Hmm... seems like FDev, by accident, revealed next weeks CG too



If that's not getting altered again I will certainly NOT support the one recommended by Senator Scordato...

Why you think it's an accident? CGs are normally announced Thursday afternoons.

Read the description text more closely... it's not related to the Kumo Crew's intent to create a new drug.

Rival candidates have requested deliveries of data to promote their bids to lead the Marlinist Consulate.

The Marlinist Colonies are voting for who will be elected as their prime consul. This influential role will diplomatically represent all Marlinists and make broad decisions on their behalf.

The first candidate is Verity Dexter from the Marlinism Reformation Party, which is acting as the NMLA political wing. She has the support of Senator Lorcan Scordato to be made an Imperial patron:

"I am in a unique position to finally provide our people with a voice in the Imperial Senate, and to speak for Neo-Marlinists. As prime consul, I will negotiate a permanent peace with the NMLA."

The second candidate, Kayode Tau of the Free Marlinist Movement, is focused on sustaining the Marlinist Colonies:

"Neo-Marlinism and terrorism have no place within our republican ideals. I will strive to keep our systems independent, and to protect the rights of peaceful Marlinists everywhere."

In order to support Kayode Tau and exclude NMLA representation, he has requested deliveries of , and to Tilman Point in the Hyades Sector Ro-P B6-6 system.

The Alliance, Empire and Federation have recognised the Marlinist Consulate as an ambassadorial body, and agreed that the election of its prime consul is a strictly internal matter.

The initiative begins on the 15th of July 3307 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, this campaign will end immediately.
Should both initiatives be completed to the same tier, the one with the highest contribution will be designated the victor.

Your initial wording is confusing. Let me fix that for you:

Yeah, something is wrong here. But, judging by this description... We can get ourselves an Azaladshu #2 within the Empire soon.

Ah. Thank you. Of course I can buy a wig, but... They're too unreliable during sharp combat manoeuvres.

I still need this brain. It's really not the best thing that I can have inside this head, but... I still see no options.

...and

Why I'm not surprised seeing bugs even here?.. (rhetorical/sarcasm)

Not even close. Azaladshu was Fednecks vs Seperatists in a Combat CG. Next week will be Marlinists vs Neo-Marlinists in who gets the Consulate position in a Data Gathering CG. The Empire is only indirectly involved.

Yeah, next CG is definitely not a combat one, but time will tell, they (FD) can make another 'riot' out of it after this one, to 'keep the score even', since Feds are weakened with Azaladshu incident.

If I had to take an educated guess on the next Combat CG including the Empire, taking today's leak into consideration as well, I would say it'll be an attempt to arrest Senator Lorcan Scordato by decree of the Emperor as he supported the candidate of the NMLA, making him a terrorist sympathizer... which would make it a Muhdrid-CG Part #2

Anyone know where to take bounty missions for Pegasi Sector PN-T c3-14 (Community Goal)?

It may be something like an 'uprising' in several Imperial systems, similar to what we had in Azaladshu, with a backstory about people being totally unhappy with any results of this 'rather peaceful' CG. I know that it may look sloppy in terms of lore, but seems logical from the 'superpower balance' side.

I guess that would mean that the Empire is falling apart and that we should prepare for its immediate demise?

As we have discussed this week already: When Imperials are really unhappy they flock together to support another senator/patron/client on the fly. So: No, the Empire will endure and easily outlast the Federation.
