Ahoy Crew!
Call at arms against the Thargoid Titans, it's about time! after the last Community Goals, in which the narrative of the war against the Xeno had clearly taken a turn towards the final action, it seems that the decisive moment is approaching. Thanks to new technology (the so called...
I'd like to comment about the recent updates speaking on behalf of the old school combat/pvp crowd. As a combat focused pilot I have placed this game on the shelf for the better part of 2 years now. More specifically, as an Open Play PVP pilot...I feel in the current minority...although this...
Back after a two years break, but new to Power Play. I have a question to which I could not find a definitive answer for.
I signed up with Felicia Winters, headed to Rhea, Carter Port (I believe it was). There, the local Power Contact has some activities on offer - I picked one where I need to...

New commander? Experienced strategist or diplomat? Knowledge in Powerplay or BGS? Graphic Designer...
Our valiant attempt to expand to Kwakwakwal was sadly unsuccessful due to heavy opposition; we'll try again when the opportunity presents itself. Meanwhile, all is well within the Yuriverse; we forted well as always, and our BGS activities have been progressing as planned. Yuri would like to...

When Marlin Duval vowed to get as far from Earth as possible, it was in the same spirit as Rishi Antal's pilgrimage to create the first Utopian commune and the Sim-Archive: to build a perfect society that would live in harmony. Both seek peace and progress without interference from the...
A (potentially) small UI change that'd make powerplay much more tolerable: being able to queue multiple fast tracks at once and instantly fill our cargo holds with powerplay goods. No need to change the cost of the fast tracks themselves -- just, please, remove the repetition of buying each fast...
Presently, the only way to undermine fortified systems in powerplay is pirate (or destroy) enemy faction transports and unless there is a massive effort, this can be quite difficult to do. It's one of the reasons this sub-game feels as static as it does. However, I'd like to propose an...
Hello Commanders!
My name is Mace, and you might know me as the Press Secretary for Aisling Duval Comms. I'm stepping in for Hunter this week.
Here are our goals for this week, cycle 324:
✅ Vote for Consolidation! Voting is the most important thing you can do for AD, so make sure to maintain...
FUC's advance towards AD took a step backward after Imperial forces undermined Winters and succeeded in cancelling her Weapons against the Princess. Meanwhile Hudson’s bluster against Torval turned out to be just that with our Fortifications holding out against their attack which quickly turned...
So Edmund Mahon is a trader-focused Power, pushing expansionism through commerce, commerce, commerce. Literally, in fact: Preparation method: Finance. Expansion method: Finance. Control method: Finance.
But his power reward is a dinky little thermal laser, the Retributor. It's not really worth...
FUC have deployed a Weaponised Expansion against us at Albicevci this cycle, may the IHC’s commanders show them the error of their ways. Meanwhile our treasury ended the cycle up at 765 CC with our Defence Bonus maintained at 50%. Many thanks to all those who assisted.
Since our last cycle...
It's clearly a PvP game mode where players choose a side and fight for terretory. So why is it allowed in solo, where you can't defend against someone undermining your system, or can't attack your enemies fortification attemtps.
It would be a lot more interesting and fair if it was open only...

