Isnt this a bit corsair-biased, the route looks shorter.
edit: Also the console mentions only Crete when you purchase the munitions.

We'll get you covered, I pm'd you.

Updated with the latest info - Outcasts need to buy from Kreuzberg, Corsairs from Lagos. Every other eligible id should be able to buy from either location.

Does this mean I could buy from Lagos and sell to Malta?
RE: [Official Event] A Delicate Balance: The Arms Race - Haste - 11-27-2023
No. The issue we ran into was that "neutral" IDs like Zoners and Junkers would only be able to "Sign up" for one of the two events, specifically the Corsair one, when buying from Kreuzberg. The event was set up with the assumption that you'd be signed up for both, but it turns out that that isn't how the plugin works. If you buy from Lagos, your destination is Crete. If you buy from Kreuzberg, your destination is Malta.
Lagos -> Crete is about two minutes shorter than Kreuzberg -> Malta, but that was already the case as Kreuzberg is also closer to Crete.

Why does the Corsair route seem to be shorter and safer?
Do new Zoner ID lines apply to OFs with their IDs?
RE: [Official Event] A Delicate Balance: The Arms Race - LuckyOne - 11-27-2023
Lagos is a mistake, Corsair start should have been set somewhere in Kusari territory. Outcasts now need to cross 2 Houses (3 even if they go around through Bretonia!) while Corsairs barely need to peek out of the Omicrons.
EDIT: Just realized with this change Corsairs are also safe from Rheinland forces, who would be their primary lawful opponents as they don't have ZoI in 13, which makes this even worse balance-wise.

RE: [Official Event] A Delicate Balance: The Arms Race - RedEclipse - 11-27-2023
You really need to lift restriction on Zoner IDs in Rheinland during duration of the event.

It's not that dramatic a difference. NB -> Frankfurt -> Sigma 15 -> Sigma 17 -> Omicron Theta -> Omicron Alpha. It's only one more jump and it's through lanes. It's longer, yes, but given the last minute nature of the change it's not a big deal.
