so it works?
It's supposed to according to people on the AXI Discord channels. They recommend a ECM + PD combo. Will verify it tomorrow myself in Sol
Titan on the move......

I believe it does work against the Thargoid hatchbreaker, people who've been running evacs with Scythes more than I have (or at least more with a shieldless setup) say that it can potentially stop them. ECM will also do the trick however, if you want an additional layer of safety (may want to bring one anyway to divert the FSD disruption missile away).so it works?
Lore question: How is taking a week to reach Sol from Col 285 Sector BA-P c6-18 "moving at phenominal speed?"
It's relative to the mode of travel used. Titans do not "jump" between systems as we and the regular Thargoid ships do, they instead travel at superluminal speeds using what forms the basis of SCO in our ships now.
... and it might potentially be more than a week until it gets to its destination. Two would in fact be quite enough to fit in one week of alert and (providing it is not cleared, and/or Frontier don't manually trigger an invasion anyway) one week of invasion - which if it is as toughened as the alert state could last past a single week as well.
I smell heresy.
I think I heard a rumor somewhere that frontier stated something about this event being totally unexpected, having to do with a rogue artificial intelligence element in the program running the thargoid Titans.The question is ... is it supposed to be moving or is it a bug?
So yes, it's moving and yes, it's a bug...and the darn thing is coming right for us.
If you wish, you may start to panic now. This will mean the end of elite dangerous as we have known it, and prepare us for the next version of elite dangerous which will be all of us as refugees.
I guess it's just as well I was not tempted to fly out over 300 million ls in order to 'meet' Cocijo as it's moving to deliver its message of doom real personal-like.
... but instead I am doing a mini-Hutton by setting the ship off on .13ly from Voyager 1 to Voyager 2. So far no curious Thargoids have snatched them (or the New Horizons probe), it seems.
Personally, I think the Proteus wave may have been a signal to the surviving part of the Guardian civilisation and not just the Thargoids.
Perhaps the Titans should establish a shield and prepare us to fight an enemy that is not biological at all. Maybe that's why humans were abducted and possibly altered.
Maybe the war was to prepare us for what was to come, a kind of challenge.
Maybe humanity's last stand in Sol will be with these Thargoids against the remnants of the Guardian AI or Thargoid Overord.
We'll see where it goes.

A team of AX pilots dropped in to protect it when I was there. (I'd originally flew out 2.1 Mls in the direction of Cocijo then realised Voyager was over there...they'd added a tourist beacon since I'd last visited.)
According to reports , the EDF is currently finishing off their drinks, and will be in the Sol system just as the last titan is defeated and claim the credit for the kill.

what system is it in right now?
Should still be between Qinganu and Col 285 Sector OS-T d3-146 if it hasn't sped up massively. Although much closer to the latter than the former.
When I was in Sol I did not have the "HOSTILE" warning on my dash. I figured the rules might have been suspended?
That might be the "Thargoid invasion removes Powerplay" rule kicking in... but apparently it applies to the alert state as much as an outright invasion. According to Inara Sol is "Unoccupied" currently.

That certainly fits the observation.
