Faction Watch - dMw control in Zeta Trianguli Australis

[Aquilifer]

Are pending states guaranteed to happen? If I make too much cargo missions and donations to dmw could it prevent civil war to happen? And if the civil war is wanted to happen maybe I should just go kill all wanted ships (other than dmw) in res sites :g:

[albert]

Just to request that we do not try to increase dMw standing in ZTA until the Civil War begins, I wouldn't want to get so far ahead again we don't get to fight!

[albert]

And the Civil War begins. All Commanders to your favoured ship of war [emoji1] !

Could be up to a week if it's a close battle. Right now we're being hammered.

Right. Well I'll be on tonight anyway. I'd appreciate some cover in the zones though.

For sure. We have at least 2 Corvettes and 1 Python and an Anaconda. So two groups of 3 and each wing will have regeneration beams. Probably best if you lose the Biweaves because you can't run far in a combat zone at least not far enough to regenerate.

35.5% dMw vs 36.6% ZTA Corp.

Our efforts made up a 10% swing last night. If we can gain 20mill between 6 people then we should make a big dent.

I got bit worried is it really so that bounties for wanted ships count (because we were 15% down before). Tried to search and maybe the most realiable link is this... https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/node/362

It is nearly 2 years and quite a few patches old so don't know how much it is up to date. Anyway it says (in the small box down the page) "Civil war....only combat missions and actions count". I'm not sure does 'combat missions' count RES hunting. Anyway to be sure I have done CZ combat and completing those "Massacre for Zeta Trianguli Australis Corporation ships" at the same time. You get good money for the missions and at least they are counted. The bad thing is that how it goes at CZ site seem to be lot to luck as well. Once I had to go home after 15 kills and 400k bonds (bcause out of SCB and getting damage), but the next trip I got over 100 kills, 3.4m in bonds and heading home just that I can complete the contract to kill 100 those ZTA corps ships. So I've done two of those "Massacre X number of ZTA corp ships" (48 and 108 ships). Don't know how much those count.

Also...there are some missions which say something like "Deliver these blaah blaah to somewhere to help in the current civil war". Maybe in hte current game version it is possible to help in civil war to delivering those...not sure.

I know from testing this that you can a) take a mission to kill X ZTA Corp ships (30 100 or whatever) b) kill them in a RES zone or Combat zone c) All kills count towards teh war effort and d) All kills of ZTA Corp ships count towads the mission you took. So all good. Just don't take missions to kill FOR ZTA Corp!

[albert]

Ok folks, we need to rethink. We lost a lot of ground yesterday on the ZTA Corp and I cannot think of reasons for this other than a) numbers participating for dMw and b) what we kill and c) more importantly what we hand in to Guest City.

Its 43% vs 26% not in our favour at this point. We need to reverse this trend!

So tonight if anyone is considering playing. a) battle int the Combat Zone not the RES zone b) do not hand in bounties for ANY other faction in Zeta as it seems some of our influence has gone the way of the lower factions because we are probably boosting them c) of course do not hand in anything for the ZTA Corp and certainly not at Hartlib Barracks!

Only hand in dMw Alliance bounties OR join dMw in the Combat Zone and hand in combat bonds at Guest City.

Thanks.

[Galatoni]

Right. I wasn't able to cash in any missions last night. The numbers didn't stack as I expected to and I was unable to complete the largest mission kill list. Hopefully there is still enough time to complete at least some of it tonight. Though since it's 24 hours, I doubt it. So all that was for nought from me.

You can still hand in the bounties though can't you?
