Volt, Ranglon, Ty, Lark, me and Ciaran are working the space. If you’re interested in colonizing, it’s a good location.PowerPlay Update: - unashamedly copied from KrugerFive’s post in our Discord, 12/4Kaine with the largest gains this week with +3 strongholds and +10 new systemsAisling after big losses last week regains most of the loss with +14 new systems, +3 forts, and +1 strongholdAisling looks recovered and adapting from the 1 ton changesLi Yong-Rui also starting to make a comeback tying Antal for 3rd for the weekOn the FDev leaderboard for number of systems:Aisling is back with the most systems gained with her +14Kaine in second with +10Torval losing -14 systems. Now losing ground to Archon Delainehttps://k5elite.com/ Now that we have 3 cycles of post 1 ton trading and re-introduction of power data download, we have a good view of who was affected most by the changes. The ASCII table (sorry if you are on your phone) shows the average each power was seeing from cycles 41-52 (non Relic rush cycles) vs cycle 55 and after (after 1t):+---------+------------+------+--------------------+| Power | 41-52 Avg | 55+ | Post 1t Difference |+---------+------------+------+--------------------+| Delaine | 200 | 433 | 233 || Grom | 1817 | 1833 | 16 || Antal | 1991 | 1804 | -188 || Kaine | 2307 | 2009 | -298 || Winters | 2053 | 1342 | -711 || Patreus | -97 | -892 | -795 || Archer | 2017 | 1117 | -900 || ALD | 1499 | 387 | -1112 || Mahon | 1816 | 656 | -1160 || Torval | 2096 | -502 | -2598 || Aisling | 4555 | 627 | -3928 || LYR | 6435 | 16 | -6420 |+---------+------------+------+--------------------+You can see LYR took a massive fall, along with Aisling and Torval. Basically no effect on Delaine, which seems obvious in retrospect. The real winners at have been Grom, Antal, Kaine, and Winters who dropped some, but kept most of their mid-range output to be productive in these first 3 cycles. With some trading for powerplay back in the picture it, Aisling/LYR adapting, and now a powerplay CG and war for the enclave bubble, things are interesting again.Dev News: GLOWING MUSHROOM TREES!CASPIAN!CG STYLE POWERPLAY FIGHTS!Galnet News: Galnet News | Elite Dangerous Community SitePilots’ Federation Members Enter HIP 87621Rumours Spread About HIP 87621 Flora HIP 87621 At Centre of Major Military ConflictZorgon Peterson Unveils Caspian Explorer VesselDiscussion:Powerplay Community Corner:https://youtu.be/KtFjhAFoZ6c - Alec Turner’s Mountains of Madness raceElite Dangerous:The Long Break - The High Wake (The Long Break)https://youtu.be/DH1MASLp30M - Goose Screws (for those who didn’t know)A new Loose Screws SRV event is in the works By Lark
