DATE & TIME

Oct 18 - 26
Config active 24/7

OVERVIEW

Samura has taken the initiative to restart its superconductor research and development onboard Nansei Research Complex, scaling back anti-matter research in favor of negating Liberty’s embargo on vital materials for Kusari’s jump drives. Pulling it’s strings within the Bretonian crown, the Empire has leveraged the Dublin Campaign jump bridge to request the best materials Bretonian smelters have to offer. And while such a move has not been without opposition, security guarantees by the Kusari Office of Intelligence have put all but the most ardent opponents on the back foot.

Meanwhile, the Liberty Security Force has not been idle, despite some setbacks on the home front. The LSF have launched a number of undercover operations of questionable success rate in the past year, with one exception. Prior cooperation with the Blood Dragons which allowed the delay of the jump bridge has developed over time into a solidifying, yet cautious, partnership. The local LSF Directorate has marked a number of high end weaponry for export to the Dragons in exchange for an enhanced and determined campaign against Nansei. These shipments, taken straight from the production lines of the vaunted Detroit Munitions, should allow to draw attention away from the Galileo Flashpoint, and delay the jump drive program.

Activity within Kyushu, the Taus, and Galileo will surely reach a high point as blockade runners scramble away from law enforcement patrols while Samura convoys battle against motivated "pirates" and Dragon raiders. Bretonia has tightened enforcement within their territory and has issued an advisory of unsafe travel conditions within the Tau region. However, with existing commitments on the Dublin front and fresh Omega developments, it is unable to operate more than token patrols in the defense of its new partners in trade. With substantial incentives provided on both sides of the contest, only time will tell which investments will pay off when the strategical battlefield will turn tactical in the systems bordering Galileo.

Smugglers, assemble, I have a evil plan.

Discovery is a server of dreams.
And I'm a big dreamer.

Do the trade commodities require a specific ID for the bonus? Or just anyone that can dock on the source and destination?

Nice. The bonuses are running from midnight to 0800 in +10 GMT time. Another event I won't be able to fully participate in. Why am I not surprised?

At least the points count towards the prizes I guess.

I've lost people who meant the world to me...and I'm still doing just fine.

I'm coming for everything they said I couldn't have.

Outside of active hours, you will get points and credits for both kills and trading. They will be lower than during active hours however.

Quite frankly, that's bullshit. Every event is setup for only UTC. I understand having one event window there as the majority of Discovery players exist in that time zone but only having it in that time zone is wildly unfair to those in the US and Oceania and has consistently been done in that manner.

That's fine, I'll just not participate again. No point in bothering when others will out pace me due to their bonuses.

This requires 37 hours of nonstop powertrading over the span of a week, assuming you fly a 5k transport on the shorter route with zero interference. Pretty sure there's places where a full time job is going to be easier on you.

I really think you should reconsider.
