Nope, just confirmed Glaives (but not Scythes) have an anti guardian field.
CG predictions...
- Thread starter CMDR Serra
- Start date
Yeah i edited my post on this as I had just remembered also but had gave a tip to avoid this for the most part
There have been at least two others, in terms of individual rewards
- the Marlinist expansion CG in April 2022 had one of the sets of cosmetics available at the 100% tier
- the "Pods" CG at Colonia was originally intended to be a 75% tier reward, but I think Frontier changed it to 100% since the time required to get even one pod would have comfortably reached top 50% in any normal CG
Prototype Frame Shift Drive almost production ready, competitor sceptical
Material gathered from the Titan Taranis wreckage has reportedly allowed Achilles Aerospace to complete the research on their prototype Frame Shift Drive.The recent initiative sponsored by Achilles Aerospace saw over 5000 independent pilots enter the hazardous wreckage of Titan Taranis, retrieving enough Titan Drive Components to allow Achilles to allegedly design a new type of Frame Shift Drive based on Titan technology.
A spokesperson for Achilles Aerospace gave the following update:
The Achilles Corporation would like to commend every brave pilot that responded to our request. The data we are gathering from the collected materials is staggering, and our work has progressed at an astonishing rate. Our teams are hard at work getting the prototype ready for production as I speak, and we are eager to show you all the fruits of our labour very soon.
Sirius Corporation, the current sole manufacturer of Frame Shift Drives, was asked for comment on this research:
“Sirius recognises Achilles’ claims of ‘revolutionising’ an extremely advanced technology in a relatively short span of time, but we remain unconvinced of their substance. If Achilles can produce something other than words we will be happy to comment further.”
CG for Materials for research into Mk2 FSD (SCO) coming up! (a less heat/more fuel efficient version?) 
Oh, maybe not then, just seen the news about U18.03
I probs won't get in to ED for 3-4 days after update on Epic - here we go again support tickets and waiting for Epic to update ED

CGs are manual work, just like Galnet. Not enough staff left at FDEV to do that.
They’d have easy pickings with a “Aegis Titan Salvage Initiative” CG for the other three unique items that can be found there(other than drive components). Throw in an Azimuth counter goal for good measure and to provide them the smallest semblance of relevance to the narrative too.
I predict no CG's for a few weeks as too much going on to get people sidetracked from Reducing Titan Defenses/Titan Destruction/EA Python mk2/FSD SCO/etc...........
However, if they become bi-monthly (i.e. 1 every 2 months) CG's, a nice one could be a CG for access to new ships (or specifically P2) for CR instead of with ARX!

New GalNet!
Stent Jackson, a ship engineering and design consultant, spoke to Vox Galactica about this new surge of research:
“Now don’t get me wrong, every manufacturer I’ve spoken to considers Supercruise Overcharge to be a great thing, but it’s also ripping our hulls apart. The good with the bad, as always.”
“Funny thing is, every manufacturer is realising all at once that there are some crucial things about ship construction that they’ve all taken for granted. When you get down to brass tacks, we assume certain thresholds, right? Before, we didn’t need to worry about exceeding certain temperatures or hitting high levels of hull stress regularly. Now that’s all out the window.”
“I haven’t seen such a single-minded focus from ship manufacturers for a long time. They’re all clawing to be first to market with a ship that can alleviate Overcharge stress, and it’s not long before one of them really does rise to the challenge.”
"My hat’s off to them, Achilles have changed the game in the industry for good.”
Ship manufacturers must “rise to the challenge” of Supercruise Overcharge
Users of the Supercruise Overcharge function of Achilles’ new Frame Shift Drives have reported that the module puts ships under immense mechanical and thermal stress, often causing severe hull damage. Ship manufacturers throughout the galaxy are now diverting research towards overcoming this issue.Stent Jackson, a ship engineering and design consultant, spoke to Vox Galactica about this new surge of research:
