  • Galactic News: Conflict in Jotunheim Draws to a Close

    Authorities in Jotunheim have announced that the operation to drive the Autocracy of Jotunheim from the system has succeeded.

    The organisation entered the system in order to bring it under Imperial control, but the Revolutionary Jotunheim Resistance was swiftly mobilised to repel the incursion.

    Both factions issued calls for support, and hundreds of independent combat pilots responded, but ultimately the Revolutionary Jotunheim Resistance emerged victorious. The Autocracy of Jotunheim has now withdrawn from the system.

    The success of the resistance operation was due in no small part to the support of Jasmina Halsey. Scores of pilots responded to her request for commodities, which were then donated to Revolutionary Jotunheim Resistance.

    As the conflict drew to a close, representatives of the Revolutionary Jotunheim Resistance and the Yum Kamcabi Purple Life Industry thanked those who supported their operations.

    Pilots who participated in the conflict can now collect their rewards from Big Harry's Monkey Hangout in the Jotunheim system.

  • Galactic News: Barnacles Targeted by Unknown Ships

    Recent reports from the Pleiades Sector OI-T c3-7 system indicate that the so-called Unknown Ships have begun interacting with the region’s barnacles.

    Eyewitnesses report that the ships have been seen targeting the barnacles with some kind of energy beam, apparently in order to extract matter from them. Pilots have also reported that their ships and SRVs spontaneously lose power while in proximity to the Unknown Ship.

    The news follows reports that the Unknown Ships have been seen at the locations of mysterious attacks in the Maia system.

    We will continue to bring you up-to-the-minute reports on this issue.

  • 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:

    Nun Major Industry

    Movement for Tobarci Confederacy

    Imset Patron's Principles

    New Rutujil People's Party

    Gunwithhogg Travel Industries

    HR 8250 Camorra

    Param Co-operative

    Maribone Silver Electronics Co

    Kwatyriel and Co

    Othi Silver Legal Corp.

    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:

    HR 8170 Brotherhood

    Wolf 217 Left Party

    Anduliga Empire Group

    Njangamarda Empire Party

    Brotherhood of Caerete

    Begovans Industry

    Liu Di Imperial Society

    Atlantis Empire League

    BD+14 2955 Republic Party

    Tatapai Empire Assembly

    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.
