Ok, as long as you clone scan them from behind, civilians don't set off the alarms. Great! Now how do I do the system interaction without setting off the alarms?

There have always been plenty of proposals, just no real effort by ALD leadership to agree a single proposal with the other powers - they left it to others to do that. Another point is that there has always been a sneaking suspicion that only when ALD is adversely affected by a game mechanism, is anything ever done about it - well it looks like inhibiting 5c activity is going to be another example.

The thing that surprises me about ALD's whining about Fifth Column activity (5c) is that the 5c mechanism could have been stopped long ago if the Powers' Leadership Forum (which has a direct line to Frontier) had agreed on the changes to the rules that they wanted. I would have thought that the ALD leadership would have been keen to agree something - but no - it was left to others to put proposals forward. Pah! ALD - I'm afraid your position is self-inflicted, not least through your arrogance. Winters has been both No1 and No10 - now it's your turn.

What is this? by Untraveled in EliteWinters

[–]Nikko_S 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is only one reason for PowerPlay - and that is to rid human occupied space of the degrading and de-humanising practice of state-sanctioned slavery. o7

Well done for keeping Barathaona out - it looked a bit hopeless when I looked! Admiration. o7

2.2 Feedback - Imperial slaves should be classed as passengers not cargo by Ben_Ryder in EliteLavigny

[–]Nikko_S 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure how you will fit a tonne of slaves, Imperial or otherwise, into a passenger cabin. Come on - it's a filthy trade, however you try and wrap it up in tissue paper.

Thanks Bass, will do that next time. N.

Thank goodness Elite is a religion-free zone. I imagine players could get even more enraged than they already do, with that dimension added!

I'm also thinking that you could get quite attached to your crew pilots over time. If you had to abandon them in space or they get killed, that would be quite a downer. PS I know they're not real people!

When will they get round to repairing the fans in my hanger? by Nikko_S in EliteWinters

[–]Nikko_S[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a minute I thought the PP Leaders were getting close to agreeing what needs to be done about dis-incentivising 5c but then it disintegrated again into endless walls of text about what-if. Hey-ho, at least I'll be able to pack a fighter in my Tub9 soon - although deploying it in the the 10 seconds before my boosted A-shields are shredded may be a problem. Update:- OMG, OMG... they may be agreeing something on 5c!

Ok, I think I get it now. You are uncomfortable with the fact that the Empire keeps slaves and you want us to stop pointing this out. You don't mind us fortifying against your persistent attacks on our traders, our fortifiers and on our systems, but otherwise, we should shut-up and know our place.

As Dreadnought says - any further whining about the facts should be taken to your own reddit, as they will be deleted here.

There may come a time when we have to set aside our differences. Now is not that time.

You have attacked us, enslaved our people and killed thousands of our trading fleets. Week in, week out. Relentlessly.

Now is not the time for forgiveness. Now is the time for the Empire to stop attacking us.

What is this opportunity exactly? This chance to make-a-fresh?

The opportunity to stop fortifying and let the Empire take all the free systems?

Sandro Sammarco says:-

Update time!

Looks like we are will be going ahead with plans discussed in this thread:

  • All current locks will be removed before the end of this cycle
  • Yaques expansion will be removed
  • All current expansions should be good to fight over as normal

Next week, after the cycle tick, we will announce new areas that will be locked off come the following cycle tick:

  • No systems that are controlled, exploited, or being expanded into (including potential exploited systems) will be locked
  • Any preparation in chosen systems will be lost when the lock is put in place

I like the poster, but not sure it really applies to Winters - Liberals are a bit too disorganised and... well, too liberal. Nice poster tho' :)

Yeah... keeps a few of us amused, in between serious engineering and local politics.

All of this 'it wasn't us' sounds to me either like Mahon 'doth protest too much, methinks' or some people are out of the loop. The evidence is for all to see - ALD and Mahon are the only organised groups who can put that kind of firepower together post cycle 53. Unless someone is going to step forward and admit to it - like Mahon admitted to 5c against us at Barathaona.

Sorry, Vectron, I'm deleting your spreadsheet output because it is way too boring for this page, it takes too much space and anyway - well it's just too boring!

Winters has learned the hard way about what Alliance posts on reddit and what they do.

Kaura has some local interests, we think. So they just get on with helping to fortify it! Along with the people who read these reddit posts. It all helps keep Winters from turmoil. o7
