Help in Lave Area : Riedquat Civil War

[Jeheil]

OK, I am looking for some local civil war action in the area of Lave.

I found a good candidate system, Riedquat, 2 of the 3 stations are in civil war, basically the feds are trying to move in.

However after going to every station and all of the planets (some nice looking planets), I havent been able to find anything related to the Civil War, no missions, no war/combat zones. I had a similar misadventure at Eddleston (or something like that) nearby.....

What am I missing. I have played since beta, so I sort of think I know how to find conflict zones etc (fly to within Mm of a planet and look for popup zones).

Anyone more knowlegable care to explain ?

Reidquat has been in civil war since the original Elite. It's the national pastime.

well u can get checkpoints with lockdown as well. I dunno guess some of the game features are massively broken still

Is something special supposed to happen at checkpoints? The first time I saw one, I had some illegal, stolen, drugs in my cargo and thought that I would be pulled into it automatically or something. Came back to that checkpoint a couple of days later and it was just some Elite NPCs flying around shooting the sh**.

in HR through player actions, a faction from the mikunn system, the dukes of mikunn expanded their influence into a nearby system ( essentially trying to take over). Theres a group of 60 of us trying to do missions and otherwise disrupt the dominant faction in HR ( HR dynamics) we have run enough influence, combat and trade missions against dynamics now, that they are in lockdown status ( they have setup checkpoints at planets etc the idea is that they are trying to lockdown the system against the invasion by the dukes) in the player and npc sense. So u will probably find the dominant faction policing the checkpoints, if youre working for another faction that is in expansion ( the dukes over here in HR) but whatever local faction is trying to invade. You will help them, there is another site called seeking goods, where traders from both the dominant and other factions are meant to buy trade goods ( we cant yet) we can shoot em but cant trade tis another yet to be intorudced feature, but the idea is that they smuggling aorund the lockdown of the stations and planets by the faction being attacked

Wal of words but theres a meta game at play

Now where a civil ar is present one would expect and i think the ones that work, the 2 factions attack each other and u can side with one side fo the other , or u can just go in and shoot the faction present and weaken it if that fits the metagame objectives.