In response to widespread fires caused by toaster malfunctions the following statute was passed by the Torval Comitium and Consulate:-
Comitium Statute on Unsafe Toasting Appliances
Due to a spate of fires that broke out c302 at many Powers’ headquarters' main station resulting from toaster...
Interstellar Toasty Appliances is the source of intense scrutiny following Thursday morning GMT after a number of fires broke out at various Powers’ headquarters. Felicia Winters was reportedly unavailable for comment after her Mk II Super Toaster caught fire whilst she attempted to toast a live...
Powerplay should be an Open only activity. Influencing Powerplay by fortifying systems or even opposing systems in solo is something that shouldn't be possible, no one can stop you! Powerplay is meant to be a struggle between factions/powers working against one another. Groups of players...
I wandered lonely as a comet
That flies on by planets and stars,
When all at once I saw a smouldering pyre,
A host of molten Federal flags;
Beside the port, beneath the Coriolis,
Whimpering and whaling in a breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
and twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretched...
Having repeatedly failed to counter Imperial strategists Winters has decided to burn themselves to the ground and start again. We absolutely approve of this strategy and encourage Hudson to do it also as soon as possible. Unfortunately though we know what a bunch of miserable folks the Feds are...
Another strong cycle despite everyone partying due to Empire Day and yes, I am aware some of the toilets in Lagerkvist’s foyer are still blocked however someone has bought us out of Mining Lances so we don’t have anything powerful enough to clear the blockage right now. We tried using slaves but...
"I see you're heading out into the black - can you help us CMDR?"
One thing that's missing (passenger and Colonia courier missions aside) from the smorgasbord of BGS mission types, is exploration.
I'd like to see missions giving relatively high rewards (increasing with distance to objective)...
FUC’s heavy assault on us last cycle fizzled out to a whimper as our fortifiers rallied and closed off their avenue of attack. Thus, we were able to consolidate to a CC Reserve of 209 CC with a Defence Bonus of 18%. This cycle they have deployed a Weaponised Expansion against us again at LTT...
Despite the gallant efforts of the IHC commanders FUC were successful in deploying their weapon at Tsohock against Xuanduna. The rallying call of Torvalians could not be silenced however and we achieved a CC Reserve of 101 and a Defence Bonus of 8%.
At home two Torvalians were promoted to Optio...
Thanks to the herculean effort of Torvalians against the massed forces of FUC and bugs the Federation was unable to force us to lose two of our most important weapons at Barathaona & CD-27 5409 and we exited Turmoil with a CC Reserve of 84 CC and a starting Balance of 64 CC. Huge appreciation...
FUC’s supporters again resorted to underhand tactics, since they can’t win any other way, and attempted to push 5C Expansions onto the Imperial Powers. Patreus failed to contain the threat and currently has a self-damaging sphere active in Expansion whilst here at Torval the Senator will have...
Greetings CMDRs,
We in the Powerplay community want to try again to push for change. We are fed up with how Frontier have been ignoring us and punishing us for playing Powerplay - yes, that is how the majority of us feel - that we are being punished for trying to play what was supposed to be...
FUC faced more humiliation last cycle as our fortification push forced them to halt their attack on the Torval domain whilst their forces at the Clayahu weaponised expansion suffered defeat at the hands of the IHC’s magnificent commanders. They have thus decided to go for double the failure this...
Last cycle’s plan worked well and thanks to the efforts of Torval, IHC & FUC commanders we manged to scrap Amitae returning 83 CC to the Senator’s treasury and exiting turmoil with a CC Reserve of 54 CC. That said, Imperial Intelligence is pretty sure the Feds didn’t think they were helping us...
FUC began a major offensive against Senator Torval’s domain last cycle with attacks against most of our systems. Our lines however held with only Amitae, CD-27 5409, Hesa, LHS 274, and Ross 429 taking casualties. Observers on the scene reported many wounded but no fatalities due in no short...
Greetings, Commanders!
I'll be resuming the weekly updates for Aisling Duval goals here on the forums for all the lovely lone wolves to be up to date! o7
Goals for this week:
Vote for Consolidation!
Check the Trello for dynamic fortification and undermining targets!
Do NOT prepare systems. If...
FUC have deployed another Weaponised Expansion against us this time at Kistha. With Senator Torval’s domain the clear target for a Federal offensive in the near future it is time to raise the drawbridge and man the defences at home.
Last cycle 10 systems suffered varying degrees of damage from...
Imperial forces achieved victory against FUC’s weaponised expansion against Torval at Belgitan. However, despite the immense gallantry of the IHC pilots at Taexalk the dishonourable Feds broke through and the Expansion was successful. Despite this Kappa remains profitable with many millions of...
FUC has deployed two Weaponised Expansions against Senator Torval at Belgitan and Taexalk. If Taexalk successfully expands it would cause significant damage to CC revenues from Kappa as the people of 9 systems currently living under the light of Torval’s economic freedom will fall under the...
FUC attacked 3 systems last cycle, being rebuffed at Kappa and failing at Tai-1 Hydrae. At LHS 2265 they caused significant damage to the ecosystem of the local water world when one of their ships plunged through its atmosphere and broke apart upon impacting the sea surface, wiping out a rare...
