  • Galactic News: Weekly Expansion Report

    This report presents the latest data on expansion and withdrawal among the galaxy's minor factions.

    Here are the latest factions to have expanded into new systems:

    Partnership of Nitikaba

    Atung Mussa Purple Comms Ind

    Yimanbin Nationalists

    Osuntes Interstellar

    Cakutsi Movement

    Koing Dynasty

    Democrats of HIP 57080

    Union of Aiaba Partnership

    Awa One

    Alliance of Gunwini

    Expansions occur when a minor faction reaches a sufficient level of influence and there is a populated system within striking distance. Expansion is costly, so when a faction expands, the wealth and development level of the system it controls are temporarily reduced.

    Here are the latest factions in withdrawal:

    HIP 13269 Silver Drug Empire

    Sui Xenates Indie Union

    Movement for Pienate Labour

    HIP 17984 Gold Brotherhood

    Kikua Empire Party

    Coalition of Djagana

    Unified Tagarilocan

    Kumbia Ltd

    Wakam Central Commodities

    Orisala Co-operative

    Factions are considered to be in withdrawal if their level of influence within a system drops below a certain level. If the faction's influence remains low for a total of five days, the faction must leave the system entirely. If the faction manages to increase its level of influence, it remains in the system.

  • Galactic News: Canonn Campaign Extended

    The appeal from the Canonn Interstellar Research Group for materials for a new research vessel has received an unprecedented level of support. The organisation has therefore decided to extend its original targets.

    A spokesperson for the organisation released the following statement:

    “The level of support from the galactic community is truly amazing. We have therefore decided to add new cash tiers to our campaign so we can bolster the ship’s specifications, and amass a quantity of material for the scientific voyages the Gnosis has been designed for.”

    “This also gives more of the community an opportunity to contribute to this historic campaign.”

  • Galactic News: Weekly Conflict Report

    This report presents the latest data on conflict among the galaxy’s minor factions.

    Here are the latest factions to experience a civil war:

    Vanayequi Independents

    United LHS 3479 Green Party

    LHS 3479 Interstellar

    Eravate Life Services

    Allied FK5 2550 Autocracy

    FK5 2550 PLC

    Purungurawn Purple Society

    Zeaex Flag

    Partnership of GD 215

    Luyten 674-15 Industries

    Civil wars occur when minor factions compete for control of major assets such as starports. When a faction is involved in a civil war, the standard of living, development level and security level in the system it controls are temporarily reduced. Combat activities can bring a civil war to an end.

    Here are the latest factions to experience war:

    Colanja Gold Power Services

    New 31 Aquilae Green Party

    Ross 754 Labour

    G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

    Order of Ethgreze

    Coquim Industry

    Crimson State Group

    Labour of Ethgreze

    Coalition of Ngaliba

    Liberty Party of Zeessze

    Wars occur when a minor faction invades a star system controlled by another minor faction. For the duration of the war, the standard of living, wealth level and security level in the disputed system are reduced. Combat activity between the two warring factions determines the outcome of the conflict. If neither faction succeeds in dominating the other, the war ends in a ceasefire.

  • Galactic News: Alliance Campaign Concludes

    A spokesperson for the Alliance has announced that its appeal for construction materials has been enthusiastically received by the galactic community. Hundreds of pilots responded to the appeal, resulting in a massive influx of deliveries to Darwin Research Facility in the California Sector BV-Y c7 system.

    As the campaign drew to a close, the Alliance released a brief statement:

    “Without the support of the galactic community it would have taken months to amass these materials, but now we are in a position to start work straight away. Those who supported this campaign have our sincerest gratitude.”

    Pilots who contributed to the initiative can now collect their rewards from Darwin Research Facility in the California Sector BV-Y c7 system.

  • Community Goal: Canonn Launches Campaign

    The Canonn Interstellar Research Group has announced plans to construct a new deep-space research vessel to support its mission of apolitical collaborative research. The purpose of the ship – which will be called the Gnosis – is to aid explorers and scientists from various fields, and to provide facilities for pilots conducting scientific research in deep space.

    The LTT 377 Allied Co, on behalf of the Canonn, has placed an open order for indium, computer components and tea, and has promised to reward pilots who deliver these commodities to Zoline Port in the LTT 377 system. The organisation has also launched a bounty hunting campaign to protect traders travelling to Zoline Port.

    Dr Arcanonn, head of Canonn, released the following statement:

    “The need for such a resource is undeniable, and I hope it will fulfil the needs of both the scientific community and the wider galactic society.”

    The campaign begins on the 11th May 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

  • Galactic News: Weekly Economic Report

    This report presents the latest data on the economic health of the galaxy’s minor factions.

    Here are the latest factions to experience an economic boom:

    Colanja Gold Power Services

    Ross 754 Labour

    Order of Ethgreze

    Cemiess Commodities

    Kokary Holdings

    Eravate Network

    Panoi Holdings

    Boom is usually the result of consistent trade profit and completed trade contracts. When a faction experiences a boom, the wealth of the system it controls temporarily increases and trade missions completed in the system have double the effect on influence. The faction’s influence may also increase. Booms typically last until they naturally expire.

    Here are the latest factions to experience an economic bust:

    Coalition of Ngaliba

    League of Orishpucho Movement

    Lopocareni United

    Values Party of Orishpucho

    Libanatya Gold Netcoms Comms

    Social HIP 86063 Free

    Aristocrats of G 239-25

    Lidpar Blue Hand Gang

    Confederacy of Hyperion

    When a faction experiences a bust, the wealth of the system it controls is temporarily reduced and the faction’s influence is temporarily diminished. Trade actions do not contribute to boom while a bust is active. A bust typically has to run its course before ending.
