capture values" assigned to them.

Clan territories are also about 1/4 the size of most of the IS territories, so they're that much easier to take. I meant a faction like Kurita, Steiner or Davion losing all it's planets is likely to never happen, cause they're just too damn big.
