Putting on it another planet (Mars or whatever) raises all kinds of exposition issues. ?I still don’t understand what’s the dramatic point of putting the conflict on a remote planet.
The primary dramatic problem he has to contend with, the core conflict of the plot, is arbitrating and/or exploiting the feud. ? I don’t see anything in that core conflict that couldn’t occur on a remote part of the earth, say, an island in the Pacific or in the Australian Outback. ?IOW: ?I don’t’ (yet) see what locating it on another planet brings to the story. ?(And locating it on earth would ?reduce the production budget, require little or no CGI.)
