Greetings Commanders,

Thank you for all your feedback so far during the Thargoid war. Since the recent update we have been carefully monitoring your progress and making note of all the data available.

As a result we will be releasing a server side change tomorrow (Thursday 6th June 2024) with the following alterations:

• Spire system spread pushback no will no longer target Alert systems
• Uninhabited Alert systems are now less challenging to contest
  • Additionally, alternative activities to Orthrus hunting within these systems (e.g. escape pod rescues or interceptor hunting) have received significant boosts to war contribution.
• Basilisk, Medusa and Hydra interceptor types have received further boosts to war contribution
• Scout types have received a significant boost to war contribution

In addition:

• The spire system in Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 incorrectly received spread pushback from another spire system. Spire systems should always be immune to any form of spread pushback, so this was unintentional.
  • On the Thursday turn, Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 will have 25% removed from progress, and 25% will be added to the next furthest system, Hyades Sector ST-Q b5-2

We hope with these changes, you find it easier to go on the offensive against the Thargoid threat
