I'd like to see one of the Salvation CGs complete just to see what happens - there seems to be a common belief that whatever he's doing is shady and will make things worse and I'm not sure Ram Tah/Aegis alone will give us enough info to figure out the truth.

As it is I think it's unlikely any will 100% complete. There's also a huge disconnect between what's being done (fighting thargoids) and what the gameplay is (rare trading loops).

well, simple math
In previous CG we had better supply and 7 days, not 5- 1,2m units collected
Now we have 5 days, and smaller supply- meanwhile we have 4 CGs- 3x salvation 500k each+ ram tah.
Doubt, that any salv CG will hit t1.

They sometimes tweak cgs as necessary. The second battle of Mudhrid originally had half as many combat vouchers for tier 5 until FDev doubled it.

Despite the secrecy, Ram Tah's CG appears for now to be keeping pace with Delphi and exceeding the other two.

We really need to know the scale for the Ram Tah one - it seems the overall target is a lot higher, but until it starts to move we can't really know where T1 is. In fact I think we won't know before we hit it.

(If it was the same overall goal as Delphi then it would show the same percentage ... not close)

It's an interesting incentive set - there's probably only capacity on the Salvation side to pass one of the three (Delphi running quite a way ahead of the other two and might make it), but the module incentives encourage splitting your effort between all three (or even four) at least somewhat as they aren't conditional on the CG actually succeeding.

Yes - it's quite possible from that screenshot that the T1 on it is comparable to the T1s on the others, and the rest is just there to ensure something runs to the end of the week in the event of unexpectedly high takeup.

TRIBUTES GATHERED TO HONOUR DUVAL HEIR​

09 DEC 3307
Pilots’ Federation ALERT
The birth of Hadrian Duval’s son has been celebrated in grand fashion in the Paresa system.
Praetor Leo Magnus, the new leader of Nova Paresa, publicly thanked pilots for delivering Chateau De Aegaeon, HR 7221 Wheat, Indi Bourbon and Yaso Kondi Leaf to support these highly exclusive proceedings. Payment is now available from Dyson City starport.
Political journalist Cassia Carvalho discussed the arrival of Hector Mordanticus Duval in The Imperial Herald:
“As Emperor Hengist’s illegitimate grandson and former enemy of the state, Hadrian Duval has always been the outsider. Indeed, his newborn son’s middle name seems deliberately chosen to remind the Emperor that she ordered Hadrian’s mentor, Imperator Mordanticus, to be shot in cold blood.”
“But over the last two years, Hadrian’s position has gradually shifted from isolationist rebel to legitimised ally. He appeals to citizens who are unhappy with a female monarch, even more so now that he has a male heir. And he remains closest to the Imperial bloodline, with most other Duval family members having been assassinated by the NMLA.”
“Therefore, unless Arissa Lavigny-Duval or Aisling Duval produce children, it’s entirely possible that Hadrian’s child might inherit the throne. Despite only being a few days old, Hector Duval’s impact upon the Empire could be measured in centuries.”

I wonder if AXI and Hive et al support the salvation CGs to stop the thargoids or if they skip on them to keep the AX CZs.
Anyone knowing?

I'm hoping the target for Ram Tah is 1.5M (i.e. same as the other 3 combined). In which case it should start to show 'soon'. But as you say - could be otherwise ...

I assumed the popular Salvation CG was popular because AX fans wanted that weapon the most, to kill Hydras in a hauler or whatever it is they do.

It makes sense to focus on delivery to one target first.

Well yeah, but ... players :) What we typically see is some will continue to the end, with a drift towards the one in front (Delphi). Maybe it is so early that they're just going to scoop up all the new sign-ups - they're 2:1 against the others at the moment - Meene/Ram Tah is a bit behind the leader (but more motivated as they're staying at the same level as Delphi). Fun times :)

INTRIGUE SURROUNDS RECOVERED ART TREASURE​

10 DEC 3307
Recent evidence suggests that some of the precious items stolen by the Winking Cat have been sold to private collectors.
Crime correspondent Mira Bukowski has been following the story for Vox Galactica:
“When the FIA raided the home of media magnate Elias Metaxas, they found the painting Terra Absentia by Zoe Okeke hanging in his chambers – a painting stolen by the Winking Cat in 3305. Metaxas confessed to purchasing the famous artwork for 22 billion credits via a series of anonymous dealers, none of whom could be traced.”
“Coincidentally, there are rumours that an Imperial senator keeps some statues resembling the missing New Dawn collection hidden within her mountainside chalet. And only recently, multi-billionaire Zachary Rackham was overheard inviting an investor to ‘come up and see my Guernica’.”
“It seems that the thief has secretly sold these highly valuable treasures to private collectors. However, this is not typical behaviour for someone believed to be a genuine connoisseur of fine art as well as a skilled larcenist.”
“Perhaps there is an urgent need for huge sums of money, and since the Winking Cat has never stolen anything as vulgar as mere credits, this is the most ideal method. But what might the notorious criminal be planning?”

Unsurprisingly I was premature in thinking people were consolidating to bring at least one CG in to completion - looks like it will the the usual fight to the death. Expect lots of grumbling once it becomes clearer that we might be on for a quadruple fail this week :)

Though Delph is in the 'could be successful' range, ... ifthe CG was running all week. Might make it.
