Westfalen Event - Liberty versus Rheinland

[Cannon]

RP posts will appear about this in due course. For now here's the situation. As most people here will be aware, in a recent surprise raid Liberty captured the Battleship Westfalen in Hamburg (so surprising even the LN didn't know about it.)

Liberty, specifically the LN and its allies are trying to refit and repair the Westfalen so that they can use it as a base to expand their operations in Hamburg. To do this, they need to deliver supplies to the ship. The RM and its allies will try to stop this by destroying the ships trying to deliver the supplies.

The LN has 7-10 days to deliver these supplies. If they do it within this time, something will happen. If they do not succeed, something different will happen.

10000 x Crew
100000 x Superalloys
100000 x Ship Hull Panels
100000 x Engine Components

To deliver the supplies, land any ship at the base and sell the cargo. You will see a message like:

If you see no message or "mission objective completed" then the base requires no more supplies of the particular type.

The above quantities are something of an experiment. I'm not sure if they are too much or little. Results will be published daily and we might adjust the numbers if they prove to be too unbalanced in one direction or another.

Good luck to you all.

* delivery != deliver, gah i'm getting tired.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)

I assume this system will also have something to do with player bases as well?

Regardless of that, awesome work, Cannon!

I see a problem here.

1 unit of Spaceship Crew takes up 1 unit of space in your cargo hold.
$2,066 Planet Hamburg Rheinland Federal Police Hamburg Rheinland

As result of the undocking hack, to prevent kills for people who undocks from a base/planet, there is also no chance to CD those.
Do they really only need 2 Storks full of Spaceship crews to fulfill the first mission object?

Edit: Note, it's only one lane, and they cannot be cd'ed

We make the rules, you follow them.

It's for the lulz, it doesn't really matter...

If I made that a bigger number, people would say "lol the westfalen holds 10000000 crew, this doesn't make any sense."

Also, I hope people to not pick up crew from Hamburg to deliver to a LN base. That would be odd.

Question, Cannon, does this mean people are free to blast any transport heading for Westfallen with said goods, without fear of sanction report? Talking about Rheinland Military killing Independent Traders and the likes, that is.

Heck yes. Kill them all - but only in Hudson, Bering, Hamburg and maybe california. Killing them in New London would likely be out-of-rp.

Because the goods have no special prices, I don't expect power traders to do this run.

If there will something happen, I would of course say, it does matter.
Also:

• Super alloy sold on Alster
  
• Engine components from Oder (Through the JH)
  
• And Ship Hull Panels from Kreuzberg/Dortmund (Through the JH)
  

A bid crap, eh?
If you really want to test a delivery mission, can't you include an origin query for that cargo?

Also, I hope people to not pick up crew from Hamburg to deliver to a LN base. That would be odd.

You hope, but I'm sure some of them will do it.
