Breaking The Outbreak

[IronLich]

Description:
It seems that good things just don't last long for the People's Quivira for Equality Party. On the tail of their military defeat, a generous act of goodwill by the supporters of Aisling Duval helped them back on their feet, and Patreus pardoned them for the failures of their government.

Unfortunately, limited access to medical care during their flight has lead to an outbreak of treatable diseases among the populace.

As such, Aisling's Angels are calling on all loyal Impeial citizens to help our brethren in the People's Quivira for Equality Party rebuild their lives. They have suffered enough.

In an effort to encourage the delivery of some much needed Basic Medicine, the Angels are currently offering a bonus incentive scheme which is open to all pilots willing to help combat the spread of this horrific outbreak.

System: Persephone
Station: Lambardelli’s Legacy
Objective: Sell Medicines to Lambardelli’s Legacy
How: Buy from High Tech and Industrial stations
Ends: 30 May 3301 19:00

i'm happy to drop down there and cart a few loads, if someone who's already there can confirm it's suitable for large ships/pads - if it's not, i'll bring a medium instead

Hi There, I'm new to the community goals. For the trading goals, are the stations to purchase the supplies from typically nearby, and are they easy to find? Or alternatively do you need to ship them in from far away. Any tips on how to find the source stations easily? Thank you!

It's a Clipper for me, but sounds like it's worth the trip, heading over too...

Hello Guiness. Welcome to elitepve and to community goals.

Typically you'll need to purchase supplies from a different star system (though occasionally/rarely you can get them in the same system). It depends on your ship, and whether or not it can land at an outpost. Small/medium ships up to 120 tonnes cargo space can usually find sources within a single jump though bear in mind all sources can potentially dry up. Larger ships often use sources many jumps away. They're easy to find if you use Thrudd's Trading Tools website!

Bear in mind that community goals can be trading, combat or exploration based. You will tend to find that a trading CG rewards you based on total tonnage, not your trading profit. Very often, your reward will be more than the trading profit you made.

Your rewards (that are additional to your profits) depend on two things: (a) how far the community is to fulfilling the overall objective, and (b) how your contribution to the goal ranks compared to all other contributors. With (a), there are thresholds or 'tiers', and everyone's rewards increase as higher and higher tiers are reached. With (b), your contribution is ranked as being in the top 5% of contributors, the top 15%, the top 40%, the top 70% or the top 100% (the also-rans), and the rewards you'll get at the end depend on that ranking.

You must sign up at the station running the goal before you can contribute. And when the event is over, you must claim your reward from that station.

Bear in mind also that a community goal finishes when one of two things happen. Either it reaches a deadline without the overall objective being achieved, and merely expires or times out. Or the overall objective is actually reached. Whichever happens soonest will cause the event to finish.

Fly safely commander!

On my way, don't know what to fly since I am in my Vulture right now. Let's see, and see you around.
Anyone needing an escort drop me a note in-game.

Any hints where to buy the stuff?

Hello Guiness. Welcome to elitepve and to community goals.

Thanks for the detailed post, what a great rundown of information! See you in space!

I'm sure by now you're already transporting, but if not, there's a station under 15ly from Persephone selling Basic Medicines for ~206Cr which should net you 700Cr/T once you sell it at Persephone.

As of an hour ago, my first 216T delivery got me in the top 100%. Second got me to 70%. Fourth got me to 40% which is where I am after 10 deliveries.
