Faction status - Election??

[Sgopher81]

Ran a search for forum posts but couldn't pin anything down so hopefully this thread doesn't get shot down - although I'm more than happy if someone else has a thread that answers the question.

The imperial faction I'm working for has expanded into a couple of neighbouring systems.

In one of them it has influence of 20% and has a faction status of 'election critical' alongside 'boom' and 'expansion'.

Does anyone know what this election will involve and its influence on the system?

I think they follow the British system, so it's six weeks of hard campaigning then the big day itself. I believe Tea Supply is a big issue these days in the Empire. Either that or which candidate they'll support for the Emperor. But mostly Tea.

PS. Dunno.

It is a new state that takes the place of war...it gives certain factions the ability to 'fight' for supremacy without bloodshed. I believe once it queues up there will be support x by doing this mission. Similar to war, once one of the factions surpasses the other by a certain amount, they win and the other side loses its most important station.

By supplying Tea!

Yup, its factions of the same government type. Instead of going to war its decided by who has the highest trained tea ladies, thinnest China cups and in the case of a tie its decided by who has the best scones.

The faction that puts milk in first must be the loser - they obviously have no class.

If two opposing factions believe in some sort of representative governmental structure will have an election instead of a civil war.
