In the end we achieved 78% consolidation. Felicia Winters declined to prep-race and has instead prepared Polecteri, where triggers are against her. In response to this skullduggery we amused ourselves by delivering 70k merits to the scene of last week’s battle, Malgariji. Inara reports 20+ Cmdrs visiting in the last 24h, each one desperate to make Aisling expand to a loss-making system near Cubeo with no PMF. Though we are well used to the weekly attempts to force a damaging expansion to HIP 1572, the 5th column dishonourably deployed against us also spammed 50k prep merits to the novel location of Djakah. Granny Torval was more easily opposed in Dongkum, a feint to a system long-coveted by Winters.Īisling’s vote again came under attack. Late drops by ZH pledges were smaller than expected, at least one big hitter got caught up in PVP, and killed. ZYADA pilots had to deliver close to 800k opposition merits to stop him, more than twice the raw Federal total. After weeks of BGS activity to achieve favourable triggers, Zachary Hudson could not take Yemotepa.
