Elite: Game talk
11 Mar 2021, 1:16pm
Terrorist attacks during the talks seem to the rational to be contrary to the terrorists goals. Bombing the factions you're hoping will support your agenda seems contrary to that goal, but, the point of them is to apply pressure to force capitulation to the demands, not come to a rational agreement.
Frankly, for me, the only suspect part of this event is how easily the NMLA can commit these atrocities. Didn't all the relevant factions go on high alert the week prior to the talks? To be able to get Thargoid weaponry in position to attack multiple capital stations, and do so simultaneously, without any of the perpetrators being caught in the act is just... unlikely. Yet, they've successfully attacked multiple times now without being caught before the bombs went off.
Edit: Meta talk now. What a perfect time to get all your faction reps to max. Now everyone will be flying around in Corvettes and Cutters...

SakashiroOK, so I hopped into my Courier and investigated, and here's what I found:
If you enter Sirius with something in your cargo hold, you may or may not receive a familiar message in local chat: "So the rumors were true, good I found you first" or "Big haul, surprised you made it this far" etc.
If you receive that sort of message and submit to the subsequent interdiction, you will be attacked immediately, even if you jettison your cargo.
But it gets even weirder: If your ship is fast and you manage to low-wake out, you will after a few seconds receive that sort of message in local chat again. The NPC(s) will not register that your cargo hold is now empty, and will chain-interdict you.
I have a battle wagon Anaconda for just that type of situation.

Amata LireinWell, there's still the possibility that the Jupiter Division were the mysterious Federal backers of the NMLA...
Don't look at us, I haven't located the Supreme Executive yet and I doubt he was in one of those stations
