Aisling’s awesome haulers, still straining at the leash after our Itelmens expansion, completed the entire fortification list from Simyr down to the stretch target Zeta Trianguli Australis. Our consolidation vote was a solid 82%. We saw a slow start for the 5C bots who did not commence hauling unwanted prep to HIP 1572 until Sunday. Curiously, Velnambe saw 62k media materials delivered by parties unknown to head the prep list.
Both expansions failed. Winters made little effort to capture Chang O. ZYADA combat pilots buried this by destroying around 5000 Federal NPCs. Similarly, Granny Torval only just exceeded the threshold against unfavourable triggers in HR 7079. The most determined Federal activity in the live galaxy was against Yuri Grom, six control systems were completely undermined: Pethes, LHS 3677, Nauo, LFT 78, San Guan, and Muncheim.
A real novelty was served up by Kumo Burger King Archon Delaine. After years of predictable forting and conservative vote control, a deliberate preparation to expand HIP 97704. We are puzzled, perhaps the pirates know something we don’t? Winters prepped Dongkum again, less unexpectedly, while she hosts a CG in Rhea. Geologists were surprised by ASSJ claims of responsibility for catastrophic earthquakes in that system.
Emperor Arissa lost -6CC as the Thargoids advanced in her Neites sphere, closer now to the high-end Imperial shipyard and outfitting services at Brestla. We understand that FDev’s silent on-the-fly rebalancing has caused some disillusion among AX groups. The harder humanity fights, the tougher the Thargoids get. Innovative tactics are nerfed. Soon, a Proteus Torpedo will progress us along the narrative railroad.
In BGS, Elite United Worlds (ably supported by Knights of the Light Table) won an invasion war against traitors to the Empire Likedeeler of Michel and Colonia in Alpha Tucanae. LoMaC are now completely removed from HIP 109203 sphere.
Small detachments of Federal agents continue to set fires behind our lines. CD-77 45 in the Untun sphere has witnessed a bitter war against NPCs Party of Yoru. The Federation is supporting this long-term thorn in the side of Aisling’s Angels. So there’s been no danger of post-expansion boredom.
As always, a huge thanks for your support. Have fun out there.
Objectives for Cycle 455 (until February 22nd)
