Arissa Lavigny-Duval Power Play Cycle 7

IDA DHOR 46149
MURARE 44589

still nervous, but I guess fortifications are still needed.
I'd prioritize according to gain/effort

TUJING needs 1425 more for 27CC
CANDECAMA needs 3589 for 33CC
COOK needs 4044 for 24CC
DAMOORAI needs 6535 for 28CC
HE XINGO needs 7363 for 30CC

TUJING is the low hanging fruit

where are the guys that prepped HE XINGO?

I think they're on summer holidays. Honestly, if we can stave off Turmoil for after the wedding, we can let our far flung systems collapse. Maybe the Emperor's wife will become their new power.

That was a joke. I appreciate all that OCI has done for the Princess and our other causes. I really do hope FDev starts injecting power play with more life. Seems like the last power related stories were player driven.

I dont understand any of this ridiculous power play system.
I will always choose the closest enemy controlled system to grind merits which is normally Winters in ENNEAD and have been recommending others do the same.
I then choose our Cockraigne system that has res to camp and hand in bounties.
I travel less than 100Ls, the whole grind less than 2 hours ( rank 3 is all you need )

Fix the entire power play mechanics, or do I have to go and get a PHD to enjoy it?

Good luck with that.

In the future, while I'm sure many participants on here do partake in undermining, the subreddit and Lavigny's Legion are very welcoming for independents who wish to join wing and undermine.
 
Unless I am missing a massive variable in the formula, or it isn't the way it appears to be, we should have 148cc to spend next cycle.
One system to expand into.

Arkhanist votes:

Phra Narai for small ships and Binjia for big ones would get my vote. Krinbea at 6.8k ls distance is a bit of pain, and higher fortification costs (due to Dictatorship, yes?) in Malaikudi aren't ideal. But all 4 are at least profitable.

I personally like Krinbea, but it barely got to 7 on the list last week when I endorsed it. Binjia might be a more solid endorsement this time around.

I haven't fully checked the map, and I'm not sure I'm able to. Supposedly the new formula means over 75cc or bust. There are still more than a few systems out there. Last week we found the 4 Arkhanist mentioned. If anyone has anything new, or anything close, now is the time to speak up.
 
They seems to be last minute attack on Damoorai, 68% undermined. We have to fortify this one, badly.
 
Is that 7, in game time?

Yes, it is 7 in game time. And, yes, I noticed that last minute attack on Damoorai, too.

EDIT: I was sure last week they finally said 7am GMT, but now I'm not sure. Keep trucking if you can. Let us know when the dust settles.

Hi all,

Before the cycle flips and aspiringexpatriot makes a new thread (much respect to you sir), I wanted to hear peoples thoughts about supporting Patronage in our Control Systems.

I drew up a basic list of non-Patronage governments, showing their current controlling minor factions, and I began scouting the systems for viable Patronage factions to support with a view towards flipping their Systems to them.

It will be a long term goal to consider, in a RP sense it could be like some sort of Patronage League / Concordat sponsored by ALD to promote a government type that upholds Imperial Justice, what do people think?

I'll put up the information once I've finished scouting tonight, but preliminary data shows that the majority on the list are Corporates, then some Dictatorships, and a few Democracies and I think a Confederation. Would we want to consider keeping the Dictatorships for traders to retain access to Weaponry commodities?

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Anyone see any problems with undertaking this as a side project / long term goal?

Did you see my most recent spreadsheet of control systems?

I'm sure what you're doing is more intense, but I hope you can use some of my information on the controlling factions. I also compared Anarchy, Corporate, Democracy, Patronage, and Dictatorship controlled systems with comparable upkeeps (to stand in for distance), and the only massive discrepancy I noticed was that Dictatorships are really tough to fortify. If that remains the case after your investigation, I'm not sure we need to prioritise Patronage over Corporate just yet.

As for retaining dictatorships, we have plenty in exploited systems. Our control systems don't contain any benefit for our followers, so I don't think we should concern our selves with the flipping. Yes, I am aware that some control systems were chosen because they had good outfitting or good trading, but, well, that was, frankly, really, really stupid. Keeping all of our systems fortified is more important now, and the best way is apparently to flip them all away from Dictatorships.
 
Looks like we're in Turmoil, due to a successful undermining of Damoorai. As are Mahon, Hudson and Li Yong-Rui for similar reasons.
