Ooops.
Sirius Inc has been attacked by thargoids, which were lured to Irandan by AEGIS

Ooops.
Sirius inc have been pushing towards the pleiades for months, not surprised they now find themselves in the line of fire
Indeed, our fight with Aegis is far from over

Actually, Irandan is not in the Pleiades. Our HQ system (which pre-dates the PRE chain) is closer. So by expanding to Irandan, we were expanding *away* from the Pleiades... not towards it.
We're not surprised to be in the line of fire. Thargoids have already attacked stations that we control in Hyades Sector AB-W b2-2 & 42 n Persei. We are a little surprised to be human subjects of Canonn experimentation. I don't recall signing a waiver...

Perhaps there was a typo at the Canon admin department - Cannon - and as a result someone with-in the strategy department thought line up targets for Thargoids was fair game.

Can you write a little more about it?
So did Canonn disable your comms array at the same time? I don't recall any call for aid from Sirius, even after you already lost 2 stations (clumsy of you). Almost as if you were resigned to the attack, maybe because you are part of the Aegis conspiracy (why did you are to hosting two aegis labs eh?).
Sirius Inc - aka Sirius B ark ....
You realize that we've already fought 2 wars against Aegis Research, killed thousands of their NPCs, and evicted them from 2 stations... right? We were TRYING to prevent 'goid attacks on (suspected) WMD labs, but that official story is inflexible. The 'goid attacks happened after we evicted Aegis from 2 (of 3) stations that appeared in our control systems. As for requesting aid, I think the need is apparent (damaged stations are marked with "repair" icon on galactic map). That damage didn't happen because SINC was careless, it happened because this plot element (Aegis stations/labs) was planned long before SINC expanded to the affected systems. It's hard to keep up with this forum, our forum, reddit, and Elite. We're a small group, and I already spend too much time on my PC. I had no idea that Canonn planned to sacrifice Irandan "for science", or I would have expressed concerns.

Locate a cheap supply of basic meds - Williams Dock in the HIP 14211 system are selling them for 198cr/t
Ship said meds to any station that has been recently attacked, this week it is Glazkov Terminal, sell those medcines to the station at 5000cr/t, pre 3.0 you would get 6000cr/t, still the profit margin is good.
The recent attack on the Iradan starport could have been prevented by killing enough Thargoids after Aegis warned you.
The official story isn't inflexible, it just won't change it's course if you do the obvious wrong thing (attacking Aegis instead of Thargoids).
We don't have any control over where FDev place Aegis Research. We also don't have any control over the flavor of conflict (war/election) that is triggered. Aegis appeared in multiple systems that we control, triggered coups (war), and forced SINC to defend our sandbox. How is this "the obvious wrong thing"? Between Aegis triggering coups, and Thargoids burning Aegis-infected stations... we've been awfully busy.
BTW: Acropolis is controlled by Aegis Acropolis, which is distinct from Aegis Research (the NPC faction which we have previously fought against). It's not possible for us to fight Aegis Acropolis directly.

If you want to prevent Thargoid attacks it is fighting the wrong enemy - since Eagle Eye.
Fighting against Aegis won't save your starports from getting destroyed by Thargoids.
If you want to defend your supported faction, then the usual BGS mechanics apply. The flavor of conflict is defined by the different government types. It's a basic game element.
Yes Aegis got inserted into some systems by the "hand of god" just like all player supported factions after that it's just normal BGS activity.
I note with interest that a grand total of ... zero tons of repair materials have been delivered to your two stations this week, despite them being amoung the closest ones to the bubble (in comparison Hudson Observatory got over 360k tons. I think maybe you need to get a bit more involved rather than just waiting to be rescued by others...
Yeah, I don't think you fully comprehend what SINC has been dealing with since November. We're not waiting on anyone (except the hand of FDev). Notice that we didn't ask the community for help fixing those stations? FDev can't even seem to decide how much cargo is appropriate (10x mass of station? 100x mass of station??). Even if we hauled cargo 24/7, our members could barely make a dent. Would I like to repair them? Absolutely. Is it a realistic goal for ~50 people? No.
Tinfoil hat.
Aegis resesrches Thargoids and constructs tech able to hurt them.
Thargoids do not seek any means of communication on want to be left on their own.
This is why they attacked Aegis and facing rising human threat are now also hitting non Aegis stations.
They merely warn us for they easily could blow up those star ports.

If you have 50 people doing hauling I can assure you that repairing your starports is no problem. 750.000 tons (in case of Bennington's Rest) divided by 50 active players means a mere 15.000 tons per CMDR.
That is the amount I hauled to the current CG since yesterday.
Many of the IDA pilots delivered well over a 100.000 tons to the starports in repair, some more than 200.000 and our top CMDR over 600.000 tons alone.
So you should get moving, it's absolutely possible [up]
That's nice. Unfortunately, our faction has been in the game for more than 2 years and we have a lot to manage. We can't and won't make this our primary objective. The damaged stations did not even exist when we expanded there and took control of systems. Why should we repair something that could just as easily be God modded away tomorrow? We're not being lazy, but we have to make hard choices when faced with so many objectives and trash fires.
Is the rep lock for rescue missions still in place?
Can you explain what this is please?
I do a lot of rescue stuff at attacked stations.
Some of the rescue missions from damaged stations require Rep
Now you are just moaning for the sake of it
You pushed to be out there where the action is and now Oh it isn't fair we got what we asked for
Didn't realise the who BGS and game was there to serve you guys
I argued for everyone still killing Goids in Iradan to help save the system but nice to know you guys are too busy crying over Aegis and attacking them.
Home I go not helping any more
