Thargoids heading for Li Yong space...

Eh, I disagree. 15% off plus the Elite discount makes a significantly cheaper ship, especially when you start bolting on modules that cost more than the ship itself. Plus it lowers your rebuy. Regardless of "levels of income," anything that keeps more credits in my pocket matters. Bear in mind I am a 2+ year CMDR whose net worth is a relatively measly 1.89 bilion.
I've just found the replacement message...Now I realise why the welcome message has been cut off at Engineer bases. It is to be replaced on Tuesday by a Thargoid announcing each base is under their control

And with an important toll fee
They do to me.
Mine too!
On a serious note, what actually happens to your fleet when a station gets attacked? Do you still have access to the shipyard? Or are you stuck in the last ship you happened to be using before the attack and have to wait for the station to be repaired?

It gets relocated to a rescue ship.
Not so much with Ray Gateway.
If they hit Jameson, though, you will hear one directive from the Pilot's Federation regarding the Thargoids.

Brilliant, thanks for doing the math.
But devs and programmers work in powers of two ...... doubling up each time
How's about we step out of character for a minute.....
Fdev controls where the 'Goids go. Right now, they've only attacked stations with Aegis labs, and considering the tech in the labs, I don't blame them being a little trigger happy, if it means not having to deal with anti-goid WMDs later on.
And considering Fdev bang on about narrative, I would guess going off this path is unlikely at best...

We can't defend a station so there's nothing we can do about these scripted events.
Exactly this. All we can do is watch and see what FD is going to do vis the Thargoid. All we can do is make futile attempts to repair stations, do Thargoid-related CGs, and fight Thargoids in RNG-determined locations that as far as I can tell make no difference whatsoever.
So get some popcorn, sit back, and watch the show.
I always assumed the Guardians (currently) known bases were all abandoned ruins. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the bugs themselves wiped them out in the first place. Assuming this is the case, no need to go there anymore.
Two things motivate commanders like nothing else. Appealing to their wallet. And appealing to their wallet. I hope the many-legged honking flower-people rip through the bubble and trash vast areas so people can come onto the forums for the first time ever to have a big old vent about how dare Frontier ruin their immersive experience of endlessly pinballing between two stations with cargo.
Vast. Areas. Do it.
But, let's be honest; at the speed the thargoids are moving, the next century will roll over before anything of note happens. Frontier either need to escalate the threat, or come up with a new strategy. 2-3 stations a cycle is so low impact as to be, well, irrelevant.
Now; if the many-legged honking space-flowers roll over several systems at once, then that'll be far more interesting. But do we think Frontier will do this? Beuller?
