Enforcer Zaan looked down at the broken figure before him. In another lifetime, he would have called this filth brother.
The dissident coughed, and flecks of bloodied saliva span through the air. Cold fury radiated from the Enforcer as he washed the blood from his hands in a small bowl. Contempt permeated his voice as he passed sentence on the prisoner.
"Administrator Frey, you, along with your many associates have been found guilty of slave trading, social perversion and gross misconduct. You have wilfully undermined several systems within Utopian space for your own selfish desires: HR 17, Ahemez, Cao Yankir, Kaurukat, Minerva, Xi Mu and our science station at Takurua. They have fallen due to your collective moral corruption."
Frey's head slumped forwards as he heard Zaan speak. All resistance left his body as he finally understood his fate.
"Utopian laws dictate we legally process those who deviate from the Path, showing empathy and mercy. It is my opinion you are beyond such help and have been irrevocably tainted. You and your accomplices will be taken from Utopia and cast into the abyss, to experience first hand the depravity of galactic civilisation as a thrall of others. Your Sim Archive patterns will be deleted, and your Utopian life expunged. Your contamination ends now."
Zaan leant forwards and whispered in Freys ear.
"Such is the fate of all traitors".

Utopian dreamers, welcome to cycle 24! In this thread you will find information on everything going on in Utopia, from whats being prepped to fortification, expansion, bounty hunting, trade...its all here!
New to Powerplay? ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
This guide will help: https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteAntal/comments/3qjoad/guides_central_all_our_guides_in_one_place/
Intro ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
It has been a week to remember.
In previous cycles we had toiled week after week on fortification. We broke records continually, but something had to change. Together, we made that change!
With the SimGurus blessing, a Utopian wide operation has cleansed our power of malcontents who were destroying Utopia. Undercover Enforcers, Agitators and Strategists enacted the GIDEON protocol, and swept away corruption as it was found in several systems. As a result of this, seven systems were removed from Utopia:
Ahemez
Cao Yankir
HR 17
Kaurukat
Minerva
Takurua
Xi Mu
Utopia also thanks commanders from DaVinci Corp and SCRAP pilots who helped with this operation.
Four other system governments have been ethically realigned so that fortification triggers are lower.
Sadly, Takurua became a casualty in this operation. Although Utopian commanders undertook record breaking long range fortification efforts, the Utopian commune was evacuated for the safety of the science teams stationed there.
The Utopian Future Sciences council are now debating future projects and have invited citizens to come forward with ideas.
We also see the birth of a new player minor faction:

Current Standing ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
10 (=)
CC Projections ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
Base CC: 421 | Current CC: 38 |Projected CC : 421
Fortification ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
For now, fortification is not a primary objective- you heard me right, not a priority.
If you are desperate to get some merits through fortification though, start with:
Ewah
Midgard
Waikula
If we get undermined elsewhere, fortify those affected systems too.

Preparation ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
Due to last weeks turmoil, nothing to prepare. When SCRAP requests appear, I'll post the links.

System gov flips ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★ VERY important
FD have fixed the Background Simulation () so now is the time to spread Utopian values to our systems!
We have our first results- ethical realignment has occured in:
Kotilkekui - New fortification figure >2710
Lidpar New fortification figure >2756
MCC 868 New fortification figure >2916
LP 35075 - New fortification figure >2780
Fantastic work! Now we must continue and ensure all our systems have the correct governments.

Bounty Hunting ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
Rank 5 pays very well indeed....bounties are quadrupled in most cases! So if you want serious money, aim for this!
From Ben_Ryder>
These are the best places to hunt for bounties in our systems. Bounty hunting there makes us stronger in the system.
These should be our key bounty hunting targets, Listed in order of closest to our capital.
If you are a Bounty Hunter, I suggest these are the systems to hunt in.
At Rank 5 you get a fantastic bonus to bounty payouts too.

Trading ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░//★
To quote cdca:
You may be aware that I have a "Fortify + Trade" section in the sheet which shows you how you can make money at the same time as fortifying. However, Polevnic's Tanner Settlement isn't a strong trade hub, but the Baird Port outpost has a less flooded marketplace, which makes trading in a smaller craft like a Python or Asp a lot more attractive.
To that end, I've split the "Fortify + Trade" tab into two sections, one for Large ships and the other for Medium/Small ships. I've also added a few intermediate stops to spice up unprofitable routes.

Here is a quote from Fergals excellent Weekly Powerplay writeup: (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=199173&p=3085392#post3085392)
The crazy Utopians did it. Their controlled implosion shed 7 bad systems and their starting cc balance moved from -300 to 400. Undoubtedly a new system on the edge of the known universe will be prepared soon, until then, the Utopians can bask in their own glory of being the only Power able to successfully remove bad systems.
We made history- enjoy this moment!
