Your stuff goes in my box, 'kay. Won't be much anyway I guess.
Cheating continues.

I would suggest you find a faction that has no connection to the games progress to attack. It will be more rewarding and less frustrating. It’s part of the lore of ed (I assume you’ve benefit from it) as a permit locked system and a faction that has an engineer assigned to it It’s been pointed out to you that Sirius is a protected faction. It plays a part in all cmdrs progression. For you to destroy it would require the software to be re-written. I would stop chasing your tail on this one.
I can't help to think that you don't know how the bgs works.
The Odyssey settlements are a pain in the backside, but they can be used to your advantage if you know how to use all the tools available to you and your squadron.
If you are really a "Freedom Fighter of the Old Worlds" then push them out for a retreat instead of messing around. Again, there are easy ways of doing it, if you know how to bgs

The permit is not going to be at risk, Frontier added in those megaships a while back after a few permit-holders got locked in their home system.
But what do you hope to gain against a faction that is openly managed by fdev developers at the code base level?
I don't speak for the OP, but I've run or participated in a few things like this, and the end goal is always getting Frontier's attention. It's not like there's any actual ingame mechanic that says when Sirius get hurt enough, a different GalNet will go up. Destruction of Sirius is impossible, just like any other faction. But if a group of players were to stage an attack on Sirius, then there's a chance that Frontier might notice, and a smaller chance that they might incorporate it into official events. Often the attack itself doesn't actually pose any real "problem" that Frontier couldn't ignore, but it's a useful recruiting point and an indicator of support to Frontier.
Unfortunately, I don't expect this particular attempt to work as it appears to lack popular support. Most of the Alliance playerbase seems content to let Sirius do whatever they want so long as 4 systems don't turn yellow. That could change, though.
Playing the BGS- not even once.
Well at least this one is going again!
Trust me we know how to play the BGS, it is what we spend most of our game time with.I can't help to think that you don't know how the bgs works.

Sirius cannot be retreated from Leesti, which has meanwhile been more or less openly admitted.
It is surely debatable if this fulfils the definition of "cheating", however it does not exactly make for an enhanced player experience when all your efforts get wiped away.
"all your efforts get wiped away" lol.
Sirius at < 4%, you poor things, such imposition!
Every BGS player should be know that player messing with BGS as it was an "influence" strategy game, was never originally intended for Frontier. Only post factum they accepted that. But, we never had transparency in how this really works on live. Frontier obvioulsy is not obliged to not change their own rules and variables values, the moment they want, they are not obliged to give us an User Interface, they are not obliged to fix bugs for a part of the game that is supposed to be controlled for them, they are not obliged to don't touch everything they want for their CGs, campaigns, and also their own factions play. BGS player should noted that their game is merely get the crumbs of the main dish that is only in the table of Frontier.
I gave up playing bgs many years ago, after seeing a lot of people burn out hoping their game would become something more than it was. Even creators of BGS guides.
The best way of winning the BGS, for me, is not playing that, only for my own interest.

I was referring to the efforts that have been taken trying to retreat them. Which were not entirely insignificant.
Of course that was before we learned that Sirius are getting god moded, which admittedly was some of a disappointment.
Hmm, ok. Fair enough having a go at pushing them out (worked for Reorte), but they did kinda point out what was happening in all those Galnets drinky posted earlier.
Almost as if it's a bad idea expecting you can have 100% control of an area that has been synonymous with the history of the game. FDev would be crazy not to have some major storylines there. If they want to tell their story, you have to expect this. It's attitudes from player groups wanting full control of everything that have made storylines so weaksauce.
Hm. What kind of "control" are you referring to here?
I mean. What does controlling a system get you in terms of... well, controlling anything at all? All you can have is your faction's name on top of the list and keep it there, pretty puny in terms of control. Still it is enough to keep us going and play the game
Obviously I'm referring to your chosen minor faction having their name on the system/station. In my case however, my chosen faction being in control of their system provides access to several ships otherwise unavailable within 22000 light years, so there is a tangible benefit for me.Hm.

But you're right, overall it does demonstrate that we were never meant to have any significant personal benefit from this. That's probably why so many find this thread amusing.
Lots of groups have had an interest in Leesti over the years.
Back in 3302 or 3303, I was part of a major BGS operation to throw out the hated Justice Party Of Leesti, and return Independent Leesti For Equality to governance.
Those were the days:
Lots of biffo with The Code. The war with LRN. Loved The Old Worlds.

Nothing but a 'boss' feeling, obviously...
... but so many players defending something so unimportant? And others having fun keeping the struggle going, that is the funny bit, to me. I'm on the way back to Colonia, so hope that another Sirius supporter took my slot in Leesti, just to give other players something to keep themselves busy.
The other thread was closed. I suspect this one may attract the fallout.
