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:

Zaragas Energy Corp.

Liaedin Mafia

WISE 0855-0714 Gold Gang

Opala Power Commodities

Lokitaka Mu Silver Universal Net

Monoto Worker's Party

Chick Ek Partnership

Afli Patron's Principles

G 180-18 Jet Society

Alliance of HIP 13269

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:

Kini Drug Empire

Delta Pavonis Vision Services

Xihe Purple Brothers

Segoveduwa Empire Party

Nationalists of Aulin

Aulin Focus

HIP 111755 Commodities

Nationals of Algreit

Yenistani Commodities

Saisiyat Patron's Principles

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.

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:

Social Zaragas Independents

Brani Federal Holdings

New 31 Aquilae Green Party

G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

Ruchbah Industry

Kokary Holdings

Eravate Network

Brotherhood of LP 98-132

Zeessze Clan

Delphin Blue Federal PLC

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

Autocracy of Phi Gruis

Partnership of LHS 2819

League of Ross 1015

Atroan Gold Gang

Huaich Independents

Liberate Ceos

G 239-25 Alliance

People's Perendi Future

Wirangu Life Co

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.

Recent reports indicate that a garbled distress call from somewhere in the Col 70 sector has been received. The news has been met with surprise from some quarters, given that permit restrictions have made the sector relatively inaccessible.

"We're not sure what to make of it," said Perry Hussein, a member of the Federal intelligence community, "but it was definitely a distress call and the ship that sent it appears to have been destroyed. The telemetry indicates it was an older vessel, perhaps Cobra class."

A spokesperson for the Military Militia has extended its gratitude to those who supported its recent appeal for construction materials. In a statement, the spokesperson said:

"Thanks to the galactic community, we are now in a position to start work on the Soldiers' Respite installation."

Pilots who contributed to the initiative can now collect their rewards from Pellegrino Hub in the XI-2 Lupi system.

The Empire has announced plans to construct an outpost in the Andhrimi system, and has placed an open order for materials for use in the construction.

The Alectrona Imperial Society has been authorised to coordinate the campaign, and has promised to reward pilots who deliver building fabricators, energy grid assemblies and lithium to Yurchikhin Station in the Andhrimi system.

After learning of the Empire's plans to gain a foothold in the Andhrimi system, the Federation intends to undermine the operation by targeting Alectrona Imperial Society ships.

The rival campaigns begin on the 16th of March 3303 and will run for one week. If either organisation achieves its aims earlier than planned, the operations will end immediately.

Ambassador Cuthrick Delaney, steward of the Prism system, has announced that the Loren's Legion appeal for Tantalum has been enthusiastically received by the galactic community. Hundreds of independent pilots responded to the appeal, resulting in a massive influx of deliveries to Hiram's Anchorage, the organisation's base of operations.

In a statement, Delaney said:

"Loren's Legion would like to extend its gratitude to all the Commanders who rallied to our call. Our immediate economic issues have been addressed, thanks to your efforts."

Pilots who contributed to the initiative are now free to collect their rewards from Hiram's Anchorage in the Prism system.
