Horizons Massacre Missions Suddenly Hard to Find

I used to travel around, following wars, civil or otherwise, to fight for the Federation and get rank with Massacre missions (in a conflict zone). Now, when I travel to a war, I'm lucky to get a massacre mission at all! What the heck is going on? Ranking up with the minor factions doesn't solve the problem and forget about any kind of consistency utilizing any kind of methodology. Massacre missions are far more fun and dynamic than RES sites, while the payout is rewarding enough to travel around following them. Or at least it was, until you travel and discover that there are no Massacre missions to be had, no matter what you do or where you go. I have to wonder if this is working as intended. If so, it sucks.
 
Im currently based in Caleta/Watson station for rep with the Dukes of Jotun for the Jotun Permit.
Ive seen Massacre missions on my travels .
If not on Caleta then for the various factions Ive been delivering to..
Even tho I'm Pledged to AD I kinda roleplay that I've been sent on covert ops so I do missions for all factions in a system :)

Make that Nangura/Cabana Station..currently there are Massacre missions for Federation and Independants in this system
League of Mawasi(Fed)..massacre Nangura Blue Family..
Nangura Blue Family(Ind)..massacre Mawasi..
check out Ahern Vista planetary base as well :)

Also Massacre missions at Shasir/Cummings station

mind you, Im Allied with most factions in Caleta..almost Allied with Dukes so hopefully my Permit for Jotun appears soon.

you seem to have bad luck.

i do find them on a regulary basis, i need about five to seven reloads of the mission board to gather around 4 or 5 missions.

Did someone ever tried to understand the underlaying mission generation?
I have seen so many strange thinks. Once flipped the mission board out of curiosity ten times (yeah not so much..) but there never
spawned massacre mission from one particular faction, only the opposition did spawn missions?

Then now there is a war in CET, the invading faction already has a lead over +30% than the controlling faction? How is that possible?
And on top of it, the invader spawns far more missions than the defender? I gues the number of mission a faction spawns, depends only on there influence in there current system?

I found one system where the whole board of nearly every faction was eliminate pirate missions, but I forget where it was.
 
Yesterday I checked missions somewhere and one of the Givers had 5 massacre missions and nothing else. Several or ten or maybe twenty jumps in what I do had many massacre missions in most of the systems.
I guess it depends how far you go or how many sideways trips you do.

Don't get me wrong, in the past I have found them just like you just fine. But lately, I've flown all around about a third of the bubble, and I can't seem to catch ones for the federation despite the fact that they are one of the fighting factions. The problem I am having is mostly what you are talking about when you say only one faction spawning missions. I've learned the only way to get missions for those factions is to accept missions for the opposing faction and, if I get lucky, get some offers to switch sides afterwards. I, too, would like to know what the mechanics are.

That happens to me once in a while, or at least it used to, but not lately, not nearly as much.

As I've mentioned to others above, that's happened to me in the past. But lately, when I've gone out hunting wars and civil wars across about 1/3 of the bubble, didn't find anything nearly like that. Worst yet, I couldn't find *any* for the fed factions (I only go where at least one of the factions is fed.) The latter is my real complaint.
