At 7.00 am tomorrow morning (GMT), the monitoring of powers' activities will go offline for a short period while the latest data is assembled. Pilots who operate for one of the powers should deliver any cargo or vouchers before this time to ensure their activities are registered.

This report presents the latest data on health issues among the galaxy’s minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to experience famine:

HIP 105577 Boys

Ololos Drug Empire

United Hatmehit Revolutionary Party

Hatmehit Purple Crew

Mooramoora Union Party

Quambo Free

Waime Worker's Party

Traditional Auste Dominion

HIP 116298 Jet Cartel

Values Party of HIP 42408

When a faction is affected by famine the standard of living in the system it controls temporarily decreases. Combat activity has no effect on influence while a famine is active. Completing food-trade missions can bring a famine to an end.

Here are the latest factions to experience an outbreak:

HIP 105577 One

Eravate Network

Kvenland Services

Left Party of HIP 43845

HIP 19773 Shared

Modgud Commodities

Independents of Jura Lungs

Aymifa Resistance

Traditional Siluruba Autocracy

Co-operative of Yiman

When a faction is affected by an outbreak the standard of living in the system it controls temporarily decreases. Combat activity has no effect on influence while an outbreak is active. Completing medicine-supply missions can bring an outbreak to an end.

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:

Delta Pavonis Vision Services

WISE 0855-0714 Gold Gang

Partnership of LHS 2819

Macame Industries

G 180-18 Jet Society

Coalition of Djagana

Quince Creative Holdings

New Perktomen Left Party

Purple Central and Co

HIP 20916 Left Party

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:

Lords of Ngaliba

United Wat Yu Confederacy

Emperor's Will

Codorain Network

Morgor Crimson Pirates

Quince Creative Holdings

Quince Jet Family

Nobles of Eoto

Leaders of Aunochis

LTT 4716 Jet Netcoms Industry

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:

Brotherhood of LP 98-132

Uru Federal Interstellar

Wolf 359 Blue Travel Commodities

Union of Wolf 359 Labour

Ngaliba Blue Camorra

Potriti Gold Mafia

Cemiess Commodities

Coquim Industry

Orrere Ring

Eravate Network

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:

Nang Ta-khian Public Co

LHS 535 Silver United Ltd

League of Ross 1015

Calennero Shared

Sif League

League of Orishpucho Movement

Backlum Gold Allied Organisation

League of 36 Ursae Majoris

Lopocareni United

Taliesin Crimson Fortune Systems

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.

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:

Partnership of Nitikaba

Atung Mussa Purple Comms Ind

Yimanbin Nationalists

Osuntes Interstellar

Cakutsi Movement

Koing Dynasty

Democrats of HIP 57080

Union of Aiaba Partnership

Awa One

Alliance of Gunwini

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:

HIP 13269 Silver Drug Empire

Sui Xenates Indie Union

Movement for Pienate Labour

HIP 17984 Gold Brotherhood

Kikua Empire Party

Coalition of Djagana

Unified Tagarilocan

Kumbia Ltd

Wakam Central Commodities

Orisala Co-operative

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.

The appeal from the Canonn Interstellar Research Group for materials for a new research vessel has received an unprecedented level of support. The organisation has therefore decided to extend its original targets.

A spokesperson for the organisation released the following statement:

“The level of support from the galactic community is truly amazing. We have therefore decided to add new cash tiers to our campaign so we can bolster the ship’s specifications, and amass a quantity of material for the scientific voyages the Gnosis has been designed for.”

“This also gives more of the community an opportunity to contribute to this historic campaign.”

This report presents the latest data on conflict among the galaxy’s minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to experience a civil war:

Vanayequi Independents

United LHS 3479 Green Party

LHS 3479 Interstellar

Eravate Life Services

Allied FK5 2550 Autocracy

FK5 2550 PLC

Purungurawn Purple Society

Zeaex Flag

Partnership of GD 215

Luyten 674-15 Industries

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:

Colanja Gold Power Services

New 31 Aquilae Green Party

Ross 754 Labour

G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

Order of Ethgreze

Coquim Industry

Crimson State Group

Labour of Ethgreze

Coalition of Ngaliba

Liberty Party of Zeessze

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.

A spokesperson for the Alliance has announced that its appeal for construction materials has been enthusiastically received by the galactic community. Hundreds of pilots responded to the appeal, resulting in a massive influx of deliveries to Darwin Research Facility in the California Sector BV-Y c7 system.

As the campaign drew to a close, the Alliance released a brief statement:

“Without the support of the galactic community it would have taken months to amass these materials, but now we are in a position to start work straight away. Those who supported this campaign have our sincerest gratitude.”

Pilots who contributed to the initiative can now collect their rewards from Darwin Research Facility in the California Sector BV-Y c7 system.

The Canonn Interstellar Research Group has announced plans to construct a new deep-space research vessel to support its mission of apolitical collaborative research. The purpose of the ship – which will be called the Gnosis – is to aid explorers and scientists from various fields, and to provide facilities for pilots conducting scientific research in deep space.

The LTT 377 Allied Co, on behalf of the Canonn, has placed an open order for indium, computer components and tea, and has promised to reward pilots who deliver these commodities to Zoline Port in the LTT 377 system. The organisation has also launched a bounty hunting campaign to protect traders travelling to Zoline Port.

Dr Arcanonn, head of Canonn, released the following statement:

“The need for such a resource is undeniable, and I hope it will fulfil the needs of both the scientific community and the wider galactic society.”

The campaign begins on the 11th May 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

This report presents the latest data on democratic activity among the galaxy’s minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to hold elections:

GCRV 4654 State Interstellar

Groombridge 1618 Inc

39 Tauri Interstellar

Labour of Geras

Progressive Party of Abukunin

Fawaol Patrons of Law

New CD-61 6801 Flag

Barnard's Star Alliance

LP 811-17 Gold Energy Partners

Theta Indi Crimson Netcoms Dev

Elections occur when two minor factions with a similar political structure resolve a conflict over ownership and influence within a system.
