Powerplay Faction: Aisling Duval Weekly Objectives for Cycle 114

[Cori]

Good morning Commanders!

Although we as an individual Power have had no exciting opportunities last cycle, we have achieved an impressive amount of fortification, which is always pleasing.

We shall see if any interesting systems open up to us this week.

Start as usual, by fortifying and voting for Consolidation.

If you want to get an early start then as usual a few fortification targets are encouraged, for example Wulwula, Undines, Blod, Chankates, Rutujil or HIP 105391.

The finalised objectives will be posted on Reddit and copied here when ready once the numbers wizards have done their magic dance.

Never ever fortify: Tsanla, Chnumar, Daibo, Grebegus, HIP 10786, Kuki An, Kaukamal, Panganau. You will make baby Aisling cry.

Also, to keep an eye on our dynamic objectives list, which changes as the cycle progresses, please visit the webpage at https://trello.com/b/HBY3rRZR/aisling-duval

Fly safe, commanders!

If anyone has not yet voted Consolidation, now is the time to do so.

Weekly Objectives for Cycle 114
__________________________________________________
Hail, CMDRS!

Sorry to bore you all to tears, but with no new opportunities having opened up to allow for profitable expansion it seems we're forced to Consolidate again this week to avoid deficit system. Fortunately for our cargo haulers our need for Fortification never subsides, and for our combat pilots we have a high-priority mission that needs your assistance, so there's plenty to be done this week even without preparations.
If you believe you have located a system which would be profitable to expand into, please leave a comment on this thread detailing its name and distance from Cubeo. Bear in mind that (save for contested systems that overlap with other powers) there is no way to increase the CC value of a control system, so it's literally impossible for a system to be "unprofitable right now, but could be made profitable later on." We've heard that argument made hundreds of times from people that have suggested systems for Expansion, and it's just not consistent with the mechanics that are in place. If it's not good now, it won't be good later either.

[h=1]VOTE CONSOLIDATION[/h]
We have no potential profitable expansions to make at this point in time, so please vote for Consolidation and focus on Fortification or undermining for this cycle.
Systems are prepared by collecting Preparation Materials from any Aisling Duval Control System and delivering them to the target system.

We successfully Consolidated last cycle, and have no Expansions as a result.

Systems are Expanded by collecting Expansion Materials from the system that is being Expanded, and delivering them to any Aisling Duval Control System.

[h=1]FORTIFICATION[/h]Click here to be taken to the Aisling Duval trello page where fortification and other cycle objectives are tracked and routinely updated by members of the community to ensure their accuracy.
If you do not wish to use the Trello, a static list of targets to fortify is provided below. Bear in mind that this list will not be updated routinely, and it is best to consult either the Trello or in-game to ensure that these systems have not already reached their fortification totals.

Target System	Pad Type	Notes
Wulwula	Large	To 100%
Undines	Planetary Large / Outpost	To 100%
Kherthaje	Planetary Large / Outpost	To 100%
Chankates	Planetary Large / Outpost	To 100%
Rutujil	Large	To 100%
Blod	Large	To 100%
Kalana	Large	To 100%
HIP 105391	Large	To 100%
HIP 95256	Large	To 100%
HIP 116045	Large	To 100%
HIP 35246	Large	To 100%

Cartoi	Large	To 100%
Pardis	Large	To 100%
Hotototo	Large	To 100%
HIP 114709	Large	To 100%
Mool	Large	To 100%
Cailli	Planetary Large / Outpost MED	To 100%
Conii	Outpost MED	To 100%
Yan Musu	Large	To 100%

DO NOT FORTIFY ANY OTHER SYSTEMS UNLESS THESE OBJECTIVES ARE UPDATED TO SHOW OTHERWISE.
Systems are fortified by collecting Program (fortification) materials from Cubeo only and delivering them to the target system.
Do not fortify any systems that are already at 100% fortification. Remember the One-Ton Test: Drop 1t of fortification materials at the station first, and check to see if the trigger has already been met. If it has, please find another system to fortify instead!
Please report your contributions to fortification values in the Reports field of the Aisling Duval Slack. __________________________________________________
[h=1]UNDERMINING/SCRAP/Opposition[/h]Please consult the AD Slack to see if there are any systems that are appropriate for Undermining/Opposing.
The rest of the Empire is taking the fight to Winters this cycle. You are welcome to do as you wish, but if you would like to get involved the following targets have been provided through Imperial channels:

Opposition/Undermining Target	Nearest Control System	Notes
HR 24655	HIP 35246	Winters Expansion

The Federation is only pushing one Expansion this cycle, so there's only one system we need to knock down; Winters expansion into HR 24655. It's a bit of a trip to get there, but it's a cause worth fighting for, so if you need some combat merits please consider heading that way and unloading with everything you've got!
