Powerplay Faction: Yuri Grom Cycle 397 Objectives

Recap and objectives provided by Comrade Mimi: With the focus on repelling the Thargoids (and the IRL holiday season) there isn't much going on in Power Play and BGS at the moment. Winters did have an expansion, but it was just a blocker as negligible effort was put into expanding it; in any case it was opposed. Thanks to our haulers we have forted strongly as usual, ended the cycle with over 1200 CC and therefore ensuring Yuri's domain is safe as ever.

Cycle 397 Objectives (Live mode)

  1. Fortify as per the Trello list (https://trello.com/b/F0nm7r1j/yuri-grom). Please DO NOT fortify any systems not specifically listed; should there be an attack against us, there are systems we want to scrap, and we won't be able to do it if they have been fortified.
  2. For combat merits, feel free to undermine at the hunting grounds provided by AD and FLC; Lei Kax and Areklici, whichever is more convenient.
  3. Vote - Please VOTE CONSOLIDATION
Thank you :)

PP fortification requires either a high rank to get 50 per 30 mins or, shelling out alot of credits. Is there another way?

No other way, credits are needed unless you waste ages as 25 forts/hour for a R5 powerplayer = 204 hours of [almost] continuous game time to get 5100 forts needed to maintain R5 over a Cycle which is 7 days only vs. 8.5 days needed for 204 hours, so it's just impossible. That's why at R5 you get 50M Cr... so you need to use those credits to speed up the forts generation and reap the difference as profit.

Not considering the time wasted to the mutliple convoluted clicks-clicks of the speed-up thing... I wish to know what kind of spirit they drank when programmed that menu.

I'm beginning to understand why alot of cmdrs don't bother with PP. Let's hope these issues are also addressed

That has to be done every week... having a target of 25-30 systems (3500 forts/average) + counter prep means a lot of clicks.

That's why numbers do count as the effort may be splitted among several commanders, in the hope they receive/read the orders or at least check the forts in the game menu (it may happen to have thousands of forts wasted into already fort'ed systems).

The UI is archaic. Hard to decipher for a nub. I get it but I'm lucky I've had some good advice from cmdrs I'm pledged with. So I'm guessing that's the principal way folks learn PP. In discord with their fellow pledglings hehe.
The UI needs a pass for sure. The tedious farming of merits needs a pass. The tedious clicking of fortify thingys needs a rework.
But that aside. I ask myself why, why bother? What's the point?
Assuming there's a truce between superpowers and nothing really changes since the last big expansion war.
Anyways I'm new to PP (module tourist aside) and perhaps I just don't get it overall yet.

Well, in reality the beginning wasn't bad... big groups had some nice "interaction" and wars for territories. As well as we did, against this or that for some time.

Now it's just ZYADA vs FUC (so not much happening for independents like Antal, LYR and even Mahon).

Engagement is very subjective... we have our perk, we have our "anarchy" space and we are pirates... so that's what keeps us pledged lol.
