Move Andunor's Portal

This is a suggestion which many likely wont like, but I feel it would be better for Andunor and UD players.

Short form, move the Hub portal out of the Hub. Move it to the map just past the Deep Gate, the same map that has the entrance to the bonefields. Perhaps give it a landing dias and make that area secure from NPC enemies. Maybe even some other location.

Longer reasoning! Andunor has an issue where characters portal watch. While the hub is large, a lot of people associate the hub with just the eastern portal wing and ignore the rest of the hub. It's so central that there's not as much traffic of people moving through as say, Cordor or Guldorand. Simply having a short walk gives two things.

First, it spreads people out and makes the end location vary depending on need. It's not just portal in, and your right where you need to be.

Secondly, it allows some more subtle play. Right now, if anyone portals in or out almost anyone can see it. Everyone can see who leaves too. Anyone who enters is considered loosely "safe" due to the hub expectations and guards. Moving it just outside gives chances for ambush plays and stealth plays, which I think is always a good thing.
