Squad Update:

War started again in Yemaia (leading 1-0).

Potentially overheating in 7 systems

Still trying to build our influence in 7 (other) systems.

NOT looking to start another expansion until we know what the Caustic Cloaca’s are up too (and maybe not even after).

Please remember to mark the standing orders post with the appropriate emoji when doing BGS work. This not only helps others see what has already been done, so they can better decide where to apply their efforts, there MAY just be a little contest going for the month of November…

All details in the #standing-orders and/or the #loose-screws-factions channels of the Discord.

Thargoid Bug Report:

Another shoutout to CMDR Borqed_Bits, hero of the realm

Operation Bronze Medal - what can I say?

In the final hours several squads made big final pushes, including 2 we weren’t even watching

…But so did we. dropping approx 96 billion in the final 4 or 5 hours.

Chig: Our very last run at the mega ship last night was to kill one last 'goid and call it. A clops dropped...we couldn't end on that! We then had a double drop of 'dusa and basi, then a basi, then a basi. With who we had in there that last hoorah got us 780m. Margin of victory was 778m. We only needed the clops…

If you contributed even a single cyclops kill this season, you mattered!

Anarchy Extinction Bug: the SALVAGE mission SCAVENGER NPCs are still attached to local anarchy and not some neutral pirate faction. You can still be sent on missions by an anarchy faction where you have to murder that faction's NPCs to complete it. (raised by Naboo)

Previously reported as fixed by FDev, it was apparently only fixed for retrieval and protect missions.
