Powerplay Faction: Aisling Duval Cycle 432: Train Kept a Rollin’ (September 7th to 14th 2023/3309)

Aisling’s haulers again excelled themselves, fully completing our Trello fortification list all the way down to Runo and Kwelegus. Our consolidation vote remained strong at 84% safeguarding us from unwanted expansions. The Princess salutes your commitment.

The Federation continue to provide us with targets to shoot at, going through the motions of attempting expansion whilst providing a public service to keep ZYADA combat pilots amused. Vistsi was a novel location, Winters was decisively shot down. Some undermining ops continued against our ally Uncle Yuri Grom, LTT 8260 was cancelled.

Just for a change Winters prepped Dongkum, but all in all a quiet Powerplay week. All other powers consolidated, no CC changed hands. This translates to no gains in the AX war. Indeed, in our nearest maelstrom, Hadad, the thargoids have their first invasion in months. Bi Dhorora has a planetary base under attack (or did, until the invasion was defeated on Saturday). The community goal in Rabh to create a new xeno scanner did not enthuse Cmdrs, and failed to reach tier 1.

Yet the narrative railroad rumbles on. We are getting the new scanner anyway. FDev launched a new “Polite Request” plotline that cynics immediately claimed to be another cover story to avoid holding the long-delayed Federal elections. Visitors are expected in our recently-acquired control system Zeta Trianguli Australis following a Rackham-related treasure hunt. Is he a former pirate? Does this matter?

Many thanks from the Princess for your ongoing efforts. Please keep or earn at least 100 merits to maintain your voting rights. Have fun out there.


Objectives for Cycle 433 (until September 21st)
  • Vote for Consolidation! Voting is the most important thing you can do for AD, so make sure to maintain rank 2! It only takes 100 merits and four weeks of pledge time. Here's where to vote in the UI. Early votes are the best kind of votes!
  • Check the Trello for dynamic fortification targets! This is updated more frequently than the in-game menu. Please, ONLY fortify systems listed on the Trello.
  • Please do not prepare any systems this week. Spare media materials can be safely delivered to HIP 35209.
  • Combat merits: oppose Felicia Winters’ expansion to Dongkum.
  • AX: Imperial Xeno Defence targets this cycle are to defeat the alerts in Muruidooges and Omumba. The counterstrike priority target is still HIP 30502. Invasions in Bi Dhorora and Unktety are defeated already.
  • Join the Discord for guides, mentoring, BGS, and insight. Remember: PP UI bad, Discord good. Powerplay is a community game, so connect with us.
