Donate to the war effort missions...

Sounds like it may be a way to line things up for a civil war. I suggest you pay and see what happens... watch your faction standings tho. It's not yet clear how things operate, but we can test theories. Oh yeah, if you do it, watch the influence each faction has in system too. It may only affect that.
Mikey, did your faction standings change at all? Should be a blue or red arrow on the right hand HUD beside one faction or another if so. Also, did system control % on the map change for any of the factions? I've been trying to figure out how much manipulation is in our hands, but the opportunity you have has eluded me thusfar.
Ok will check this out when next in ... Just had an identical mission going back to the other of my main stations which are next to each other in the same system, one agricultural one industrial and im allies in both. Im surprised this hasnt been brought up by others as im sure it isnt just me. Or is it something that has spawned specifically due to my style of play?
What I am noticing is that we can affect the standings of different factions by trading with them. For example, if the station you trade with is allied with the feds, then you get a little boost when you trade with or help that station. In Lave, the rare goods trade has apparently driven factions competing with the alliance faction to civil war. Now... the question is: How do we harness it??? The mechanic is there, but does it do more than "look good"? My experience of past iterations of the game tells me DB thinks things out very carefully. Need more data! Need more poking and prodding!
