There doesn't really seem to be any way to actually attack another power and force them to lose control of systems.

I'm not sure power can collapse even with 5th column actions. If you have all systems fortified, you have solid +CC. It's enough to expand at the moment. I don't now how many spoiled eggs power needs to start collapsing, when all systems are fortified and undermined. A lot I guess. This leads to moment when nobody can expand and everything is controlled or exploited. Static.

I don't like situation where only way to stop control is bankruptcy. It's not like we have peace in galaxy. There are conflicts everywhere. I think what we have is phase one of power play without open fights over controlled systems. That would be next phase. That or thargoids^^.

yeah, I've thought the same thing.
Until the green systems are all gone and Powers start expanding into the red zones there will probably be lots of CC available.
I thin Felicia Winters had 100% of her systems not fortified last cycle, that certainly didn't put her into negative CC.

There is a point where expansion will cease to make sense, but if it continues to be "grindy fun", it will never stop of its own accord...

The most powerful Powers will self-destruct first? Oh! And systems that go into turmoil and eventually collapse can give growth to new Powers! This could continue for years!

Though, honestly, the manual sets it straight. If you want a Power to fully collapse, you have to keep them from expanding multiple weeks in a row. That is usually where the all out secret wars happen.

By the way, I think the galactic wars will supersede PowerPlay. This is just a function for the secret wars.

3608 total over at HIP 21778, and need 4228 to beat Andonnus to 10th place. Should do it in 2 more runs.

EDIT: I mean 3 more runs.

Sorry if this has been covered but I'd like to do some combat undermining and was wondering if their is a specific system to do it in or does anyone have any recommendations?

How about stopping Winters expansion into Mendindui. I want to see what happens if she fails all her expansion attempts.

Hudson has had fifty shades of blue knocked out of him...there are Control systems that still need undermining if you are after the Feds but they are far away. Have a look in the Hudson control tab for more info.
