Latest CQ

[Maximillian Forrest]

Although I’m a player who started way back with the original in the 80’s, I’m a returning player after the debacle of odyssey.

My return has mostly been concentrated on colonisation which has been positive, but thought I’d give the latest CG at Dhan a go. In the past, I’ve always been in top 25% on the non-combat ones, so thought I’d give the latest combat one a go.

Well, my first port of call was looking for a CZ in Dham which was easy to find. Problem was, the ones I found seemed to just take me to on-foot conflicts which I didn’t want. So, I exited odyssey and opted to play in horizons.

Thinking this would help me get to defeat pirates for the CG I entered one of many conflict zones. Problem was everyone was tagged as lawless. Destroyed plenty of those, but none seemed to add to my CG when handed in at Kid. Even tried dropping into a planetary belt to destroy the pirate who always scans your ship. Scanned him to be wanted, but even destroying him and returning to Kit to hand the kill in failed to add a single kill to my CG!

What the hell am I doing wrong?

Combat zones are warships rather than pirates (legal to shoot, but give combat bonds rather than bounties) so no use in this CG.

That should - provided the planetary belt was in the Dhan system! - have worked. It's possible that the CG is just being slow to update the score to your client - if you relog and then check whichever of left panel and station mission board you didn't check last time, that should give you a fresh view of it.

It looks like there's a "Resource Extraction Site (Hazardous)" in the system which should be a considerably more target-rich environment.

That is very helpful, so many thanks Ian

I have a really stupid question , to whom does one hand in the bounties to ? I have already signed up. To the ayatem administration, my power contact or someone else ? I know it’s a silly question .

The system administration in contacts in the station the CG is based at.
