No kidding....
Threat update!:
My dear friends from the Persean League stopped by, and we had lots of unrequested fun.
Several rowdy groups turned up on my doorstep and started making a nuisance of themselves.
And proceeded to make quite a scene while completely overwhelming the invited guests and turning them into charming debris fields. How rude.
This time however, I actually managed to be present when trouble turned up and took action with my surplus of hammers.
End result:
- Station - Intact
- Colony - Untouched
- Defence Fleets - 95% destroyed
- Local Traders - 100% menaced
- Own Fleet - No losses - 5 recovered ships (no Conquests, got the doom tho)
- Reputation - Now standing at -3 with 27 lost! 9 separate engagements supporting either defence fleets or the station
A single world cannot stand alone.
Multi-world systems seem to be essential to autonomy at the moment, as a single fleet HQ just cannot form enough fleets to even slow these guys down, let alone repel them.
Hegemony still incoming.

H fleet was.... A lot of trivial ships + 5 Onslaughts.
Tried to avoid engaging at all this time. Fleets seemed to do okay-ish, but just couldn't keep up so some got through.
I really wish the patrols wouldn't all rush into battle at the first sign of the enemy, leaving the station to fend for itself.
So I hung back there to support it against what was left.
2 Onslaughts actually rammed the station. Burn drive right into it.
Did a fair bit of damage, but didn't manage to destroy it. Thankfully.
And I managed to 'lose' my flagship to being flanked by a battleship while paying attention to another. How embarassing.
Result:
- Station - Intact
- Colony - Untouched
- Defence Fleets - 95% destroyed (again)
- Own Fleet - 1 loss - 1 recovery - 1 salvaged Onslaught
- Reputation - Now at 40 with 3 lost. 1 engagement supporting station
- Dignity - Tarnished
And lol. Can't even turn off free port to try and reduce the aggro. -50K.
Guess I'm not going exploring then....
