EDIT 2: 19 control systems still unfortified. We're burning through them. If we can finish this cycle with no systems unfortified, we should be able to tolerate additional undermining that will be on its way.
EDIT 1: An in depth update on Lady Arissa's current (26 Jul) status can be found here. We still have 33 unfortified systems out of 59.
In an effort to inspire fortification, Lavigny's Legion has started a competition.
There appear to be at least 9 conflicts in Lavigny controlled space.
There is a wedding this week! The Legions of Lavigny supporters in Damoorai were so swept up in the celebratory mood, they simply did not notice that their authority was undermined throughout that system to a count as high as 8432! Reports are confused, either there was a massive onslaught of highway robbery, or vagabonds used invisible stealth ships to destroy over 500 Imperial Supply vessels!
Unfortunately, for Senator Lavigny, soon to be officially recognized as Princess Lavigny-Duval, her influence base of Command Capital has spread too thin. With the two new Control Systems of HIP 32812 and Phracani, her expenditure of Command Capital in overheads and upkeep outstretched the influence she gains from her control systems. Damoorai is in Turmoil, and if the GalNet reported numbers are accurate, another system will join it shortly.
However, there are disturbing cries that GalNet reports are once again flawed. So far they're reports are as flawed as early 21st century exit polling in elections. Can you believe it! Humans once believed you got the best leader by electing them! Who ever heard of such a thing?
While no one doubts GalNet's ability to determine which systems fall under Senator Lavigny's influence and control, rumors are spreading that they've over-estimated the Senator's upkeep this cycle, not to mention they believe that two new systems will fall under her sway when she cannot keep her other power brokers in line! It's the gossip of the day!
Will GalNet will once again be forced back to their basement abaci to determine the accurate figures based on leaked formulas from earlier this week? Will they admit to faulty reasoning again, or will those two rambunctious new systems make so much noise that not even GalNet can believe they are under the good Senator's influence. The poor man is having such trouble establishing her rule of law and order in systems run by dictators. "One Man, One Vote," and all that, only it isn't her vote. Not yet.
Arissa Lavigny-Duval has entered Turmoil again.
The numbers last seen reported on GalNet (@830 GMT) were:
Income: 4898cc Income from 639 systems (58 Control Systems)
Upkeep: 600cc from 59 control systems (1 in turmoil)
Overhead: 4402cc from 59 control systems
Of course, this reporter from the Kamadhenu Citizens' Herald crunched numbers himself in the hours before GalNet's report. My numbers, including Damoorai's surprise rebelliousness, follow:
Income: 5000cc Income from 56 Control Systems (Damoorai, HIP 32812, and Phracani have not reported any Income yet)
Upkeep: 516cc from 59 Control Systems (including the two newly acquired ones and Damoorai's upheaval costs)
Overhead: 4449cc from 59 Control Systems (based on the leaked formula); 4298cc from 57 Control Systems
What are the Princess's beloved followers to do? Especially when that other woman appears to have grown in influence!
This intrepid reporter has compiled a list of all current Control Systems under Senator Lavigny's influence, and organized them by highest Income and controlling faction, so the higher it is on the list, the greater the Senator benefits from fortifying the controlling authority with Garrison Supplies.
Otherwise, prepare to defend your spouses and children, the other Powers are becoming desperate in this joyous time and trying to destroy our beloved Princess's standing in her father's eyes on this joyous occasion.
Hail the Emperor! Bask in His Greatness!
