[Weekend Event] - Unlikely Friendships [Completed] - sindroms - 10-06-2016

The event is now over!

Once again, a great big kudos to @Karst who let me borrow his ore-price-comparison-to-regular-cargo-and-price-per-minute-travel-thing-spreadsheet in order to balance this event.


ATTENTION: DUE TO HOW THE PLUGIN WORKS, DO NOT TRY SELLING YOUR CARGO PIECE BY PIECE. IF YOU BUY 400 UNITS, YOU MUST SELL 400 UNITS TO GET THE BONUS.

DESCRIPTION

In the recent past we have used events to bring attention to diplomacy changes between major powers. This happened with the Refugees - Delegates route between Rheinland and Liberty and this weekend we will have a similar, albeit much-much shorter event to get people acclimated with the recent diplomacy changes between the Nation of Malta (Outcasts) and the Kingdom of Bretonia.

If you would like to read more information about what led to this change in diplomacy, please refer to the following threads:

While the event is mostly intended for this purposes, it will also provide traffic and activity within the Bretonia-Gallia-Kusari junction and will be beneficial for any faction operating in the area. That and, you know, money.



Event was constructed for the following IDs:
All IDs in the immediate ZOI

Please keep in mind that the prices for the cargo might be changed due to balance reasons.



This event may or may not be complimented with a combat event.

Got a question about the don't sell different quantity than what you purchased:

If I say cargo pirate a 5K transport for 2K cargo, will he still get the event plugin bonus for the 3K he has left if he sells them to the event base?


RE: [Weekend Event] - Unlikely Friendships (Bretonia-Outcasts) - sindroms - 10-06-2016

No. Any cargo that was not gotten via legit means (bought at the start, sold at the end) will not receive the full 7k and 8k bonus.
If you stole the cargo, you will only get 4500 credits per unit at any of the bases.

EDIT: I misread that. And they should, yes.

You got it wrong, Spazzy. My question was will the guy who purchased it legitly get the bonus for his left over, or will me pirating him for 2K cargo ruin the 3K he has left? I want to know how much of a d*ck move it is to cargo pirate in such an event.

EDIT: I got a junker pirate that I use to cargo pirate, but if taking any cargo from a transport ruins the rest of the cargo for them I'd probably stick to demanding credits.

EDIT2: Ok cool, that's what I wanted to know, thanks.

It would be nice to •REC some of the actions and make the diplomatic story behind the event Smile
Maltese - Bretonia Unlikely Friendships ?


RE: [Weekend Event] - Unlikely Friendships (Bretonia-Outcasts) - Freeport7 - 10-07-2016

Will these goods be considered legal or ilegal in Bretonia and Malta?


RE: [Weekend Event] - Unlikely Friendships (Bretonia-Outcasts) - sindroms - 10-07-2016

Both are legal in Bretonia, sure.
Elsewhere however...
