wow, that sounds like an awesome idea. The MUD i code for has invasions from time to time where diffrent kinds of monsters storm the island heading for the main city, and the players must defend their wonderful island. But i see a couple of problem with the idea of constant invasions

It sounds like it would be VERY hard for newbies. i mean, from what it sounds like, they would be fighting the same things as everyone else. So i, perosnally, would make it so newbies would be protected from most of the big monsters, and maybe low and mid level would be protected from the really huge ones.

Also, i think exp just for surviving wouldnt be a bad idea, but i think you should still get exp for killing monsters. otherwise you could just level up by running around dogding all the monsters. So maybe you could also get exp for combat? and maybe a bit for acutally dealing the killing blow.

But yeah, sounds really awesome. follow your ideas!
