Myke175When participating in power play can you join and leave any of the powers throughout the game play. Thinking of becoming like a "Free-Agent" across the powers. Templated every 30 days or so.


You can join or leave any power. There are some minor repercussions from leaving one (they send some ships to attack on occasion for a few days I believe) but otherwise you do not have to stay with any power if you do not want to. You do need to be with a power for at least 4 weeks to get access to their faction item however, and be rank 3.

https://inara.cz/minorfactions/ - search for the minor faction name that you have bounties. Any station that they are present will get your bounty vouchers.

https://inara.cz/nearest/ - apply filter interstellar factors. Any station with interstellar factors will buy any bounty vouchers but with subtracted 25%.

What is not clear?

Wow, I chose the wrong time to leave the bubble. CG basically offering fleet carriers for top 10%
The galaxy has gone mad. Well done to anyone who is now multi-giga cred.

I got 0.7bil from Hudson and anticipate 0.3bil from Winters.
Not bad for 30k g1 data.

So, I did the math (thanks OpenOffice Calc ), and in total Hudson just handed out 7,167,496,808,000 credits... yes, you read that right, over 7 trillion credits.

For comparission: In 2020 the USA had (according to the wiki) a total revenue of ~6 trillion $...

So yeah... I think this CG might have cut a rather deep hole into the Federal budget

They have enough tax incomes from corpos all over the fedspace that are squeezing people dry on a wage slave jobs to fill this hole within a few months.

Given the level of inflation that would occur between now and then and current spending in the world, as well as the large number of taxable citizens the Federation has, they paid out chump change.

As someone said on the FDev forums: I came for the Kill Warrant Scanner, I stayed for the Fleet Carrier.
