COMPLETED CG Join Aisling Duval's Call To Arms (Combat)

It's the opposite - only the PF bonds count.
Does anyone have any advice for this CG? Not a great combat pilot here but I have never died this fast in my life. I keep getting jumped by multiple engineered ships simultaneously. I'm getting really tired of hearing "Warning, Shield Breach Attack. Shields Down. Eject, Eject, Eject" as fast as the game can play the audio files.
This CZ felt weird.
Usually I can cruise around with my sluggish Conda shield tank and pick out targets. But midway through the Cz or after about 30 min of Cz? Suddenly every enemy turned on me and targetted me. Suddenly my shields began to go down a lot faster than usual.
And no it wasn’t the spaceport firing at me. Since I’ve been very careful not to shoot at it.

Stop shooting at the megaship. If you hit the megaship it will respond with shield breach attacks
this is what happens when I leave the station...

Are you in open? Lots of gankers about.
No. I'm starting to think that something is not functioning as intended because this is way too consistent.
Probably, because the shield breach message should only happen if you shot at the megaship. Not from gankers
Do we even get anything extra for completing the bonus objectives like destroying spec ops and opposing correspondents?
Not from what I’ve seen so far.
Then there's just absolutely no point whatsoever. The spec ops team is even more bloated than the regular CZ targets. Best way to do this is just cycle through targets that are already halfway dead and finish them off.
As someone mentioned, the game log files could be checked to see if you got the warning from the station. (Some third-party programs make this much easier.)
I don't know if it will show that the station started shooting at you, though.
As mentioned, this usually happens when you accidently shoot the station. To recap: The journal is in "Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous" in your user's folder. Look for events surrounding the "died" event. In my case, it looks like this when I shot the station:
Code:

{ "timestamp":"2025-07-03T20:29:54Z", "event":"Died", "KillerName":"Obsidian Directive", "KillerShip":"megashipdocka" }Note the "KillerName" entry.
they all look like these with no mentions of the megaship (just showing the last two).
{ "timestamp":"2025-07-05T06:35:06Z", "event":"Died", "KillerName":"Ela Zajac", "KillerShip":"vulture", "KillerRank":"Competent" }
{ "timestamp":"2025-07-05T11:45:13Z", "event":"Died", "KillerName":"Timothy D Humphreys", "KillerShip":"ferdelance", "KillerRank":"Deadly" }
Spec ops maybe.
I don't think I've ever noticed that the radar contacts are three dimensional.
CZs have always had a bug where they can suddenly glitch and turn everyone, even friendlies, into hostiles. Only thing you can do is wake out and back in again to reset it.
Indeed, i found that out the hard way.
I have a Python Mk2 with grade 6 prismatics; Reinforced level 5, high Cap.
Also two Hull reinforcements, two module reinforcements, a cell bank, and five shield boosters.
Yet with this attack, my shields, and ship go down so fast, i don't even get the chance to run away.
I made it in the top 75 anyway.
I might switch to my Cobra Mk5, which is cheaper to rebuy, and can boost away a lot faster.
