Colonia CG Organization

[Oh Seven Commander]

Since the Colonia CG requires double digit millions per port to get Tier 1 to unlock the cargo racks I recommend we all start at the lowest requirement port - Mizuno in Asura - until it’s done then do the next highest and next highest until they’re all completed or until we lose.

This will prevent spreading out efforts across them all and potentially winning less than we could if we all focused on one port at a time.

Credit to CMDR Numa for pointing this situation out as well

 

[Oh Seven Commander]

The ideal unified approach would be as follows top to bottom, focusing one until complete, then starting the next:

Mizuno in Asura - 11.5M
Templar in Randgnid - 23M
Robardin in Carcosa - 34.5M
Paxton in Einheriar - 46M

makes sense, Einheriar will be tough though....

I suspect we will potentially not win that one. But 2-3 racks is very doable and would still be a big success for this event.

With only 18mil profit per run in a Panther Clipper, I expect most players will just do one run for each CG.

Funnily enough I saw people super content with that in system chat earlier but I don’t disagree with your analysis

if so, no one will get a Cargo-Rack....
That suggestion above to concentrate to finish Asura first and then the others makes sense though, at least two are manageable within a week at current speed....

btw, thw sum of all four is exactly what we delivered last week....

Would the meta for the previous CG have been to deliver less so we have to deliver less this CG?

Isn't one run enough as the CG states;

Pilots in the top 100% and above of contributions will also receive the following rewards:

- 1 x Size 5 Expanded Cargo Rack

 

[Iridikron]

This collection of CGs are such a disappointment. ONLY size 5 pre-engineered cargo racks for such a massive chore.

They OUGHT to give us a size 7 and a size 8 pre-engineered cargo rack for this. Nothing less will suffice.

We may need a couple of FC 1 jump away from Einheriar with a couple of plippers loading it up and people in mediums dropping off ?? The FC could add a few credits on the sell price but the turn around would be faster ??

My read of that is if the CG completes at least 1 tier then anyone gets the rack. Still needs to meet one tier though.

Am I Braben? No but that’s how I read it.

jep, thats the problem. Asura Tier 1 is 11.5 Mio to and with that the Asura CG is finished. So all three L-Pad CG have an all or nothing clause....

So whats wrong with that statement lol

It’s dependent on the first (and only) tier being met. The CG has to at minimum succeed for the 100% of pilots to get their rewards.

 

[Tessa R Act]

and looking at the participation numbers it does not look good.
Last CG nearly 12.000 Cdr participated (OK, a lot of those with one delivery only presumably) but now there are less than 1000....
Proportionally that would mean a delivery of around 10 Mio tons total over the week, so not even enough to finish Asura....
lets hope that changes with the weekend.

Current Assura progress doesn't seem too bad at almost 10% - can monitor from here : https://www.elitedangerous.com/community/goals

Current / Target 1,059,687 / 11,500,000
(9.21%)

it's 36° Celcius in the shadows out there, you have to wait for the night to see me moving

Thats absolutely no surprise considering the abysmal reward it gives.

If it was size 7 and size 8 racks, as they ought to be considering how much effort it takes, you could be sure that it would succeed.

I don't think so, if you read the whole thing, the only reward with the "tier" condition is the credits. The only requirement for the cargo rack is to be in the top 100%. Doesn't make since to separate the rewards if both conditions have to be met.
