This report presents the latest data on the economic health of the galaxy’s minor factions.

Order of Ethgreze

G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

Ruchbah Industry

Zeessze Clan

Cemiess Commodities

Eravate Network

Liberty Party of Zeessze

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:

Ngaliba Blue Camorra

Brotherhood of LP 98-132

Lords of Ngaliba

Potriti Gold Mafia

Morgor Crimson Pirates

Keries Camorra

Aleutes Bureau

HIP 5700 Empire League

Friends of Varramool

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.

A group of EM-transmission technology enthusiasts in the Tionisla system claims to have found a message in the exploration data gathered last year as part of a campaign organised by the Children of Raxxla.

A spokesperson for the group, which calls itself The Hamsters, said:

“It was inside one of the beacon modulator wave harmonics, and it seems to be some sort of rhyme. We’ve studied it but have come up with nothing, so we thought we’d share it with the galactic community.”

The message is reprinted in full below.

The river to the underworld

Gaia’s daughter all unfurled

Fourth minor bear in vain

Leader of the Titans

Women of vengeance infernal

The vain queen rides not forth

A final word, a course to follow, a poor miser’s sum

Crimson State Group

Eranin Peoples Party

Labour of Geras

HR 8170 Brotherhood

Factions are considered to be in withdrawal if their level of influence within a system drops below a certain level.

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.

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.

It has now been eight months since the first Colonia outpost was established, and since then the colony has gone from strength to strength.

With the Colonia community continuing to expand, the Colonia Co-operative has placed an open order for mined Gallite, Gold and Methanol Monohydrate Crystals for the development of infrastructure throughout Colonia and the surrounding systems.

A spokesperson for the Colonia Co-operative released a statement:

"It would be impossible to overstate how many resources are needed to sustain and grow the Colonia community. Suffice it to say that we are in constant need. Fortunately, thanks to a series of corporate donations, we are in a position to offer generous premiums to pilots who deliver materials to Colonia Dream in the Eol Prou Lw-L C8-76 system."

The campaign begins on the 13th of April 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

The Utopia Commune has issued a request for various commodities to be used in a forthcoming research and development programme.

The enclave has placed an open order for zirconium, conductive ceramics and strange wake solutions, and has promised to reward pilots who deliver these commodities to Cenker City in the Gucumadhyas system.

Simguru Pranav Antal, leader of the Utopian movement, released a statement outlining the nature of the initiative.

"We are well aware that independent pilots accumulate large quantities of material over the course of their travels. Fortunately, Utopia is willing to pay above-market prices for these materials, which will play a central role in our forthcoming programme."

The campaign begins on the 13th of April 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.
