    This report presents the latest data on the security status of the galaxy’s minor factions.

    Here are the latest factions to experience a lockdown:

    Dragons of HIP 1914

    Morgor Crimson Pirates

    Zeus Bureau

    United Wat Yu Confederacy

    Alliance of HIP 13269

    Crimson Major Incorporated

    Uniting Kupole

    Gold Netcoms Limited

    Traditional Hehe Flag

    Gendini Incorporated

    When a faction experiences a lockdown, the security rating of the system it controls temporarily increases and the system’s wealth temporarily decreases. Bounty hunting activity can shorten the lockdown period.

    Here are the latest factions to experience civil unrest:

    Orrere Ring

    Uszaa Society

    Green Party of Lung

    Ovid Democrats

    Republic Party of Thraskias

    Friends of HIP 20441

    Chaimal Jet Public Services

    Autocracy of HR 5307

    HIP 24655 allied

    Monarchy of HIP 24655

    Civil unrest is the result of illegal activity. When a faction is affected by civil unrest, the standard of living in the system it controls temporarily decreases, as does the system’s wealth. Combat missions and activities can bring civil unrest to an end.

  • Galactic News: Alliance Campaign Concludes

    The Alliance has announced that its new research initiative has been enthusiastically received by the galactic community. Huge quantities of resources were delivered to Neville Horizons over the past week, allowing the Alliance to start constructing a range of instruments expressly designed to analyse Thargoid material. The campaign also received the support of hundreds of independent combat pilots, who took to their ships to protect the spaceways and defend the traders contributing to the initiative.

    As the campaign drew to a close, an Alliance spokesperson said:

    “With the aid of the galactic community, we are now in a position to embark on a detailed study of Thargoid technology and other material. I hasten to add, however, that analysis of this kind is a slow process. The public should not expect profound revelations in the immediate future! But rest assured that our scientists will be working tirelessly to deepen our understanding of the Thargoids.”

    Pilots who contributed to the initiative can now collect their rewards from Neville Horizons in the Kaushpoos system.

  • Galactic News: Alliance Defends Research Initiative

    The Alliance has been criticised for its recent appeal for Thargoid data, which began only days after a joint-superpower initiative was established to study the Thargoids.

    A number of independent factions, including the Federal Republican Command, have censured the Alliance for its apparently contradictory stance.

    A spokesperson for the Alliance was quick to respond:

    “Aegis emerged from a spirit of unity, so we can understand why an independent initiative could be seen as undermining that philosophy. The simple truth is that it takes a long time to plan a campaign of this sort, and in this case our preparations began long before Aegis was established. Cancelling the campaign would have had dire repercussions for our partners, the Kaushpoos Pro-Alliance Union, to whom we have a contractual obligation. Rest assured that the instruments we plan to develop will be made available to Aegis, to which the Alliance is fully committed.”

  • Community Goal: Alliance Research Initiative

    The Alliance has launched a new research initiative designed to enhance human understanding of the Thargoids. The primary aim of the initiative is to build a range of state-of-the-art instruments expressly designed to analyse Thargoid material.

    To this end, the Alliance has placed an open order for unknown ship signatures, unknown organic circuitry and unknown technology components. The Kaushpoos Pro-Alliance Union has been authorised to oversee the campaign, and has promised to reward pilots who deliver the requested resources to Neville Horizons in the Kaushpoos system. The organisation has also placed a kill order on all ships on its wanted list, to ensure that those delivering resources to Neville Horizons can do so safely.

    In a statement, an Alliance spokesperson said:

    “Although humanity has had prior contact with the Thargoids, our knowledge remains limited. It is essential that we expand our understanding. We therefore intend to build a range of specialised tools and analytic instruments with which to study Thargoid material.”

    The campaign begins on the 10th of August 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

  • Galactic News: Joint Superpower Initiative Announced

    In recent weeks, a number of programmes have been launched to gather further information about the Thargoids. While the Federation has established an outpost in HIP 17692 to monitor Thargoid activity, independent organisation Abroin Universal PLC recently completed a campaign to amass material for a research centre in the Pleiades Nebula.

    But not everyone believes such initiatives represent the best way to proceed, with a growing number of voices calling for an inter-superpower initiative that consolidates existing knowledge and resources.

    Now these individuals are about to have their wishes granted. At a hastily convened press conference in the Sorbago system, Professor Alba Tesreau of the Achenar Research Council announced that a confederacy of scientists from the Empire, Federation and Alliance has united to establish a new organisation: Aegis. The organisation’s remit will be to gather further intelligence on the Thargoids and coordinate all future research.

    Professor Tesreau said:

    “While I applaud recent efforts to learn more about the Thargoids, we can achieve far more by working together. It is imperative that we coordinate our efforts, and share our knowledge and expertise. That is what Aegis has been created to achieve.”

    “Naturally, the cold war between the Federation and the Empire has complicated efforts to make this initiative a reality. Fortunately, while there may be antagonism between our governments, there is a strong desire for collaboration and cooperation within the scientific community.”

    Having received substantial funding from all three superpowers, Aegis will soon establish its first research outpost in the Pleiades Nebula.

    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:

    HIP 9610 Jet Legal Systems

    Alioth Pro-Alliance Group

    Gitxsan Limited

    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: 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:

    Laedla and Co

    Liberty Party of Zeessze

    Union of Wolf 359 Labour

    Kokary Liberals

    Crimson State Group

    Brani Federal Holdings

    Bureau of HIP 1914 Focus

    Lave Jet Family

    Revolutionary Party of Nuenets

    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:

    Apoyota Domain

    Morgor Crimson Pirates

    Aulin Republic Party

    Nang Ta-khian Public Co

    United Nang Ta-khian Confederacy

    Sif League

    G 239-25 Alliance

    United Harma for Equality

    Democrats of Masans

    Partnership of LTT 9315

    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.
