Powerplay PP2.0: where's a good place to position yourself for the next set of weekly assignments?

[SlickPBW]

Given that a lot of the PP2.0 assignments are broken, and some others are too much of a pain to be worth it, how do you PP pros position yourselves on Wednesday nights to maximize your chances of getting 10 achievable assignments, if that's even possible?

• are acquisition, reinforcing, undermining systems better?
• strongholds?
• near or away from the "front lines"?
• in/near systems with lots of anarchy settlements?
• elsewhere?

What say you?

I don't think there's a lot to do which can influence the type of assignment you get (though only the data ones are outright broken at that level).

Most of the other bugs are to do with it picking specific systems which don't work, so positioning yourself well outside the Powerplay area in general might help to get mostly "any location" missions.

The one thing I wouldn't do is place myself well within my own space a long way from anyone's borders, because that's a recipe for getting "kill other powers / holohacks" missions in an ultra-secure reinforcement system that's never going to have that.

If you are interested in those, just go back at your HQ as that seemed (at least for the ones on our side who did it) a solution offering the best chances to complete them all.

Where you are when they are issued seems to influence where you get sent though. When I was sticking around my colonized system, sometimes three out of ten assignments were actually in that system (making some of them not doable as it's just a star, a gas giant and an outpost), the rest one or two stops nearby if they required a source or target system. Now that I am on the other side of the bubble, I haven't actually checked where the assignments send me, but it's not my system anymore.
