First of all, if you are a new supporter of the Federal president, take a look at some useful information:

Diplomatic Overview

“America has no permanent friends or enemies, only interests” ― Henry Kissinger

Take a look at this excellent post:


Week 18 Diplomatic Report

If you don't want to read a book - we're good friends with Winters, we're OK with the Alliance, Sirius, Antal, and Kumo Crew, and we're hostile with all of the Imperial powers.


We're open to any diplomatic talks with any of the powers at any time, but they will need to make the first move given the current political climate.

Overview for week 19

We are out of turmoil and are currently 4th in the standings with 40CC in the bank. Do not prep anything because anything worth that much will be a loss-making system. We lost Katurru, which is good, and we were able to get our expansions. Our fortifiers did an excellent job in getting our profitable systems secured. Overall, the results from last cycle are pretty mediocre - it could have been better, but it is what it is. The good news is we have a whole new week to go out and do it again!

This is why we need to help our fortifiers early, so they can react to this stuff at the end of the cycle. Please do some fortifying if you are not already. Every little bit helps ;)

Preparation

"Choose wisely, for while the true Grail will bring you life, the false Grail will take it from you" -- Grail Knight, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

We only have 40 CC, we shouldn't prepare anything.


Fortification

"What is the object of defence? To preserve. To preserve is easier than to acquire." -- Carl von Clausewitz

"To Uddermine is great but to Fortify is Bovine!" -- The Battle Cattle

First off, please review the Fortification for Dummies post to check to make sure you're aware of everything. There are various ship builds there too.

No expansions this week.

Reporting

How does it work?


  • When you spot a CZ in a Hudson exploited or controlled system, open this form, fill it, specifying that the conflict is ongoingand submit. That will allow other commanders to see which conflicts are active on this sheet. There's a timestamp in GMT (game time) so you know that the newest the submission, the more probable that the conflict is still there.
  • If you arrive into a system that has been previously indicated in the sheet but you find no CZs, then you should open the formand fill it, indicating that the conflict is over. It will be appended to the list so the idea is that any conflict that is not signaled as over may still be there, even if the timestamp is old.
You'll find the links to the submission form and the result sheet on the right panel in this subreddit, under "Useful Tools and Spreadsheets" and below.

The last few weeks where Hudson started picking his players togethers made things just a little more interesting compared to the zerg rush on the pirates.
